Your country would be the first to suffer . It is always the weak and poor that suffer Most when there is a world crises. You can thank Putin for that.
War in Ukraine exacerbating food crisis in the Horn of Africa
The impact of the war in Ukraine is worsening the devastating food crisis for millions of people in the Horn of Africa, Islamic Relief is warning.Around 14 million people in Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya are already in urgent need of aid due to the region’s worst drought in almost 40 years. The failure of three successive rainy seasons has destroyed livelihoods and forced families to leave their homes in search of food and water.
Now, staple foods such as wheat are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive as trade routes from Ukraine and Russia are severely disrupted. Many countries in the region usually import 60-80 per cent of their wheat from Ukraine. With these imports disrupted, the price of bread and other staple foods is rapidly rising, affecting the poorest families most of all.
Aid agencies’ limited funds are being stretched further as prices rise. In Somalia, Islamic Relief has had to reduce the number of people receiving vital food deliveries at the start of Ramadan, because there is not enough funding to match the rising prices. One thousand families will not be able to receive food aid as a result.
Aliow Mohamed, Islamic Relief’s Country Director in Somalia, has recently visited camps in Baidoa, where people have fled the drought to try and find aid. Islamic Relief teams in the camps are providing food and shelter. He said:
“We’ve had to reduce our food distributions by 1,000 families because of the drastic increase in food prices since the start of the Ukraine war. Prices have risen by 30 percent, and the cost of a 25kg bag of rice has gone up from $15 to $22.
“Life inside the camps is tough, and some people do not eat for a day or two. People share the food they receive from aid organisations such as Islamic Relief because there isn’t enough aid for everyone. Last week a family told me that they did not eat for two days because their neighbours who used to give them food are no longer receiving aid. The situation is bleak.
“Children and women are most affected. I met one woman who had walked for a month to reach the camp and she was eight months pregnant. We are seeing a rise in cases of child malnutrition as food becomes increasingly expensive.
“Islamic Relief provides families with cash assistance so they can buy food in the local markets. $70 a month used to cover the basic food needs for a family of six people – now, because of rising prices, families need at least $100 a month.”
Islamic Relief is calling on international governments to act quickly and support efforts to address the growing hunger crisis in the region.
In Ethiopia, the drought and internal conflict has left huge numbers of people in need of food aid. Millions of people from the east of the country have had to migrate to the capital Addis Ababa to try and escape the drought, straining the city’s limited resources. Now the impact of the Ukraine crisis is pushing even more people into destitution.

China and russia already has agreement.
And its not IF...nato will definitely be in asia pacific since Russia is no longer a threat. As i said putin is helping Americans in a way no us administration were able achieve in last 2 decades.
Nato plus japan Australia and if others in asia also joins...it will be massive military power.
And It will be naive to think nato only target is russia but not china.

Russians captured more Javelins in Izyum. Reverse engineer and make thousands for their own use.

The recent statements by the Nato chief and senior US figures show that they don't want a short war. They want this to go on for a decade. They will discourage Zelenski to reach an agreement, and bleed the Russians to the last Ukrainian.
False flags like Bucha are meant to galvanise the Western populance to support this 'noble' cause i.e. the total destruction of the Ukraine essentially at the hands of Nato.
