林毅夫：美国若采取单边措施将推动更多国家改用人民币

Core Viewpoint - The potential replacement of the US dollar is not solely dependent on China, but rather on global needs, especially if the US continues to implement unilateral measures that create uncertainty in international trade and finance [1][4]. Group 1: Global Financial System - The current global financial and trade system is predominantly based on the US dollar, which serves as a measurement and reserve currency established post-World War II [3][4]. - China, as the world's second-largest economy and the largest trading nation, is concerned with both its own development and the stability of the global financial system [3][4]. Group 2: Renminbi Internationalization - If more countries begin to use the renminbi as a unit of account, it will be a natural evolution driven by global needs rather than a unilateral push from China [4]. - The use of renminbi in trade is seen as beneficial not only for China but also for countries that engage in trade with China, highlighting a mutual advantage [3][4]. Group 3: China's Role - China's primary focus is on its own economic development, aiming to become a significant force for global stability and development [4]. - The country does not seek to challenge the existing financial system unless faced with unilateral actions from the US that create instability [4].
