  11. 🔴 Protests and strikes in #Iran over inflation and currency devaluation have spread from the capital, #Tehran, to several other cities on a third day of unrest.

    The protests began on Sunday after shopkeepers in Tehran's Grand Bazaar staged a strike when the Iranian rial hit a record low against the #US dollar on the open market.

    That's slightly naughty of him to say that.

    He knows that the #sanctions for those items can easily be busted by non-Chinese businesses around the world, whereby businesses in Central and #SouthwestAsia act as proxies/conduits for those sanctioned items, sending them direct to #russia after passage through their respective countries first.

    But #China must've increased their supply quite a bit for #Blinken to publicly call them out. Not that it'll have any affect on them doing it.
