Italy’s Salvini Warns Food Shortages Could Cause 20 Million African Migrants To Enter Europe
India produces a lot of wheat, but they have a billion people to feed. They don’t really export all that much. It’s not an insignificant amount, but if they don’t export, it won’t be the end of the world.
Huge population and they struggle with feeding everyone under even normal circumstances. I have no problem with this as a short term precaution.
How about if we stop ethanol subsidies??
That might be worthwhile.
This is the Biden admin. for you. This is also globalization where countries demand things from other countries whether they want to participate or not. Right now the US is not making friends but enemies. Thanks LGB!
America used to be able to keep its schizophrenia within the family. Now, the whole world has to see it.
“America’s vassal states across the Global South”
Vassal states? We do not have any vassal states across the global south.
But dross like this is a good reminder that India’s foreign policy interests are generally orthogonal to ours. India still views Russia as a potential counterweight to China.
Ever notice how the Brandon Administration doesn’t actually DO very much for Americans, including representing America on the world stage.
All they ever do is SAY stuff. Really stupid stuff.
Ahhh.....the “India First” rule.
Perhaps Bidung can persuade Haiti to ship us some red clay
Yesterday we read that Pakistan is near bankrupt. How long before they spoil for a confrontation with India?
I bet India is feeling secure with all thos Russian tanks that have been proven to be junk along with all those MiGs.
Stopping Ethanol subsidies would make corn affordable again for many countries south of our border, which might actually encourage some of them to stay home.
Can’t have that happening.
This is the way globalism will work. Countries who produce will be forced to give to those who don’t or can’t produce.
Equality
We’ll all be equally mediocre at best.
This shows the Zubu brothers for what they are: anti-U.S.A. zealots.
As long as the United States of America withholds exporting food to the rest of the world so our own people don’t go hungry.
We could make the ethanol and lower the price.
22,087,974 acres in the US are not in production due to FedGov policies.

What's with people who *don't* do that?
Well said. There is not a damned thing wrong with practicing enlightened self interest.
