Thanks for the excellent summary, the link and the podcast with PeatInteresting article below. It contends that China & Russia see the coming crash of the global dollar financial system and dont want to go down with the ship. It explains China stockpiling commodities last year, as a way to get rid of dollars.
While Putins war had many causes (Nato, nasis etc), one of the foreseen beneficial outcomes was that sanctions would quickly wean Russia's exposure to the dollar economy, and would force Russian businesses to turn away from the West, something Putin would not have been able to do by himself.
China's current illogical lockdown in Shanghai are possibly designed to block up the global supply chains. This will be another nail in the Western economy's coffin.
