Russians no longer hide the fact that they are exporting Ukrainian grain
< p> That the train with grain went to the Crimea from Zaporozhye, wrote in the Russian mass-media. However, they indicated that he was the first, and this is hardly true.
This was stated by the Gauleiter of the Zaporozhye region Evgeny Balitsky. He “with pride and joy” said that 11 wagons with Ukrainian grain from the Melitopol elevator left in the direction of the Crimea.
Balitsky did not stop there. He announced an increase in the “supply” of grain hundreds of times.
It will not be 11 wagons, but hundreds of thousands of wagons. Of course, our farmers will receive money that will be relevant so that they can sow the next crop. the collaborator cynically stated.
Russia is stealing Ukrainian grain: what is known
- The Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food has calculated that since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Russia has stolen and taken away from the temporarily occupied territories already 500 thousand tons of Ukrainian wheat.
- Of course, this is not the limit of the enemy's appetites. From July 2022, Russia plans to increase grain exports from 37 to 50 million tons. They are probably going to carry out this plan at the expense of grain stolen in Ukraine.
- In addition to the fact that the Russians illegally appropriate our wheat, they also block Ukrainian ports. This means that Ukraine cannot supply grain to other countries.
- This, in turn, is fraught with a global food crisis, because Ukrainian exports account for 50% of the World Food Program. Russia blocks about 20 million tons of grain in Ukrainian ports.
Zaporozhye and Kherson, the harvest is exported to the Crimea. From there, they try to ship it to other countries and sell it.
