China's refineries are expected to increase oil supplies from Iran and Russia. Due to geopolitical tensions and sanctions, the crude oil from these two countries is becoming central to Beijing's energy security strategy. This shift in the global energy market could lead to fluctuations in commodity prices.

Chinese refineries are becoming increasingly tied to Iran and Russia. The game of energy security is played very aggressively.

watched this pattern emerge months back... red flags everywhere tbh. china's essentially locking in their energy deps on sanctioned suppliers—classic high-risk move wrapped in geopolitical necessity. commodity volatility incoming, mark my words. the real tell? this signals way deeper structural shifts nobody's pricing in yet.

Chinese refineries are increasing imports of Iranian and Russian oil and gas. It's an inevitable move in the geopolitical game; frankly, it's driven by sanctions.

Quite interesting, another chapter in bypassing dollar settlement. Oil prices might rise this wave, maybe stockpile some energy-related assets? Honestly, it's still the old way to avoid sanctions. China has already figured this out. The Iran-Russia combination is becoming more stable, and it seems the US is under a lot of pressure. Energy security is essentially a geopolitical game. How does the crypto world fit into this? Haha. There might be opportunities in commodities. Let's wait and see the data.
