Does this mean chicken prices might start to fall ? http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/08/06/us-ukraine-crisis-idUSKBN0G61K220140806 Moscow is by far the biggest buyer of European fruit and vegetables and the second biggest importer of U.S. poultry. View Quote |

Yeah, I saw this. Banning food imports (for non safety reasons) is just stupid. It hurts their own people more than us.
Edit: maybe that is the game plan, make your own people pissed off and hungry, blame the US through some effective propaganda campaign, war, profit |

Ivan can't help but act like a tard.
Banning the import of our food isn't going to hurt us much but it will sure hurt the Russian people, idiots. |

I work for an agricultural company that exports a ton of equipment to the Ukraine and to Russia.
So far I am happy they haven't put sanctions on American equipment yet. Seems like an odd choice for what to put sanctions on. I would think food would be pretty low on the list of ways to make another country hurt, seems like it could effect your own people more. But what do I know, I'm just a 14er. |

In the end, I suspect the UN will ask Russia to enter Ukraine as a peacekeeping force.

Now Obama's Africa meeting makes sense! He was right all along! Is Russia also the largest purchaser of US watermelon?!? |

What does their domestic media have to say about this? Is the evening news there also talking about it, or are they talking about the recent embargo the West has implemented on the sale of foodstuffs to Russia that poor average Russians rely on?

Because their grocery stores were stocked so well before this?
0bama and Putin are in an all out race to figure out which one is the biggest fucking idiot in the world. |

im surprised the russians have not just shut down exports of natural gas and oil. they could always just say.. " down for maintenance", for a looong extended repair..... they fuck the EU, and use them to put pressure on us to lift restrictions.

Don't forget, we and I include Europe in the we, are not the only areas of the world that grows fruits vegetables, and chicken.
Where do we get a lot of our fruits and vegetables from? South America. Well they will too. |
