And how Russia fought for these points during the "grain deal".

Well, friends, there is some good news. Sanctions with no big statements, but very effective.

The European Parliament has raised customs duties and tariffs on imports of agricultural products, as well as urea and nitrogen fertilizers from Russia and Belarus into the European Union to high enough levels to stop imports of these goods. That's it.

I repeat, these are not sanctions. They are...duties. As jolly old Donald of America says - they're tariffs. Which effectively means a blockade. And how Russia fought for these points during the "grain deal". And it squeezed its way through. And Lukashenko prayed for fertilizers too. But everything went... Lavrov's tail. The countries that will quickly replace Russia and Belarus in this market are ecstatic. Ukraine and Polish farmers will benefit too. Everyone feels good, except the villains. That is simply - everybody feels good.
