I actually agree with that, yes. I wasn't thinking of any specific time when I typed that. But if it happened today I would agree.

Still, we have to acknowledge that often it's not the president pulling the strings. And we know full well which entity WOULD take swift action against any ruler who started accepting Euros as payment for oil. That is the entity that (usually) controls the president. And yes, in this case, I think it's possible that they might not control the current president. By all appearances it would seem they don't. He is an independently mega-wealthy political outsider with a different point of view than the corrupt DC establishment.
