To President Trump! September 18, 2025 Biden has "excluded Russia from SWIFT." As a result, countries like Russia and China have begun using barter payments instead of the dollar. This could lead to a decline in the value of the U.S. dollar as a "base currency." Countries like China and Russia are promoting barter payments to circumvent sanctions. Trump should urge Russia to rejoin SWIFT to prevent further "debasement" of the dollar.

 To President Trump!

September 18, 2025

Biden "excluded Russia from SWIFT." As a result, countries like Russia and Chi-na began using barter payments instead of the dollar. This could lead to a de-cline in the value of the US dollar as a "base currency."

Countries like China and Russia are promoting barter payments to avoid sanc-tions. Trump should urge Russia to rejoin SWIFT to prevent the dollar from fur-ther "deterioration."

Biden forced Russia to "invade Ukraine" and then, using sanctions as an excuse, excluded Russia from the international payment network SWIFT. This is a mis-management by the Biden administration.

Even during the Soviet era, Russia relied on barter due to a shortage of foreign currency. It imported steel products from Japan and paid for them with timber and diamonds.

Barter is a form of trade that existed before the existence of currency, and the hurdles to completing transactions are higher than monetary settlement. In Ja-pan, transactions can be easily completed by utilizing "trading companies."

On August 29, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued a prelim-inary injunction blocking the Trump administration's "reciprocal tariffs, unified tariffs, etc." Experts believe it is unlikely that the Supreme Court will overturn this ruling.

Before the Supreme Court's decision is announced, President Trump should quickly enact "new legislation" justifying the "Trump tariffs," in parallel with the trial.

The "new Trump tariffs" law should also incorporate "balanced countervailing duties." Balanced countervailing duties are a system in which Trump tariffs are imposed on the net import value of exports and imports.

This allows exporters in exporting countries to reduce their export tariffs to ze-ro by increasing imports from the United States. Conversely, the United States can increase its exports.

Let's take Nissan as an example. Nissan exports cars to the United States using a "pure car carrier." Then, on the return journey, it loads "vehicles such as GM Cadillacs" and imports them to Japan.

In this case, Nissan would receive a deduction from the export price of its cars. The difference, minus the import price of GM vehicles, will be subject to the "Trump tariffs." This benefits both countries.

In other words, the more Nissan imports from the U.S., the less tariffs it pays to the U.S. Although U.S. tariff revenue will decrease, the U.S. will "profit" from "exporting U.S. cars."

If Walmart purchases U.S. agricultural products, frozen foods, etc. and sells (exports) them to Chinese exporters, they will be able to import them from China without the "Trump tariffs." Consumers will be happy. Farmers will be happy, too.

President Trump should include "balanced countervailing duties" in the "New Trump Tariff Act." The higher the Trump tariffs, the more exports will undoubt-edly increase. Good luck, wise Trump.

Part 2. "Immigration Control Act Violation Cases" "Weekday Edition".

"Everyone" in the "international community" please help!

First, please read about the "false accusation" of "aiding and abetting violation of immigration law" in 2010.

❤Click below to read the full article!

https://toworldmedia.blogspot.com/

"Chapter 1". The summary of the incident is as follows.

In the fall of 2008, my company (I am the president) promised to hire "Chinese people studying abroad on student visas". I "issued" them "employment contracts" stating that "LEFCO" would "employ" them when they graduated from university the following spring.

However, after that, the "Lehman Shock" occurred in 2008.

As a result, orders for "system development" from the following year onwards were "cancelled".

As a result, "LEFCO" "cancelled" the "employment" of "those who were scheduled to join the company" in 2009.

Therefore, "they" continued to work at the restaurants where they had worked part-time as students even after graduating in 2009.

In May 2010, the Chinese were arrested for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act" by "activities outside of the status of residence".

In June 2010, after their arrest, I and the Chinese person in charge of recruitment (KingGungaku) ​​were also arrested.

The reason was "crime of aiding and abetting" the Chinese for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act (activities outside the status of residence)".

<Reason for arrest> The prosecution said that I and KingGungaku giving the Chinese a "false employment contract" constituted "crime of aiding and abetting" under the Criminal Code.

"Chapter 2". Crimes in the judgment: (arbitrary and ridiculous)

The charges in the indictment are "the very provisions" of "Article 22-4-4 of the Immigration Control Act".

If a "status of residence" is obtained by submitting false documents, the Minister of Justice can revoke the "status of residence" at his "discretion". (And the person will be deported).

Therefore, even if a Chinese person submits "false documents," it is not a crime. It is not a crime to "aid" an innocent act.

The "reason for punishment" in the judgment:

1. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" by submitting a "false employment contract."

2. And they violated the Immigration Control Act (activities outside of their status of residence).

3. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" because "we" provided the Chinese person with a "false employment contract."

4. The Chinese person was able to "reside" in Japan because he obtained "resident status."

5. Because of that, the Chinese person was able to "work illegally."

6. Therefore, "we" who "provided" the Chinese person with a "false employment contract" were punished for "aiding" the Chinese person's "activities outside of their status of residence."

This is an "error" in the arbitrary "logic of law."

This reasoning is the "argument" that "when the wind blows, the barrel maker (profits)." This goes against "legal logic" even internationally.

The "criminal reason" in the indictment cannot be a crime because the provisions of the "Immigration Control Act," which is a "special law," take precedence over the "Criminal Code," which is a "general law."

My argument:

"1": The Immigration Control Act stipulates that the Minister of Justice will revoke the act of a foreigner who has obtained a residence status by submitting false documents (Immigration Control Act: Article 22-4-4, cancellation of residence status) through "administrative disposition." That's all.

"2": The Chinese who engaged in "unqualified work activities" are not guilty. The reason is that their "employers" have not been punished for the "crime of aiding and abetting illegal employment" under Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act.

Therefore, under the principle of "equality under the law," the Chinese are not guilty.

The Japanese government has punished "diplomats and Philippine embassy staff" for the exact same "criminal reason."

However, like the Chinese government, the Philippine government is also silent.

The rest will be published in the Saturday edition.

Part 3. Special Zone Construction. A new business model.

Special Zones accept refugees and immigrants as temporary immigrant workers and limit their residence to the special zone.

Developed countries use them as low-wage workers and achieve high economic growth again.

Refugees and immigrants can get jobs and live a hopeful, humane life.

Temporary immigrants are low-wage, but "food, clothing, shelter, medical expenses, and education are free."
