Who tf is Lomborg? This is literally googleable. Look up “climate related deaths over time”. Stop denying science.

Ah, a Lomborg fan ... thanks for confirming that you are a climate denier and ignorant of the science of climate change.

Reply to comment by elshankar in Rupee races to replace dollar: Egypt latest entrant to club of countries wanting to trade in INR by CoolestGuyOnSaturn
Yes, you are correct as far as I have read. I just want to add some things. The exchange rate development between USD and IND is not as important for Egypt as the exchange rate development between IND and EGP, if that is their more important trading partner. Also the exchange rate to USD is not the same as the development of prices of Indian export goods. Just because the INR is losing value in comparision to USD, does not mean that you necessarily get less goods for the same amount from India. The USD might even be useless to you, if you can not pay the things you want to buy with it. As the arcticle says they faced "tremendous difficulties" (whatever that means) to make that mentioned trade in USD. It might not be possible the change your EGP to USD, or to change your USD to INR, or to pay in USD, or to obtain enough USD at all. However it will surly be possible to pay an indian company with INR. Tbh I don't know much about either of these countries, but India might not need USD now or in the future. Even if India has to subsidize it currently, it may be worth it for them to get rid of the USD and stop accepting it at all. I would also not make the mistake to think that the past is always representive for the future. Decision like these will give the INR more stability. I would also try to exclude third party currencies from my trades. Nothing is more valuable than an accepted currency that you control.

Unless you're talking about accelerating these tiny shitty drones to some percentage of the speed of light, any weight budget is much better spent on extra explosives.

Imagine being a "world power" and needing to go to Iran for weapons.

Plus India is developing a decent navy, which should stabilize the region a bit. But I expect at least 10 years before their currency calms down.

Definitely not I reckon, these soldiers need to be surrounded with symbolism that is personally important to the purpose of their fight to help with their morale after going through all that shit.

He's not moral (obviously) and clearly doesn't think of himself as the rapist that he is.

The empirical, scientific fact is that there are fewer and fewer climate related deaths each year. Are you a climate science denier?

Even being the Russian use case, Iran designed these as loiter munitions.

Of course not by American standards. Let the French police kill a protester. The French citizens would literally start launching nukes.

At least here in the US, there isn't. You can bankrupt your bank and the FDIC will bail out the customers while you can sell off your stock and make millions.
