Russia Threatens To Limit Vital Exports Of Agriculture Products To “Friendly” Countries Only
Medvedev said that many counties depend on supplies of food from Russia, a major global wheat exporter, writing: “It turns out that our food is our quiet weapon. Quiet but ominous,” according to Breitbart.
“The priority in food supplies is our domestic market. And price control,” he continued.
“We will supply food and crops only to our friends (fortunately, we have a lot of them, and they are not at all in Europe and not in North America). We will sell both for rubles and for their national currency in agreed proportions.”
He then explained that Russia would not supply products and agricultural products to those countries it deems as “enemies.”
“And we won’t buy anything from them (although we haven’t bought anything since 2014, but the list of products prohibited for import can be further expanded),” he continued.
THE BEAR JUST STARTING TO RETALIATE…….??
Looks like Russia believes they are self sufficient and that they have more than enough trade agreements with the 80% of the world that has no problem trading with them.
Say what you want about them . They have managed their economy brilliantly and looks like they can easily manage without the Natos
I say bravo to any Country that is self sufficient .
Talk about a fuster cluck for Europe. No energy. No food.
Maybe this is what USA planned all along, to make EU a vassal State of the USA.
Could be …Europe was / is dependent on Russia and possibly China…Can’t have that
