And
Stood out to me.
Nothing political about liquidation of holdings in a nation of bullies that you're currently pissing off, nosiree.
So the sold gold is still physically in the US.
On the one hand they say they want the bullion in their possession in France.
On the other hand, they are saying it’s too much of a bother to transport. Which makes its value questionable if it is too far to ship conveniently. It’s somewhat contradictory.
The value was in navigating the antisocial personality disorder of the United States.
lol right now France is pissing on the US and making them believe it's rain with all their moves
