Stop lying and stop being stupid all Russia has to do is stop the blockade and stop stealing Ukrainian grain for its pal Assad.
Ukraine cannot be asked to clear a path to Odesa for the Russians Black Sea fleet whilst it is bombarding Ukrainian cities.
Thanks for the fuel your country exported to us. You chaps can afford to pay more at the pump. 😆

Well, Russia is the 7th largest grain supplier in the world. Ukraine is not in the top 10.
So, if someone European isn't transporting grain, it's Russia. There are other ways to move grain besides through the Black Sea.

China's hoarding half the world's grain reserves... Don't know what that's all about though. Probably nothing to do with trump's little hands, but one just never knows.
We will supply the grain. It just will not be at the price you would like.
Who is the largest grain supplier in the world my good chap?

China.
They do grow a lot of rice I suppose, but are you sure that is exports and not merely production? There is a difference.

Well we are not all selfish little humps are we. So we have to pay more for potato chips and petrol. I’m kinda sick of hearing people in the way complaining about a price hike whilst Ukrainians are being raped, murdered and bombarded by Herr Putin
All we have to do is give them the tools to kill enough Russian invaders and all this stops and Russia is back in its box. In a time of war government’s should introduce rationing

Oh, your inflation is going to get higher. You are not done paying more yet. Your suffering has just begun. You are going to pay more for bread and a lot of other food.

Thanks again for the fuel.

YOU are going to get this, YOU are going to get that, so you figure you yourself are not going to be affected, why is that little Putin lover? Is it because you get secret money from Putin so you don't have to worry about inflation?

Ukraine is demanding weapons. If they don't get them they will starve the world.

Zelensky’s delay in opening sea corridor threatens the globe with hunger.

Russia has offered to escort ships through the black sea to help.
Ukraine would rather blackmail the world and cause hunger.
It seems Metal Brain had the details wrong:

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine-news-russia-war-putin-food-crisis-odesa-mykolaiv-black-sea/

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Wednesday night that Russia's naval blockade of his country's southern ports could lead to starvation for millions of people around the world. CBS News correspondent Chris Livesay visited Odesa this week, where some 20 million tons of wheat and corn are sitting idle, ready to leave the port but blocked by Russian warships and mines.

It’s because he lives in St Petersburg and his life couldn’t get any more 💩 anyway.

I work a ten minute walk away from my house, have all the fuel you want Ivan. It won’t be long before you’ll have so much fuel you’ll need to give it away 😂

Ahhh...you are a city dweller.

Do you grow your own food? How do you think your food gets into your city? Trucks that require fuel. You are going to pay a lot more for food. Will your employer give you a raise when inflation eats away at your income? Enjoy your suffering.

Thanks again for the fuel. Why is your country exporting fuel to the USA when you have a refinery capacity shortage too? Your government pretended to suspect an anti competitive oil refinery industry too. How long has it been since your government started an investigation into it? Ours was started last fall. They still cannot decide. Maybe after a whole year they might talk about why it is taking so long.

I guess it is tough making up BS excuses as to why nobody wants to increase refining capacity in a competitive business.

Well, Ukraine used to be referred to as rhe bread basket of the Soviet Union…

So, on one level it could be true.
On another level, it would seem Russia produces far more grain than Ukraine…
On another level still, China’s hoarding half the world’s grain supply.

And people are starving.

This goes to show you that the world needs these politicians like it needs Delhi belly, rotting teeth and vegetarian flatulance.

Nope.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a liar. He lies all the time and this is just another one.

Ukraine put the mines in the black sea. Then a storm went through and blew the mines all over the place so nobody knows where they are. Russia is de-mining parts of the Black Sea and has a corridor it can escort ships through. All they ask for is that Ukraine de-mine their ports so they can ship again.

Ukraine is preventing the grain shipments. The USA controls Ukraine, so it is really the USA that is preventing exports through the Black Sea. This seems like an engineered food shortage.
