I believe w lot of Russia’s third world client states buy Ukrainian wheat and weren’t too happy facing the future food riots from their starving citizens so Russia caved in.
Hopefully this agreement is good news. I doubt that it is likely to be the basis of peace, as I doubt that Putin will pack up his Army and go home. I also doubt the Ukes want to give up their gas and oil resources, and Europe probably agrees with them even if they don’t shout it from the rooftops. This will be welcome news for a number of third world countries, and some of the BRIC countries have enough very poor people that the pressure on basic food prices should be a welcome possibility.
A separate story about Chechens, some in Ukraine and possibly 2 other groups in Chechnia, wanting to fight Putin is an interesting development. Putin has been using Muslim and assorted non Russian ethnic groups to save from having to force ethnic Russians to be his cannon fodder. Who knows where these acts of his may lead?
