What does war in Ukraine mean for African economies?

Some countries on the continent have close trading relationships with Russia and Ukraine

The war in Ukraine has now entered its third week.
Millions of people there have seen their lives torn apart during that time.
And we鈥檝e heard the stories of African students who had to flee when Russia invaded.

So, what might the economic impact be for countries in Africa?
