India has banned wheat exports. The ban comes into force immediately, RIA Novosti writes, referring to a message from the Ministry of Trade and Industry of India.
The fact is that the sudden jump in world wheat prices, "caused by many factors," threatens the food security of India and other countries. Therefore, the Indian government is "committed to ensuring the food security of India, neighboring and other vulnerable developing countries."
Meanwhile, Zelensky is going out of his way to "return Ukrainian grain to the world market."..
It's easy to manage when the Great white chief in Washington decides everything for you.
Interesting events... Let's see - The load capacity of the grain truck is 30t. The load capacity of the wagons is 60 and 90 tons. How to export 20 million tons of grain without the sea in such situations is generally unclear.
So the idea for the West is clear: Russia will obviously seize everything. Let's take out all the food while we can, let the russians feed these ukros later, reducing their exports and giving grain to Ukraine for free instead of currency.
But the Russian Federation has exactly the opposite idea, apparently. Close the sea, fuck up the railway and all the fuel and while the ukrainian grain will be locked up in Ukraine and available only to the ukrainians themselves - cut the loot for record prices for bread on world markets.
And when all the ports and part of the granaries will already come under the control of the Russian Federation and the ports will work again. Well.. There it will be possible to raise money for the restoration of Ukraine, including from the sale of surplus ukrainian grain already by the forces of the Russian Federation, and not by the forces of the United States.
And it makes no sense for russians to make ukrainians starve at the same time. Russia is just exactly satisfied with the shortage on the world market and cosmically high prices.
But the control of ports and the position "If you want all debts of Ukraine to the West to be forgiven and at the same time there is an opportunity to trade your grain with the whole world again - go to our side!"
This is quite a carrot. The West is offering them all new debts, and Russia is controlling the opportunities for ukrainians to make at least some kind of profit and make ends meet.
I should be king of the world, so smart I am!
