Wait, What: Russia, Ukraine Extend Grain Deal Despite Being At, You Know, War

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I’ve mentioned before, here, in comments, social media, and real life, that there’s a possibility that this who Ukraine-Russia war is a scam. The nations are bleeding the US, UK, and other EU nations dry of money and war material. Russia isn’t going hardcore at Ukrainian cities and assets. The war has rather bogged down. Ukrainians are going off on holiday at the beach and ski resorts. And now this

Russia and Ukraine extend grain deal despite disagreement

A deal allowing Ukraine to export millions of tonnes of grain through the Black Sea despite the ongoing conflict with Russia has been extended.

But it is unclear how long it will last, with Ukraine pushing for 120 days, and Russia calling for 60 days.

Russia has warned it will not allow the deal to go on longer unless sanctions against Moscow are softened.

The UN and Turkey helped broker the export agreement last July following fears of a global food crisis.

Ukraine is one of the world’s top producers of grain, but its access to ports in the Black Sea was blocked by Russian warships following the invasion in February last year.

They’re at war, right? Why would Russia allow Ukraine to export grain when the influx of revenue helps Ukraine? Does this sound like something two warring nations would do? Would the Allies have worked a deal to let the Axis powers export material? This is very strange.

Vassily Nebenzia, Russia’s ambassador to the UN, said on Friday that the EU, UK and US had two months to remove any sanctions targeting Russia’s agricultural sector if they wanted the deal to continue.

Moscow wants Russian producers to be able to export more food and fertiliser to the rest of the world, but says Western sanctions are preventing them.

So, it could be that Russia is using this to attempt to get their own sanctions removed, so they can sell more easily, but, really, most countries are ignoring the sanctions anyhow.

And, look, another wanker Republican by the name of Chris Sununu, governor of New Hampshire

Some of my GOP colleagues have lost their moral compass on Ukraine

“America First” does not mean “America Only.” It means putting our interests first — and that’s what opposing Russia in Ukraine does.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine is not a “territorial dispute,” as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis described it this month. Russia is engaged in a war against an innocent people, and it must be condemned. The United States of America is the greatest country on Earth, and we must stand with our allies around the globe to fight aggressive and dangerous regimes that threaten freedom wherever they are.

Simply opposing aid to Ukraine because President Biden supports it is not a viable foreign policy. To abandon Ukraine would set off a negative chain of events for U.S. interests domestically and abroad. Vladimir Putin is knocking at NATO’s doorstep, and without our support — and the support of our European allies — Ukraine will fall, resulting in far graver problems for the United States: conflict across Europe.

First, we oppose escalating support, as we do not know what the money is being used for or where it’s going, especially when we have post-COVID problems at home. Second, there seems to be no strategy or plan. Third, we’re dead set against send higher end weapons which could lead to a direct confrontation with Russia. Which Chris apparently doesn’t realize has lots of nuclear weapons. We do not oppose because Biden supports it, as lots of Republicans support this. We’re using logic, not feelings.

As far as those graver problems? Chris never gets into them. Just like the rest. If Ukraine falls, it would mean almost nothing.

      Gee, I wonder if they could be secretly working together>?????

      It’s all scripted, you and I aren’t in their club… All of them, Every country’s leaders are all working together to usher in their new world order and you and I are not included… Watch as they use Trump to divide America further… They are all in it together and the American people are so brain washed They can’t see the forest because of the corrupt political leaders who keep telling them everything they want to hear.

      Hopium is going to get you all killed.. Wake Up!

      One day your going to have to fight… or DIE! Why is everyone in denial to the point of not even having self preservation skills?

      You people just can’t be this stupid, are you?

        Of course the “war” is a sham..everyone of them is…bankers wars..in this case the CCP agent Bidung and Birther Huessin regime are using Ukraine to rob America and gut American military equipment until we reach the point that every last dime has been looted from America and laundered through the Ukraine back to our politicians and 1%ers…CONgress approves hundred of billions and it all unaccounted for ALWAYS…no need to look where it is going what it is being used for…Zelensky now has multimillion dollars mansions and he and his wife go on shopping sprees spending hundreds of thousands in an afternoon….you can bet Joe and the regime have padded their pockets too….yes, it’s a total sham…just like CONjob-19 where all those funds went to the 1%ers who grew their wealth by hundreds of billions while middle class last jobs and businesses and lives….fukk this dirty rotten Federal government and the filthy traitors in CONgress..

      RAND Corporation’s THINK TANK, which has a huge work force of 1,850 employees and a budget of $350 MILLION, has the official aim of “IMPROVING policies and decision-making through research and ANALy$I$”

      It is primarily connected to the UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT of DEFENCE and is infamous for having been INFLUENTIAL IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF military and other STRATEGIE$ DURING the COLD WAR. :idea:

      According to RAND, the MAIN OBSTACLE to this AMBITION…IS the GROWING INDEPENDENCE of GERMANY. :idea:
      Among other things, it points out that BREXIT :idea: has GIVEN GERMANY GREATER INDEPENDENCE and made it
      MORE DIFFICULT FOR the UNITED STATES TO INFLUENCE the decisions of EUROPEAN GOVERNMENTS.

      A key OBJECTIVE that permeates this CYNICAL STRATEGY IS, in particular, TO DESTROY COOPERATION…BETWEEN…
      GERMANY and RUSSIA :twisted: …as well as…..FRANCE……which is SEEN AS……the GREATEST ECONOMIC and

      THEREFORE…..PREVENTING GLOBAL…FOOD PRICES from FALLING,….. a senior Foreign Ministry official in MOSCOW said. :idea:

      ALEXANDER KINSHCHAK, head of the Ministry’s Middle East and North Africa Department, told RIA news agency in an interview published on Friday that RUSSIA HAD BEEN FORCED to ADJUST EXPORT MECHANISMS as a RESULT of SANCTIONS in recent months.

      “US and EU $ANCTION$……which INCLUDE…

      1. DISCONNECTING Russian BANKS from SWIFT….
      2. and BLOCKING MONEY TRANSFERS in DOLLARS and EUROS…..

      2. AGREE on NEW CHANNELS and FORMS of FINANCIAL SETTLEMENTS…using other currencies, including the ruble,”

        “But TO fully NORMALIZE the SITUATION…
        1. ALL TRANSPORT and INSURANCE RESTRICTIONS on our EXPORTS must be LIFTED…and….
        2. UNHINDERED PAYMENT must be ENSURED.

        ……that……RUSSIA HAS PROVOKED a GLOBAL FAMINE,” :idea: :idea: he stated.

        Kinshchak noted that EXPORTS of RUSSIAN GRAIN…..TO….the MIDDLE EAST…..have largely REMAIN UNAFFECTED by

        $ANCTION$…..and have recently returned to growth, “thanks to timely measures taken jointly with our partners in the region”.
