As the world faces economic difficulties, such as depleting dollar reserves and uncontrollable devaluation of local currencies, discussions on reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar have gained momentum. Known as "de-dollarization," this shift has become a focal point in global talks.
India has emerged as a prominent advocate of de-dollarization, with the Indian rupee set to become the official currency of South Asia.
As geopolitics intensifies in Indo-Pacific, a United States nuclear-armed ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) made a rare visit to South Korea.
The visit comes as both nations initiated talks to coordinate their responses in the event of a nuclear war with North Korea.
North Korea held mass rallies in Pyongyang where people shouted slogans vowing a "war of revenge" to destroy the United States, as it marked the 73rd anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War, state media reported on Monday.
