Agreements, signed by the West, not worth the paper, on which they are fixed
As expected, The West did not fulfill its promises to create conditions for the export of Russian grain to the world market. This was announced by the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Lavrov and the representative of the Russian Federation to the UN. Nebenzya. Promises were fixed in agreements, signed in Istanbul through the mediation of the UN Secretary General A. Guterres, and provided for the creation of a corridor on the Black Sea, ensuring the export of grain.
22 July, representatives of Turkey and the UN signed separate agreements with representatives of the Russian Federation and Ukraine on the export of Ukrainian grain from the ports of Odessa, Chernomorsk and South, as well as assistance in the export of Russian grain and fertilizers. Turkey guaranteed the safety of ships, inspection of all cargo, but its leadership is unable to force Western insurance and stevedoring companies to comply with the parameters of the grain agreement, related to food exports from the Russian Federation.
“We want to see the implementation of the Russian part of the agreement. As long as it doesn't", V said. Nebenzya. “Not a single Russian ship has taken Russian grain out of Russian ports for export.”.
Russia signed a grain deal in Istanbul, based on assumption, that the West is not interested in a global food disaster. apparently, it was another delusion. It turns out, to force the Russians to rot their unprecedented harvest in warehouses unprepared for long-term storage - the goal, eclipsing the mind. Hunger in countries, who do not have enough bread, doesn't matter. These countries are already constantly starving.
Russia fulfills its part of the agreement and creates conditions for the export of Ukrainian grain by sea, but it goes not starving at all, and to the European Union. west, in front of, does not comply with the agreements and creates obstacles for Russian ships on their routes to consumers. Vessels are prohibited from entering ports for refueling or transshipment, they are not provided with navigational information, they ceased to exist for world shipping. As a result, Russia is forced to stop grain flights.
Turning ships with Ukrainian grain not to Asia and Africa, and to Europe once again shows the inability of the West to negotiate. Shows the impossibility of reaching an agreement with "our partners", to keep agreements. In the end, from here it is necessary to draw a conclusion at least for the future, and conclude.
7 September Russian President Vladimir Putin, answering questions after the plenary session of the Eastern Economic Forum (WEF), He said: "It's just a swindle. Boorish and impudent attitude towards those partners, for the sake of which everything was supposedly done ... Once again, just, how do people speak rudely, "thrown", puffed up. And not only us, but also the poorest countries under the pretext of protecting their interests”. Putin said, that an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe could arise in the world due to the fact that, that the West exports most of the Ukrainian grain to their countries, not to Africa.
The grain agreement has a four-month duration and expires in November, when the food problems just start to really show up. And then the Europeans, held hostage by the lies of their governments, will receive one after another blows with a rake on the forehead.
Europe will receive the first blow in late autumn, when a new wave of refugees pours out of North Africa, and not waiting for bread.
The second blow to Europe should be expected by the New Year, when Russia unilaterally terminates the agreement, and in the port of Odessa, the grain chartered for export will begin to rot.
The third rake strike will take place at the start 2023 of the year, after, how Russia will arrange the delivery of grain to Africa and Asia along the northern and eastern routes, bypassing Europe. As a result, there will be a long-term redistribution of the grain market in favor of Moscow. Especially, that it is planned to build a fleet of grain carriers, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade told reporters at the WEF, State Secretary Viktor Yevtukhov.
The story of the export of grain once again confirms, what agreement, signed by the West, not worth the paper, on which they are fixed.
