The Economic Banking Cyber War Phase begins in Ukraine vs. Russia
Did Putin foresee being cut off from the SWIFT Banking system so quickly after his move?
RT is reporting that we are almost there. President Putin launched his “denazify” campaign in Ukraine to the shock and surprise of even Ukrainians that he actually did send his troops in. This phase was the military phase and it is still on going, but we are now entering the even more dangerous phase.
Former Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said in 2019 that disconnecting Russia from SWIFT would be akin to “a blow in the stomach” and would be “essentially a declaration of war.”
The next phase is the war of the Banksters. Russia is about to be booted from SWIFT, the inter banking arrangement the Global Banksters use to send and receive transfers. Russia is now going to be turned into a pariah state, cut off from everything. This phase means we now enter the economic cyber phase of the war.
Russian Banks will be sanctioned, assets will be seized, markets will tank, computer viruses will paralyze systems, and so on.
However, the Russian response is what makes the rest of the story more interesting. Because now for Russia one of the only moves left to is to fully embrace Crypto, Declare American Hegemony over, and Ditch the US Dollar in coordination with China and new members of the Anti-NATO Bloc that Russia now leads.
The Death of the Dollar and the Oil or Natural Gas for Dollars Trade will die a sudden death. One of the many victims this war will produce.
This time Europe and North America and the industrialized west should prepare for the blowback phase of the Putin’s little misadventure into Ukraine.
SWIFT preparing to disconnect Russia

The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) announced on Saturday that it was preparing to comply with orders from Western powers to disconnect Russia from its financial system.
In a statement to Reuters, SWIFT said it was “engaging with European authorities to understand the details of the entities that will be subject to the new measures” and was “preparing to comply upon legal instruction.”
The European Commission, France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States issued a statement on Saturday announcing that “selected Russian banks” would be “removed from the SWIFT messaging system” in response to Russia’s offensive in Ukraine.
The Western powers also announced that the Russian Central Bank would be prevented “from deploying its international reserves in ways that undermine the impact” of their sanctions.
Several years ago, after members of NATO previously considered disconnecting Russia from SWIFT, Moscow warned at the time that such a decision would be seen as a declaration of war.
Former Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said in 2019 that disconnecting Russia from SWIFT would be akin to “a blow in the stomach” and would be “essentially a declaration of war.”
