Ukraine War and How will this Effect Africa? Part 2

Europe has to rapidly find alternatives to Russian gas, and the most reliable alternatives are in Africa. It's a great opportunity for African states to move in, and get new deals done quickly," said Patrick Smith, editor of the UK-based Africa Confidential publication. He said the biggest danger Africa faced was from the likely rise in bread prices, as Russia and Ukraine supply about 30% of the world's wheat. The Maghreb countries - Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Libya and Algeria, which rely heavily on wheat - could be worst-affected by the tightening of supplies and an increase in prices," What about Africans studying in these countries? As both countries have affordable tuition fees a and Ukrain ties with Africa dates back to the Soviet era, Ukraine is a prime destination for African students, with thousands studying at its universities - especially medicine. Other Africans also live and work in Ukraine. The African countries with the most students in Ukraine are Morocco (8,000), Nigeria (4,000) and Egypt (3,500). They constituted - as the pan-African publication Quartz points out - almost 20% of all foreign students studying in Ukraine in 2020. But the National Union of Ghana Students called on the government to arrange for their evacuation, saying the war demands a response similar to that taken when the coronavirus pandemic first hit. "We believe the model used for the evacuation of students from China at the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic could be adopted in this instance as well," it said in a statement. Lets put our trust in the Almighty that this war is resolved peacefully and the word can have peace. Regardless of how you feel about this conflict does not matter.The world has just spent two years coming to term with a Covid-19 and the lat thing we need is another war.
