According to Odaily Planet Daily, U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen said that the U.S. dollar is and will continue to be the world's main reserve currency. It is vital to the United States. The status of the U.S. dollar is based on strong macroeconomic performance, low inflation, sound institutions, strong capital markets, rule of law, and deep and liquid capital markets.

Yellen is confident in the dollar's position and will ensure that the United States remains on a sound fiscal path. It is very important to reduce the deficit in the coming years and keep the actual net interest cost of the debt close to historical levels and below 2%.
