Russian ships ARE being insured, so long as the price of the commodities is constrained. Russia shipped record amounts of (stolen) wheat last year, and expects to exceed it again this year. Weaponization of commodities shipments has actually improved the plight of food dependent nations. Russia is just trying to hurt the West by spiking grain prices.


“You have to behave within this restrictive framework that we have designed to hurt you for you to have access”

It’s the equivalent someone telling you have to work for 10 bucks an hour when the market equilibrium rate is 15. Is it a surprise the answer is a fuck you with making grain importa to Europe more expensive?

Ruinous for all. But the US have no choice.
When it comes to choosing between security and economy. Security always comes first.

The concerns that the US have is correct. But the strategy is probably .....you know what I mean.


not sure how Ukraine is affecting US security, pretty far away from the US.

cutting ties with, who you plan on making your enemy, so-that when you go to war you can do w/e you want, hurts both ways when they independently make what you wont trade. i dont think certain people got that memo.
I dont see how Russia and China being forced to do everything themselves is a win for us.

Reverting back to the same type of arguments the multi used lol to discount opinions. (There’s an astounding level of similarities between you two). You’re not “us”. Sad line of argument tbh.

Spare me the driveling commentary. I lost enough intelligence reading your previous posts and I'll skip over any I see in the future.

If you ever wondered what it’s like to interact with a person that walks into a restaurant and gets upset that some random table is speaking a language outside the national language spoken, we have it on display here folks.
