Biden warns of 'real' food shortage following sanctions on Russia

This sounds like conspiracy theory crap. The notion that a president who is already facing terrible approval numbers due to inflation and gas prices would just want to exacerbate those problems to "change the world order", is about as ridiculous as it gets.
Sounds like you have little to add. You have Biden stuck on your mind. It ain't always about that idiot, you know?
 
Both Russia and Ukraine are large food producers and exporters. With both of them being removed from the market, food prices will spike. Both of them sell food to countries in Africa, Asia and the Middle East, their disappearance from the market could very well lead to serious food shortages in these countries.

Yet this is exactly what Biden raised. Here's a direct quote of what he publicly stated:

“You know, we are at an inflection point, I believe, in the world economy – not just the world economy, the world – occurs every three or four generations,” Biden declared Monday during a Business Roundtable event.​

“And now’s the time when things are shifting. There’s gonna be a New World Order out there. And we’ve gotta lead it. And we’ve gotta unite the rest of the free world in doing it,”​

What 'New World Order' is this?

Now is the time for a 'great reset'
03 Jun 2020 Klaus Schwab Founder and Executive Chairman, World Economic Forum​
  • Visit the Great Reset microsite here.
  • Hear Klaus Schwab on these podcast episodes: the Great Reset launch and his book.
  • We can emerge from this crisis a better world, if we act quickly and jointly, writes Schwab.
  • The changes we have already seen in response to COVID-19 prove that a reset of our economic and social foundations is possible.
  • This is our best chance to instigate stakeholder capitalism - and here's how it can be achieved.
COVID-19 lockdowns may be gradually easing, but anxiety about the world’s social and economic prospects is only intensifying. There is good reason to worry: a sharp economic downturn has already begun, and we could be facing the worst depression since the 1930s. But, while this outcome is likely, it is not unavoidable.​

To achieve a better outcome, the world must act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working conditions. Every country, from the United States to China, must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed. In short, we need a “Great Reset” of capitalism.​

This is little more than a push to implement Liberal / Progressive / Globalist tyrannical wet dream re-engineering of the entire world and all of human civilization from the top on down in their SJW ‘woke’ vision, inevitably resulting in making everything far worse than it is now, as all Liberal / Progressive / Globalist public policies do.

We can see this already by where the world was before the Biden administration and where the world is now.
If this proceeds, I only expect it to get worse, far worse.

Biden administration is already pushing for 'Backdoor Work Arounds’, similar to the OSHA vaccine mandate, to force New Green Deal Regulations:

The Securities and Exchange Commission is poised to unleash rules mandating that public companies tell their shareholders and the federal government how they affect the climate

Under the proposed rules, publicly traded companies will be required to explain in their regular disclosures to investors how certain climate-related risks can affect their finances. Potential risks include the rising frequency of severe weather, the potential costs of shifting away from fossil fuels and a company’s own efforts to limit its carbon footprint. Companies will be required to calculate these potential costs from data they already compile for regular disclosures to investors.​

Companies will also be required to disclose their “Scope 1” emissions — the amount of greenhouse gas emissions they directly produce through their own business operations, such as manufacturing or mining — along with their “Scope 2” emissions, which come from the energy they purchase to keep their business running.​

Companies would also be required to report their “Scope 3” greenhouse gas emissions, which include emissions from the goods and services purchased by the firm, if they have set public emissions reduction targets or if those emissions pose a direct financial risk to the business. Firms required to report Scope 3 emissions, however, will not face penalties if they come forward with mistakes or miscalculations in those figures.​

The cost of compliance will be enormous and have a bearing on the price of purchasing goods. The hours, resources, and energy required to complete these forms will be staggering and hinder companies from transitioning to being publicly-traded entities.​

But then again, there are other stock exchanges in the world. I am sure India might be open to companies conducting trades on its exchange without this flaming regulatory hoop.​

SEC has just polluted America’s business environment.​

A Chinese like ‘social credit system’ based on these mandatory SEC ‘Scope 1’, ‘Scope 2’ and ‘Scope 3’ emission disclosures?
The new totalitarianism, regulate business to death, and if the business fails, it’s their fault.

What’s the point of a Green New Deal when it destroys your economy and the standard of living for the majority of your people?
Turing back the millions which have been lifted out of abject poverty by capitalism, condemning them back to poverty?

You guys should probably stop watching commentators that Russia broadcasts as state propaganda.
 
The only way to have avoided this would be to just step back and let Russia take over countries. That's a worse outcome.

Joe Biden could have avoided this by not pushing for Ukraine to join NATO.

"According to Jeffrey Toobin in The New Yorker, President Trump realizes that attempting to seek to bring Ukraine into the Western orbit through NATO membership has been counterproductive. Indeed, that American policy, as developed by President George W. Bush and then sustained by President Barack Obama, has managed to help inflame U.S.-Russia and Ukraine-Russia ties without making life better for the people of Ukraine". - the new Yorker April 2017

Donald Trump was against expansion of NATO.

Joe Biden had been pushing it and accepting bribes from both sides since 2008. Trump was impeached for wanting Joe and Hunter Biden investigated.

Classic FSB talking points.

Do you have something to actually add to the discussion that hasn't been shot down probably 1000 times on this forum?

In other words, you have no coherent rebuttal.

The coherent rebuttal is that Russia has no right to dictate another country's foreign policy and certainly no right to attack another country that was no threat to them.

The deeper rebuttal is that Putin felt threatened by a former soviet state becoming democratic, giving his people "crazy ideas" that there is a better way than his sham democracy.

You are going to have to do far better than that, given the citations provided from WEF's cite and the reportage of the SEC's proposed new rules, neither of which is a Russian source. 'Doh!'

What you have posted is essentially sticking your head in the sand, or fingers in your ears 'La La La I can't hear you'.
 

I wonder how much of this is incompetence or done to satisfy an agenda.


Here are the top wheat group counties. If you have kept current, you'll be surprised.
Your posts are so stupid and pointless like most conservatives. What incompetence by Biden and what satisfy agenda?you copy and paste nonsense and make a stupid factless statements.

Ukraine is a huge producer of Wheat,and many goes to African and Middle East, places that can't make their own . Did Biden cause Russia to invade Ukraine? Anyway, American farmers hopefully are wise and plant more wheat this year

Russia didn't dictate Ukrainian NATO status.

The united states did. Along with the rest of NATO


"U.S. Secretary of State James Baker’s famous “not one inch eastward” assurance about NATO expansion in his meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev on February 9, 1990, was part of a cascade of assurances about Soviet security given by Western leaders to Gorbachev and other Soviet officials throughout the process of German unification in 1990 and on into 1991, according to declassified U.S., Soviet, German, British and French documents posted today by the National Security Archive at George Washington University"

They lied.

Incorrect, in order to join NATO, all other NATO countries have to agree

Please cite the treaty or other legally binding document that shows NATO cannot expand.

Otherwise ... informal agreements are ... informal and if the Russian government was banking on that (instead of something legally binding), then Russian officials are kinda stupid.

So the US forced Russia to invade Ukraine to cause a world wide crisis in which government control is further enhanced in the US?

Other people in the world, don't do business the same way as you might believe is right or normal.

In some cultures a man's word and promise to you mean far more than a scrap of paper with writing on it.

There are men who live in Afghanistan for example that the united states sought out because what these men said carried such weight that they were needed to reassure the Afghan people that what were saying was true. Paper deals won't cut it.

As far as Russian people were concerned, they had a deal. Our leadership agreed. And if they could not be trusted, they wouldn't be our leadership. They believed US.

Joe Biden knew this.

He's just still butthurt that Zelenskyy didn't bow down to traitor trump and his passive bribe when he tried to get him to help cheat in an American election that he knew he was too incompetent and ignorant to win without corruption. His butt is still throbbing from the fact that his Savior, traitor trump was kicked out of the White House by the majority of patriotic American voters.

President Zelenskyy is an intelligent, brave and patriotic leader, loyal to his country and his people.......exact opposite of the anti-American, Putin serving traitor we had to kick out because he violated his oath, was a threat to our national security and our citizens, and incited a failed insurrection in our country on January 6, 2021. **** traitor trump, and all the weak brainwashed cult who still suck him.

OMG LOL, you are really boiling down foreign policy to a pinky promise coming from a completely different presidential administration that had no force of law?

(while still getting the details of how NATO expansion works completely wrong in thinking that ANY US presidential administration dictates NATO)

Are you serious in thinking this is a valid argument?

If this is what passes for Russian insight, no wonder your military underperformed so badly in Ukraine.
 
OMG LOL, you are really boiling down foreign policy to a pinky swear?

(while still getting the details of how NATO expansion works)

Joe Biden knew NATO expansion would provoke a war.

All BS aside.


He knew how serious Russia took the agreement. Whether you like the way it was done or not.

Dude, if you are just going to keep asserting something I've already disproven, then you need to go back to FSB persuasion classes. You're not very good at this. You should learn how to adapt your arguments in the face of evidence that disproves your points.
