Yup, Russia has declared a ban on us food imports and EU fruit and vegetables

Given that Russia imports a lot of its food....I dont think he has thought his cunning plan all the way through.

Dangit. US not us. I hate not being able to edit titles.

I think you can edit the title by getting into Go Advanced after first clicking edit. I believe you get 90 minutes to change it. So, perhaps next time. At least you noticed it right away, I sometimes check my posts the next day and cringe.

Anywho, sounds like Putin doesn't mind starving his people.

Russia imports 40% of its food? I don't think Putin really thought this thru.

Russia has been importing the majority of its consumable commodities from China, for the last 10 years.
Same as we import consumable commodities from them.
Believe it or not... We import corn from China, as the ethanol production has reduced the volume of feed corn produced.

Isn't the leadership not giving a rat's ass whether the people have anything to eat a proud Russian tradition?

Putin thought it through, he just doesn't care about the suffering of his own people.

Should get interesting in the winter with the Euro's freezing and the Russians hungry.

Its always the little people that suffer with these contrived differences between governments.

And all sanctions should be lifted.
