The US dollar fell to its lowest point in 52 weeks, after Robert Fisk’s report suggested it could be dumped as the top currency for oil trade. Though some have strongly denied his claim, Fisk told RT it was expected.

On Monday, British newspaper The Independent published Fisk’s report claiming that China, Russia, France, Japan and some Gulf states had held secret talks to replace the greenback.
