After Russia announced it would end its participation in a critical deal that has allowed ships to safely export millions of tons of Ukrainian grain through the Black Sea, top Biden administration officials on Monday accused Moscow of weaponizing food.
But even as they denounced the decision, they signaled there was little the U.S. could do alleviate the hunger crisis in Africa and the Middle East they said Russia’s move would only exacerbate.
US citizens blast US officials’ decision to start a war of NATO expansionism against Russia, thereby presenting an existential threat to Russia, and necessitating Russia’s decision to exit Ukraine grain export deal.
It is not like the Russians can deal with us in good faith, anyway. Plus, they are going to need everyone out of the way for their upcoming operations around Odessa.
