The End of the Petrodollar Tie Between Saudi Arabia and the USA and its Consequences

The United States and Saudi Arabia have long been connected through the petrodollar agreement, but changes are on the horizon. These changes could impact energy markets, alliances, and global financial systems.

The Petrodollar Breakup

In June 2024, Saudi Arabia ended its exclusive petrodollar agreement with the USA, allowing the sale of oil in yuan, euros, and other currencies. This shift is part of the Vision 2030 plan, aimed at diversifying the country's economy.

Diplomatic Implications

Cutting ties with the petrodollar has altered the political landscape. Saudi Arabia signed an agreement with Iran, brokered by China, weakening US influence. Additionally, the Kingdom has declined to renew its security agreement with the USA.

Impact on Global Markets

Saudi Arabia's shift to other currencies raises concerns in global markets. Moving away from the dollar could lead to instability in international trade and affect global economic dynamics.

The changing relationship between the USA and Saudi Arabia could have significant political and economic repercussions. While Saudi Arabia seeks greater independence and diversification, it introduces new risks, particularly in security and investments.
