President Z is really getting out there and establishing a good number economic agreements. Say who needs the EU if Ukraine is establishing its own economic alliances
Its a back hand for the Moskali too since SA hates the Iranian terrorists who in turn are allied with the Moscow terrorists. Better yet, SA doesn’t need russia for anything if they get grain and weapons from Ukraine and the USA.
