Putin Knows Chess

If you grow up in Russia, you will know chess.  Putin certainly does.

After threatening to do so for a couple months now, Russia has pulled the trigger on expanding the list of commodities for which it demands payment in rubles to now include grain exports, effective Friday per a government legal website.

So now grain, sunflower oil and extracted meal are the next to follow the March decision to charge clients from "unfriendly" countries - including major customers in Europe - in rubles for natural gas instead of the normative dollars and euros.

On top of this move, recently Agriculture Dmitry Patrushev announced that Russia's agricultural products will go to "friendly countries" only, and according to "who needs it most" - a hugely significant statement sure to continue sowing uncertainty and chaos for the global food supply....

.....mixed with a soupcon of Marxism, eh? 

Not likely that the NeoCon Globablists know too much about Grand Master plays.  It's not in their "Liberal-New-World-Reset" book.

  1. I'm not sure. I'm sure that Putin is playing chess, but the West clearly wants the pain to increase, otherwise, why would they do the hair-brained things they do.
    Nobody is this stupid accidentally. Every once in a while, you'd get something right. They don't.
    Increase pain on the people. Make them need you for every morsel that goes into their mouths, just like baby birds. Control food, control people.
