Putin restores grain blackmail? What is it saying

Sergei Fursa Columnist, Putin's investment banker stated that he should discuss with Erdogan the issue of restricting agro -products from Ukraine Balakliy, Kherson, increased financial assistance for Ukraine, increasing arms supply, oil sanctions, restrictions on visas for Russians. A whole set of factors that worsens the mood in the Kremlin bunker, and with which Putin can do nothing. And here in powerless anger he found how to spoil the mood of Ukraine and allies.

Having satisfied his ego roller of Gazprom that Europe will freeze in the winter (and by causing a homer regatt in Europe itself and the city of Krasnoyarsk, who illustrated the European winter hell with its usual annual hell), Putin again went to grain. The grain agreement, which he had to sign under pressure, works successfully. Ukraine increases exports.

This has led to a decrease in prices in the world market (in particular, the speculative component) and leads to a stable currency tributary to Ukraine in large volumes. Putin's video will try to roll back the grain agreement. Putin stated that he should discuss with Erdogan the issue of restricting agro -products from Ukraine, as grain goes not only to the poorest countries in Africa, but also to the EU. First, one should finally explain Putin how the world markets work.

And if the grains are less on them, then the prices increase and from it always lose the poorest. Because the rich will just buy it elsewhere. But the poor will not. And secondly, oddly enough, Putin still lied. He stated that only 2 of 80 food vessels from Ukraine went to the poorest countries, everything else to Europe. But it's not. Ukraine really supplies 37% of its exports through ports to the EU. It is mostly Spain and Portugal. Traditional markets for Ukrainian cereals.

After all, in those lands, there are not enough cereals to ensure their livestock. It was so before the war. There is now. But as we understand, 37% are not the same as 78 vessels out of 80. Or Putin should be explained not only as world markets, but also mathematics for first class. But Putin's logic does not work precisely because Spain will always find grain on the market. Buy more expensive, but buy. If something, subsidies from a rich EU will help.

Like to pay for the road, which is so scared by Russians of ordinary Europeans. But African countries will feel prices and competition from Spain and suffer. And the most interesting. Putin is beating. And he wants to make a hood. Somehow the EU and Ukraine. Because it is forced to retreat in all directions. And in Kherson region. And in their oil and gas income. But even before he was not a humanist. And he did not go to the deal because he wanted to help African children.

And because China and Ko did work with him. What has changed today? Putin has diminished the ability to influence. He is weakened financially and from a military point of view. Therefore, he wants to use grain blackmail. But have the factors that forced Putin to sign a disadvantageous grain agreement have changed? Unlikely. So, they will prevent him from overlay. Can we predict the situation? Hard. The desperately driven into the corner of the rat is capable of everything.
