Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, early this morning declared the start of a “special military operation” in Ukraine. Minutes later, large explosions were visible near Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city. Blasts were reported in Kyiv, the capital, and other parts of the country. Ukraine’s Interior Ministry said that Russian troops had landed in Odessa and were crossing the border. (The New York Times – 24/02)
The intervention ordered by the Russian President Vladimir Putin this week increased the oil prices past $100 a barrel for the first time since 2014. Also, as of Thursday, the national average gas price in the U.S. is $3.54 a gallon, up from $2.65 just a year ago. And experts project gas prices could top $4. This could be a big problem for the EU. *
In addition, Ukraine is the world’s fifth-largest wheat exporter, agricultural analyst Alex Smith wrote last month in the journal Foreign Policy, and many of the countries that rely on its wheat “already face food insecurity from ongoing political instability or outright violence.” Yemen, for instance, imports 22% of its wheat consumption from Ukraine, Libya about 43%, Lebanon roughly half.

*The EU is the largest importer of natural gas in the world, according to the Directorate-General for Energy for the EU, with the largest share of its gas coming from Russia (41%). (CNBC)
