Exports at the crossroads: Debate to continue over unlocking Ukraine grain routes
Tass ^ | 6/22/22 | Tass

Posted on 06/22/2022 6:55:49 AM PDT by hardspunned

TASS, June 22. For more than two months now, Ukraine, the UN, the EU and intermediaries have been debating the problem of exporting grain blocked in the country due to the ongoing conflict.

Various parties have put forward seven ways to export grain from Ukraine: via the ports of Berdyansk and Mariupol, through Odessa, by rail through Romania, Hungary and Poland, and to Lithuania across Belarus or Poland. However, no final decision has been made so far on how to export anywhere from 20 to 25 million tonnes of grain, according to different estimates.

The next attempt at possibly unlocking Ukraine grain export may come as early as next week in Istanbul. According to Turkish mass media, a meeting is planned with participating representatives of the UN, Ukraine, Russia and Turkey, which took on the role of an intermediary.

I don’t think the Russians are the ones blocking the shipments. Zelensky is either holding the grain for political leverage or the DC globalists see this as another tool to rearrange the world order through catastrophe.

Use those harpoon anti ship missiles to clear the Black Sea of the Russian Navy and start exporting.

Zelensky’s using strong-arm tactics and he refuses to clear the mines he put there at the ports. He’s so determined to start a war with Nato vs. Russia. I put nothing past this creep and his administration from using or creating whatever they want to to continue this war and force Nato’s direct involvement.

I think you might attribute more autonomy to Zelensky than he actually has. Whatever position he takes, with your analysis being very likely, his bosses in DC are calling the shots. And we both know who the black hand manipulating both Biden and the oligarchs in Ukraine belongs to.

“I put nothing past this creep and his administration from using or creating whatever they want to to continue this war and force Nato’s direct involvement.”

Zelensky is just the puppet, it’s the US who wants NATO involvement and Zelensky just does as he’s told. Trust me they are going to keep poking the bear, screwing with Kaliningrad, hitting targets in Russia, whatever it takes to provoke a Russian attack on NATO territory. The only thing that will stop it is if some of the bigger EU countries balk. The entire Western financial system is at risk, and bringing Russia and China under control even if it means WW3 is the plan the US is going with.

And they just hit that refinery inside Russia with a drone. They plan for this war to go on for years wearing Russia down both militarily and economically, and are counting on Russia not resorting to nukes. This has been in the works for some time, the West is burdened with unpayable debt, and they are afraid both Russia and China want to opt out of our system, leaving us high and dry. I think this article gets it right.

No, your big guy, Soros, Obama, the whole crew who impeached Trump for turning over their rock, pushing NATO into Ukraine, started the war. Your battle cry is “and SOB, the prosecutor got fired”. That’s what you dip$hits just borrowed and blew $60B fighting for. You got balls denigrating Tass when you spend all day pimping your sources, CNN, NYT, Compost, FOX your big guy’s press releases, etc., etc. EVERY ONE proven for decades to be total propaganda. You damn Biden/Media shills have zero self respect.

Russia and Turkey offered to remove Ukrainian mines blocking Odessa and open safe escorted commercial shipping through the Black Sea

Ukraine refused

I notice the US is not a party to any of these discussions. Says how much respect we get with Biden.

Quite carrying their water then. You warmongering neocons can’t help yourselves during another of your Bushite wet dreams. That’s why it was so easy for Soros/Obama/Biden/Neocon DC to take your disinfo addled ass along for the ride. Again, quite stooging for them.

“he refuses to clear the mines he put there at the ports”

It would be foolish to remove the mines until Russia removes her warships.

Sure, so Putin is such a moron, he was hypnotically controlled by the West and we forced him to order his army to invade another country. That’s what you would have us believe...

“Ukraine refused”

Of course they refused. The condition which caused Ukraine to place the mines still exists. As long as it exists, Ukraine has no interest in removing the mines.

LOL, you really need to practice your English spelling and grammar more if you want to successfully pretend to be an American, tovarisch. Your post has some dead giveaways.
