It's a great question.
I think there are two different angles that China is taking away from this. One is obviously concern, because I think they're seeing how strongly the west has banded together on this, especially on financial sanctions. They don't want to be in a scenario like that, where they would also suffer from those sanctions, especially on technology, for example. Technology is the gasoline that makes the Chinese economy go. If we were able to effectively cut off a lot of that technology to China, I think it would be an economic nightmare for them. I think they're getting that lesson.
At the same time, I think they're seeing some of the weaknesses and trying to exploit those as well. One example is how they're taking advantage of the cheap energy prices to buy Russian gas and oil at 30% discounts. There is a story that they're selling off U.S. shale LNG contracts now to our allies in the region, such as Japan and South Korea, at market prices, while at the same point getting 30% discounts on Russian gas. The double irony is that part of that is our LNG, because it's our LNG that goes down through the United States, and China is profiting off that, and profiting off the war in Ukraine.
There are two sides to the story, I think.
