Ukraine war: Russia attacks grain stores at River Danube ports
Ukraine war: Russia attacks grain stores at River Danube ports
The attacks targeted grain for export along the Danube just across from the Nato member state.
Can NATO just say enough is enough? Attacking food storage will have as large of an effect as the use of a nuclear weapon. The loss in food supply, in theory, would be directly responsible for tens of thousands of starvation related deaths.
If all the previous war crimes weren't enough, one more isn't going to change anybody's mind. :(
Can NATO just say enough is enough?
and upset Putin? they're too afraid to.
NATO can say whatever they want, but they won't do anything.
1 nuke is launched, there's a VERY good chance every single nuke on Earth is launched. Literally everyone dies in that scenario. I agree, attacking the grainaries is evil, but it's several orders of magnitude less severe than a nuclear bomb. For instance, the 2 nukes dropped on Japan killed almost a quarter million people. Modern nuclear bombs are tens of times more powerful than Fat Man and Little Boy.
NATO is basically trying to get Ukraine killed at this point.
Russian atrocities never end. Don't ever forget Bucha.
So, food is about to get more expensive for everyone since this will effect markets on a global scale.
What will be interesting to watch is how it affects food prices in countries that didn't import grain from Ukraine in the first place (like the US). I'm guessing there will still be a significant effect.
With the insane rate of increases in food prices lately, not just caused by this war, but also through cascading climate events, it was already very likely that there will be famine in at least some parts of the world. This only further exacerbates what is already a fragile situation globally. We may very well see significant global unrest and possible regime changes across the globe.
