The geopolitical risks involved for any international company is at the top of my list of concerns, especially in light of the confiscation of property of both Russia's assets and any private Russian citizens assets. Add the extreme sanctions, the destruction of the pipeline, and the sneers at how the west fooled Putin with the Minsk agreements, making it clear they never intended to keep them, and then try to view it all through the eyes of China.
The west now seems determined to goad China with public statements, which gives the leadership there no choice but to show their strength by not backing down. All of this is so strange to me, as though the world leaders seem determined to have another world war. Ten years ago we were all happily doing international trade and now this?
These are very dangerous times. Perhaps it makes sense to someone, but it doesn't to me. I hope our little company makes it through all of coming headwinds.
