Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Saturday that Russia has blocked the embattled country from exporting 22 million tons of food products.

Speaking with media representatives following a meeting with Portuguese Prime Minister António Costa, Zelensky said that the worldwide energy crisis would be followed by a food crisis if other countries do not aid Ukraine in unblocking its ports and resuming exports.

Food prices are already skyrocketing around the world, causing some countries to ban the exports of key agricultural commodities.

Stunning the comments Zelensky makes in light of Ukraine’s failures and corruption still going on. He likes to make it sound like the worlds people owes him and his country a living....they don’t.

When the 40 billion comes in the front door of Ukraine, and exits out the back door into various bank accounts in the Caymans, Zel will peel off his fair share of the filthy lucre.

The mining of the port isn’t preventing ship passage through designated smoke-free passages.

What is stopping the flow of grain is the Russian blockade further out in the black sea.

The Russian ships are blockading grain exports out of the range of the Neptune missiles that sunk the black sea fleet’s flagship

Have the Russians said that's what happened, or did the Goats of Kiev get some Neptunes?  thinking face

The mining of the port isn’t preventing ship passage through designated smoke-free passages.

As for the "safe lanes", what about the drifting Ukrainian anchor mines that broke loose in stormy Black Sea conditions?

Yes, the Russians have demonstrated that they are staying out of the range of the Ukrainian missiles.

And that article you link is from March. Not up to date.

Since then your forces have retreated from Kyiv and Kharkiv and are being pushed back at Kherson

The real question everyone ought to be asking right about now is about the status of Ukraine as the #1 international money launderer in the world-—where is the money going, to whom? Who set this up? I think you’ll find the fingerprints of Cankles and probably Zero all over this.

Zelensky continues to make a Monty Python show out of his own peoples suffering....

While we're witnessing an era of absolute madness and craziness,

complete absurdity and splurge of hypocrisy!

What gives you the idea that Ukraine is the #1 international money launderer?

Where did you get that false number?

https://sanctionscanner.com/blog/major-money-laundering-countries-251

“The top 10 countries with the highest AML risk are Afghanistan (8.16), Haiti (8.15), Myanmar (7.86), Laos (7.82), Mozambique (7.82), Cayman Islands (7.64), Sierra Leone (7.51), Senegal (7.30), Kenya (7.18), Yemen (7.12).

I heard that - and no doubt other places as well. Leaders will keep this fakery with Zelensky going because they already know the informed publics not buying it.

Psalm 50:10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.Do you think that is the literal 1000 hills only?

One thousand as used in biblical books from psalms to the book of Revelation - an especially in the book of the apocalypse which is filled with numers as symbols - one thousand means "man" - or "completely all" -- 1000 = 10 x 10 x 10 -> so as per Judaic numerology, a complete and perfect number.

God owns all the cattle on all the hills in all the valleys which number far more than a thousand.

One thousand cubits is used symbolically four times as the depth of water flowing from below the threshold of the temple (Ezekiel 47:3-6).

In addition you see the symbolic usage of one thousand in Deuteronomy 7:9, Psalm 84:10, 90:4, 91:7, 105:8

This was clearly "very large" not a precise 1000 .

The Russians are not blockading any port or any ship. Zelensky is on record as agitating for World War III so save his hide, so mining the black sea is no big deal. Simple critical thinking demands an answer as to why you’re not treated to 24/7 VIDEO coverage of some wheat ship being interdicted, boarded or fired upon by a Russian warship. Every crewmember would be lining the deck pointing their cell phone at the spectacle and uploading it to YouTube. It doesn’t exist. Once again you’re being lied to, in order to pin the western created famine coming later in the year on Russia. Why? It’s all about the irrational, foaming at the mouth Russophobia from a handful of actors at the CIA and State Dept. A lot of people will suffer and die from this.

The Kiev ministry propaganda, in cooperation with these demoniacs, is writing these propaganda scripts for CNN and MSNBC to feed our Mass Formation Psychosis.
