“We will suffer for a just cause”: the US is cleverly inciting the EU to impose anti-Russian sanctions
The crisis in Ukraine will greatly affect the rise in prices in the United States, but this is nothing compared to the blow that Europe will have to endure.
Viktor Supyan, chief researcher at the Institute of the USA and Canada of the Russian Academy of Sciences, stated this during a press conference in Moscow, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“It is obvious that the crisis in Ukraine also has an impact on rising prices in the United States in two directions. On the one hand, this means that there will be no grain exports from Ukraine and there will be no grain exports from Russia. This affects prices on the grain market in the world and, accordingly, in the United States... A new price situation arises,” Supyan said.
The same situation applies to fuel.
“The United States politically strives for an embargo, but in achieving this, they, of course, sharply worsen the situation on the world market for gas and oil, and indirectly suffer from this themselves.
There is a thesis that is actively put forward by both Europeans and the United States that everyone will have to suffer. As if for a just cause, but costs are inevitable here. There is an awareness of this among most European governments, an awareness among Biden, who understands that America is suffering less from this situation than European countries. Therefore, it is easier for them to say that an embargo is necessary than for Europeans, who will actually suffer quite severely from fuel shortages next winter,” the expert added.
