Zelensky warns of possible famine in many countries due to grain export disruption
22.03.2022 13:20

President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned of a possible famine in many countries due to the disruption of grain exports from Ukraine, as Russian troops do not allow Ukraine to sow and export it.
The Ukrainian president said this in his address to the Italian parliament via video link, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.
"The famine, which is approaching various countries, will be the worst thing. Ukraine has always been one of the largest exporters of foodstuffs. However, how can we sow under the blows of Russian artillery? How can we sow when the enemy deliberately mines the fields, destroying fuel bases? We don't know what our harvest will be and whether we will be able to export when our ports are blocked and seized,” Zelensky said.
On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops have been shelling and destroying key infrastructure facilities, conducting massive shelling of residential areas of Ukrainian cities and villages using artillery, multiple rocket launchers and ballistic missiles.

I didn’t think you wanted to bet.
 
Let's bet a million dollars you dumb bitch
I see you’re not interested in betting money. OK how about something else.

Loser posts that they have no idea what they are talking about, that they blindly follow misinformation online, and have not ability to reason critically and so their ideas should not be taken seriously. Then we’d respectfully ask HNIC to sticky that post for a month.

We can have HNIC judge who the winner is. If Russia wins, you post it. If Ukraine wins I post it.

Sounds like an easy bet for you to win. Remember Russia has no more missles and is getting all their tanks taken away.

What do you say?

Some of the credible people I follow on this have suggested this may have been a Russian accident as opposed to a precision strike from Ukraine.
Of course, Russian telegram is claiming this too. :lol:

A couple of points that made a lot of sense:

1. You never see videos from the Ukrainians without a few seconds of the rocket/missle/whatever dramatically traveling towards the target.

2. The announcement from the Navy said something like a "Russian ship was destroyed" when normally they go into more detail and take credit etc.

I think we will know for sure if more footage showing the actual moment of impact is released or if we just continue to see the aftermath videos.
 
"So you think Ukraine should just GIVE Putin the Donbas and Crimea and neutrality, to end a war Putin started??"

No I think Ukraine should sacrifice rivers of blood serving as US proxy cannon fodder for years to drain Moscow while you sit at home eating Pop Tarts and tweeting.
 
The only humanitarian position is to continue the US plan to flood the nation with just enough weapons to bleed Russia without actually winning for years and years to subvert Moscow in the grand chessboard maneuverings of a few sociopaths in Washington.
 
Biden arrives in Poland as he announces new plan to wean Europe off Russian energy


Updated 11:03 AM EDT March 25, 2022


President Joe Biden on Friday announced a new initiative meant to deprive Russian President Vladimir Putin of European energy profits that Biden says are used to fuel Russia's war in Ukraine.


Speaking in Brussels alongside European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Biden said Russia was using its supply of oil and gas to "coerce and manipulate its neighbors." He said the United States would help Europe reduce its dependence on Russian oil and gas, and would ensure the continent had enough supplies for the next two winters. The announcement came just before Biden departed Brussels for Poland.


"It's going to take some time to adjust gas supply chains and infrastructure that (were) built for the last decade so we're going to have to make sure the families in Europe can get through this winter and the next while we're building an infrastructure for a diversified, resilient and clean energy future," Biden said.


Biden and von der Leyen announced a joint task force meant to help wean Europe from its dependence on Russian oil and gas. The panel, chaired by representatives from the White House and the European Commission, will be aimed toward finding alternative supplies of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and reducing overall demand for natural gas moving forward.


Europe's dependence on Russian gas and oil has proved a major sticking point in western efforts to punish Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine. While the US banned Russian energy imports, Europe found it far more difficult to cut off its supplies.


"I know that eliminating Russian gas will have costs for Europe, but it's not only the right thing to do from a moral standpoint, it's going to put us on a much stronger strategic footing," he said.


The US will work toward supplying Europe with at least 15 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas in 2022, in partnership with other nations, the White House said. The group will also work toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions through reducing methane emissions and using clean energy to power operations.


Senior administration officials said the 15 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas come from multiple sources, including the United States and nations in Asia. But officials did not have an exact breakdown on where the gas was coming from. The announcement Friday was the culmination of a US effort over the past months to identify alternate sources of energy for Europe, particularly in Asia. Officials said those efforts would continue through this year to hit the target.


One official said weaning Europe from Russian energy amounted to "replacing an unreliable supplier of LNG with a much more reliable supplier in the US."


"This crisis also presents an opportunity. It's a catalyst," Biden said. "A catalyst that will drive the investments we need to double down on our clean energy goals and accelerate progress towards our net zeroes emissions future."
 
Vladimir Putin: J.K. Rowling and Russia Are Victims of Western “Cancel Culture”
The Russian leader made an unexpected reference to the 'Harry Potter' author, who, he said, was canceled because she "didn't satisfy the demands of gender rights."

:lol: :lol::lol:
 
I see this going round, might as well post to help clear up.
It's a misspeak. Biden didn't not mean to say U.S soldiers are going into Ukraine.

The U.S. soldiers are in Poland, is Biden planning on marching them across the border.
It did sound like it when I first heard it but, nah.

Don't give those bullshit aggregator sites more hits.

This is the link to the peace corps page this is from: https://www.peacecorps.gov/ukraine/preparing-to-volunteer/diversity-and-inclusion/

Possible Considerations for Volunteers of Color
Because of limited exposure, some Ukrainians will expect all Americans to be white and are unaware of diversity in the U.S. For Volunteers, the range of responses to their skin color may vary greatly. Some Volunteers may be mistaken for a host country national, be questioned about their U.S. citizenship, face behavior and language skill expectations. Peace Corps aspires to support each Volunteer in navigating these challenges in a way that works for them. Depending on the situation, Volunteers may choose to respond in a variety of ways. Sometimes they may remove themselves from the situation. Sometimes they may seek support from fellow Volunteers and/or Peace Corps staff. Sometimes they may practice a particular coping strategy or self-care strategy. Sometimes they may explore if they can turn the situation into teachable moments for themselves and the host country national. All Volunteers should be mindful of histories of race and ethnicity that are present in U.S. culture and within your country of service and should be mindful of being an ally to your fellow Volunteers.

Racial and ethnic minorities in Ukraine, primarily Poles, Hungarians, Crimean Tatars, and Greeks, make up about 5 percent of the total population. Most Ukrainians have not had personal interactions with people of other races. They often assume that African-American or Asian-American Volunteers are university students from Africa or Asia rather than Americans. Thus, these Volunteers may be stopped to show their identification papers more frequently than other Volunteers, particularly in larger cities where they are not known. On its website, the U.S. State Department now warns prospective travelers to Ukraine of hate crimes directed at ethnic minorities. In addition, a number of international human rights groups have expressed concern with the rise in hate crimes and xenophobic activity in big cities in Ukraine.

One Volunteer writes: A majority of the time, people view me with curiosity. Most people I work with love to ask me about my ancestry. They and are polite and respectful. Occasionally, I am mistaken for an Arab or African refugee and I hear some people shouting. Most Ukrainians are embarrassed by this behavior and I have never felt scared for my physical safety. Sharing information about my cultural background as an American of Indian descent has been a wonderful and positive experience for me in the nine months I have lived in Ukraine.

Possible Considerations for African American or Black Volunteers
Volunteer Voices: “'People of color' face many challenges living in Ukraine, as a Peace Corps Volunteer. However, African-Americans will confront far more complicated issues. For modern parts of Ukraine, African-Americans are part of the community and day-to-day life. However, there are many Ukrainians who have never seen a Black person before. Their understanding of African-American culture is fueled by the media and African stereotypes. You will generate lots of interest and curious stares.

So, these stares can make you uncomfortable and annoyed. Ukrainians' initial perception of you may be that you are from Africa; it may not. It does help if they understand that you are an American, and the training in PST will help you consider ways that you will engage with these assumptions."

"It is not uncommon for Ukrainians to refer to African-Americans as “[N-Word]”. Volunteers of color may be called 'a monkey' or may see children’s games with Blackface. Being aware of the history of dehumanization for people of African descent may help inform where this comes from; it does not justify it. It will be at your discretion to determine the intent. No matter the intent, staff recognizes the impact that hearing that word may invoke hurt and anger. If you view it as unlearned [something the person has never been exposed to], it may be an opportunity for you to educate that person. We are here to support your successful service, and these comments and images can be a huge distraction and obstacle to you. Know that Peace Corps staff is here to support and encourage you. Do not hesitate to remove yourself from such situations. You are not expected to be subjected to such treatment. You can also find support and understand from other African-American Peace Corps Volunteers serving in Ukraine."


Any volunteer or staff member who has experienced racism can contact any Peace Corps Ukraine staff member. This can include the Program Managers, Safety and Security Manager, Director of Management and Operations, Director of Programs and Training, or Country Director.
