CHINA AND GLOBAL FOOD SECURITY DYNAMICS AMIDST THE RUSSIAN INVASION OF UKRAINE
Abstract
This paper aims to investigate how China is handling national security and wheat production amid international sanctions in 2022. The study employs the Food Security Theory and Supply Chain Theory, utilizing qualitative research methods for a comprehensive analysis. The research concludes that the significant diplomatic tension between Russia and Ukraine on February 24, 2022, has economic implications for both countries. China's main goal is to maintain stability and economic growth. The Ukraine-Russia relationship is marked by instability in the global market, with the Ukraine-Russia trade deficit causing tension. China's desire to diversify and increase trade with Russia will help China diversify its trade with other countries, resulting in a larger global trade surplus. Wheat is a popular food product in China used for both consumption and human consumption. Wheat also contains amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients for human consumption. It is a significant food product in China, with a wide range of products and inputs. The consumption of wheat in China has led to increased domestic consumption, influencing the country's economy and driving domestic consumption.
