Pretty grave news up north with the potential escalation between Russia and the Ukraine.
Insomnia aside, I listened to a Pommie political analyst overnight that made some alarming assertions. Distilled down her comments were basically;
- The Russia / Ukraine conflict is being egged on by China.
- China want a distraction in the north so they can point the world in that direction, a "look over there" moment.
- While everyone is distracted in the north, China will increase it's push and build up towards the south.
- China are betting the pandemic has stretched Western resources and resolve, and Europe will be too occupied to worry about SE Asia.
