The Governor stressed that the US will have no political or financial power to press sanctions once the alternative payment system is out. “A big portion of the world is always under threat of US or European sanctions. And it’s in their interest to create an alternative system. The initial promise or purpose of SWIFT wasn’t to be used in the sanctions system, and they changed the rules.”

She added, “My sense is that an (BRICS) alternative to SWIFT would have happened a long time ago if it had been weaponized. We are holding discussions on the interaction of such platforms. But here the interest and technical readiness of our partners are important,” she said.
