“We are likely to witness the creation of a supranational reserve currency … which will be used for international settlements…The existing currency system is not ideal. There is a range of risks, including inflation risks,” Medvedev said.

Remember that Russia is not part of the Rothschilds’ cabal, so it is outside of thier sphere of influence. Medvedev may just be able to pull this off.
