Hi guys, recently I purchased mi thermostat but I didn't know that I need a hub for it to be part of the automation.

My question is , my humidifier is CN region, I'm using CN mi home for 90% of my Xiaomi products.

Can I get a Global Mi home hub to connect the thermostat and activate the humidifier when needed ? Or must have CN hub only can do that?

Debating whether to get the home hub 2 or the Smart speaker with ir blaster. Currently I have the tuya IR blaster that works with Google assistant.

For Xiaomi home can't work with assistant since mi home CN can't link with Google assistant
