> Don't start a war against neighbours or other neighbours might get angry
Those other neighbors themselves invaded many countries. They stole the money of other countries. Like Venezuela. They never had their assets stolen. Apparently, they subscribed to none of the moral values and ethics they have been advocating. So that argument doesn't count.
Those are currency reserves. Not the changes in the usage of currencies in international trade. But hey, don't let me disturb the comfortable numbness...
I don't see much movement into other currencies, just the usual fluctuation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reserve_currency#Global_curren...
"Other currencies" gained two percent point, I guess that's the Rupees the Ruzzians sold their oil for.
