Russia-Ukraine conflict: How continued tensions can impact South Africa's economy negatively in future

In more news about the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Briefly News earlier reported that on Thursday morning, 24 February, Russian President Vladimir Putin realised the fears of many world leaders and Ukrainian citizens by announcing that Russian soldiers would be invading Ukraine.

The Russian president also warned other world leaders that should they try to intervene in his efforts, they could face severe consequences. Putin's decision comes after months of speculation that Russia was making preparations to invade Ukraine by establishing military training posts near Ukrainian borders.

While the Russia-Ukraine conflict might seem far removed from South Africa it is important to note that tensions between the two countries could have an economic impact on the country. The impact started relatively fast and within a day of the invasion, the price of Brent crude oil started trading at $100 per barrel.
