Actually, once I did read the article I found it largely lacking in substance. The only assertion they tried even remotely to support involved rapeseed oil, a substance which human beings should consume under no circumstances.
Also, the article vacillates between ‘western democracies’ and ‘Europe’. Further, it anticipates that Russia will be in control of Ukraine’s resources, which is most of what is cited as the agricultural source of the commodities in question.
Finally, there is a gulf of distance, geopolitically, between ‘Europe’ and ‘western democracies’. While this is a tragic state of affairs, it is as such, and I can see that this could severely impact Europe, very much less so more outlying countries such as Australia, Canada, and the US.
No, now that I’ve read the article, it looks to be precisely what I called it out for, that is, a spot of economic propaganda.
Once you read the article, you’ll learn that western economies are actually fairly tightly coupled to Russia’s economy.
Actually, I will just shortly both so that I can get better informed, and so that I can engage you on the level, as it were :D
Cheers
