The sixth component is that both countries must ensure the export of grain and fertilisers. The leader of South Africa noted that "one of the reasons for coming here was that Africa is also experiencing the negative consequences of this war. Our grain prices have increased, we also have a shortage of fertilisers, and their prices have increased."

Grains? What grains? The grains that were supposed to grow in the flooded areas? The grains that were supposed to grow irrigated with water from the dam?
Wait until the effects of what Russians did start to be felt in nations that depend on Ukraine for their grains supply. It's going to be "fun".

But meanwhile, you and your buddies ought to go back to trying to find ways to get out of the ICC just so your best friend Putin can come and visit, its gonna work out so well for South Africa. I'm convinced.

Africans don't deserve to have some mindless, corrupt morons lead them.

The grains that Russia and Russia alone was not letting out.

Yeah the lack of irrigation and wilder summers might cause literal deserts in the south of the country in the next couple of years.

I had low expectations regarding SA visit, but at the end the 10 points are really going in the right direction.
