Russia laid out conditions on Monday for agreeing to any further extension of the Black Sea grain deal, and President Vladimir Putin said that Moscow could send free grain to African countries if those conditions were not met.
-snip-
Speaking at a Russia-Africa parliamentary conference in Moscow on Monday, Putin said grain exports under the Black Sea deal had unfairly prioritised "well-fed European markets" rather than African countries, and that the renewal of the deal on Russia's terms was in the continent's interests.

Richard Nixon said that one of the things he regrets most about Watergate is that he didn’t get to improve/develop relations with Africa. And that the Chinese, and perhaps the Soviets, would gain huge inroads there instead.
That’s might White of him.👍
White Russian!
And President Trump called Africa a sh**hole nation. He is right.
“the deal’s renewal in May would depend on certain conditions, including the restoration of access to the SWIFT financial messaging system for Russian state-owned agriculture-focused bank Rosselkhozbank, a resumption of farm machinery supplies, and the unblocking of foreign assets and accounts held by Russian agricultural companies.”
If that doesn’t happen, the grain deal is off, and Russia is going to push fertilizer and grain to Africa for free to undercut the Ukes.
Warfare... works both ways.
The nation of Africa? LOL... moron.
LOL! 5 weeks until Putin’s May 9th “Victory Parade” in Red Square...
Trump referred to Haiti and African nations as ‘shithole’ countries
President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as “shithole” nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can’t have more immigrants from Norway.
LOL!
It sure looks like you don't learn the first time, Marcus!
You said you agree. That makes it your stupidity. And then you think it’s a good tactic to cut off food to African areas that barely get by, in order to help the Ukes.
Oh my. Seeing the words Russia and grain together, while at the same time Russia has once again entered Ukraine, I cannot help but think of the Great Soviet Terror Famine. In the early 1930’s the Soviets starved at least 10 million people. The Soviets did not just take all of the already harvested food. They took all the seeds, and and then they took all the animals, dogs, anything edible. Many in the Ukraine did not want to collectivise their farms. Ukraine was, and probably still could be, the breadbasket of Europe.
Besides the millions of Ukrainians that were starved, hundreds of thousands were forcibly relocated.
It is a great idea to watch the movie Mr Jones. It is a great depiction of a true story. Not just the Soviet Terror Famine, it also shows a very real person in history. Gareth Jones managed to physically visit the Ukraine in 1933, and witnessed first hand the insanity of collectivism. It also shows how evil Duranty and the New York Times were.
Putin feeds Subsaharan Africa.
Which facilitates the population explosion there which will migrate to Western Europe and the U.S.
Putin wins.
Good movie. Make sure to give Ukrainian Communists credit for some of the famine.
“ And President Trump called Africa a sh**hole nation. He is right.”
Africa isn’t a nation, and Trump didn’t call it one.
He correctly noted that there are s-hole nations and we shouldn’t be taking their advice about how to run our country.
As a matter of fact I’ve used s-holes in Africa.
I cannot help but think of the Great Soviet Terror Famine.==
Yeah a tragic history. BUT the famine wasn’t only in Ukraine. It was wide spread weather problem across UkSSR and RSFSR together. And also same years there was a famine in USA too.
So again it was a weather problem. Also the human losses in whole USSR was about 1 mln.
Compare it with a humen losses of post Soviet Ukraine. Ukraine 1991-52 mlns and 2021- about 26 mlns. They lost more than whole USSR in WW2(20 mlns). And it all was before our eyes just recently.
Which facilitates the population explosion there which will migrate to Western Europe and the U.S.
The Western Europe and US they have learned to hate.
Putin wins.
Darn, I missed that one, thanks for pointing that out.
