The Chinese consulate general in Odesa was hit by Russian missiles on July 20 following the Kremlin’s pull-out from the deal that provides Ukrainian grain to hundreds of millions of Asians.

In addition to damage at the port terminal where grain for China was stored, a second attack has now resulted in damage to the Chinese consulate.

    China is probably ok with it because it increases instructionsinstability as you said and also by causing refugees.

    Famine in Africa and the Middle East will decrease stability in Europe by creating many more refugees.

      So far the Ukrainians that came to EU seem to be the best thing that could happen to us and our workforce.

      About Africa… I get your point but China has economic interests there and extraction of resources will become a lot harder when governments lose their grip in power. They want to bribe another faction. A famine will firstly destabilise Africa, middle East, Asia and South America and only then Europe.

      All of those regions are big importers of China’s products and will be forced to spend more on food and less on imports from China.

      They start to understand that Russia’s invasion caused increased prices of energy and food. The standing in the latest votes on the Ukraine war reflect what leaders around the world are thinking about Russias actions.

      This isn’t a geopolitical Masterplan. It’s more like a short sighted rage fit from Putin.
