Putin Says US Decision To Print Money Is Behind Soaring Food Prices
Burning Platform ^ | 6/3/22 | TYLER DURDEN

Posted on 06/03/2022 12:35:32 PM PDT by JonPreston

Earlier, we reported on the deranged, confused, false ramblings of a senile old man who is so out of his depth in running the world’s biggest economy, the catastrophic results will soon be obvious to even his most die-hard fans. Now, it’s time for his nemesis on the world scene, Russia’s Vladimir Putin to respond.

Speaking in a TV interview on Friday evening, following a meeting with African leaders in Sochi, Putin accused Western leaders of trying “to shift the responsibility for what is happening in the world food market” and said that “restrictions imposed by the US and its allies against Russia and Belarus will only exacerbate the looming global food crisis by affecting fertilizer trade and sending the food prices further up.”

Instead of looking toward Russian, Putin said that the root causes of the crisis lie with the US decision to print record amounts of money which led to an increase in global food prices, as well as Europe’s over-reliance on renewables and short-term gas contracts

Biden’s declared War on Petroleum is the root case.

Very important.

Putin is having a good day for a man with cancer, arthritis, MS, ALS, hemorrhoids, GAPO (Guerrilla Arm Pit Odor) and bad breath.

You beat me to that. Chuckle.
According to the paid Ukraine trolls here, Putin was on his death bed. And that was over 4 weeks ago.
In real life, Putin is much stronger and healthier and far more active than Dementia Joe

Putin, although a mad dog killer, is correct on this one.

How many innocent kids were in that car Demented Joe blew up when he exited Afghanistan?

I hate to agree with Pootie, but he’s right.

That’s not to say that his invasion did not exacerbate the problem.

If several people are stabbing Julius Caesar, that does not mean that Brutus had no role in killing Caesar.

Putin was wrong, it wasn’t a US decision, it was a Democrat decision.

Sometimes it seems that Chinese commies and Russian (ex?)-commies understand capitalism better than we do.
Except for the implementation part. They are better at criticizing.

In New York City the price is 114% more expensive than in Moscow. In London eggs are close to twice as much as Moscow.

He’s obviously more qualified to be Treasury Secretary than Janet Yellen.

Rush Limbaugh last spoke on his show February 2, 2021 and he died of lung cancer on February 17, 2021.

It made me think, in a similar position in a crisis, would Biden, Harris or ANYONE in power in DC say similar things?

Sadly, I don't think any of them could grasp it, much less say it.
There's nothing in it for them.
