After he recovered from novel Coronavirus, Blinken went to Europe without stopping to attend the foreign Ministers' meeting of the Gas Tank Group and jointly issued a so-called communique,
which in many places referred to the integration of Hong Kong, Taiwan and other countries involved in China
the U.S. -EU Trade and Technology Committee in Paris, France, shows that the U.S. and Europe want to decouple From China in areas such as rare earths for solar cells and chips
The US and Eu trade and Technology Committee is holding its second meeting in Paris on Sunday and Monday local time
According to a draft of the final statement released ahead of the meeting, the U.S. and Europe will reduce their dependence on China in areas such as solar cells and rare earths
The United States will be represented by Secretary of State Blinken Commerce Secretary Raymond Mondo and the Trade Representative, while European Union officials will be represented
European Commission Executive Vice President Vestager and Eastern Rovskis named as the EU commissioner responsible for internal market and services Breton
The United States, in particular, has Blinken personally leading the team, which means that in the United States we see all of his current economic and trade policies being driven by
The heads of security and diplomacy are taking the lead that is to say looking at it in the interests of security
Various economic and trade relations viewed in this light of great power competition Some new areas of development the US-Eu Trade and Technology Committee was established last year
The two sides held their first meeting in Pittsburgh last September and Business Insider Deutschland said at the time that the US and Europe were forging a new technological alliance to counter China
Some analysts point out that there is a strong Chinese factor in the background of the establishment of the committee.
The first meeting was mainly to build a framework to confirm consensus
The second meeting is likely to design some concrete actions and one of the main themes of the meeting is rare earth
This is the raw material needed to make magnets demand for magnets has skyrocketed in the transition to a green economy
To reduce dependence on China for rare earths, the European Union and the United States agreed to work with other Western partners to strengthen the development of alternative suppliers
In addition, the draft final statement will also warn against the high concentration of solar cell supplies in China, following reports from the United States
The European Union will also ban imports of goods made with so-called forced Labour, which could affect solar cells made in Xinjiang
Handelsblatt also pointed out that another theme of the meeting was revealed on the draft cooperation in the chip industry
There is no hope of establishing network monitoring mechanisms to detect semiconductor shortages early enough to spur the construction of new chip factories and relax state-aid rules
In order to reduce the risk of supply chain and reduce the strategic dependence on Chinese suppliers,
the analysis points out that the industry chain formed spontaneously by the market between China and Europe and America
It is contradictory for Europe and the United States to intervene in technology development cooperation on the grounds of so-called economic security and technological security
They want to change the layout of the industry chain not just in one meeting but also in solar energy and semiconductors
China has the advantage of production capacity so Europe and the US are only moving in the direction of reducing their dependence on China
But you also have to take into account the market situation and it's not always going to be a good outcome
if you go against the economic and market rules and we have a very clear advantage in solar energy and this wash storage
In terms of chip, it should be said that the United States and Europe will have some influence on the development of relevant industries in China if they take some actions together
But we also know that our advantage in solar and in this system is unassailable so we don't have to worry too much about it
I think the fundamental solution for China is to develop our accumulation and consolidate it further
The American delegation's intentions on this European trip were clear
Before joining the EU trade and Technology committee, Blinken and the G7 foreign ministers issued a so-called communique
Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian on Monday expressed firm opposition to the so-called communique
He urged the G20 to uphold the international system with the United Nations at its core and the international order based on international law
The basic norms governing international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter respect China's sovereignty and stop slandering and smearing China and interfering in Its internal affairs in any form
Do not bully other countries through the so-called communique of the GROUP foreign Ministers' Meeting with additive rules
The long-winded remarks ignore China's solemn position and objective facts and grossly interfere in China's internal affairs
There is no conflict in maliciously smearing China and borrowing again
Wait, there's been a lot of ridiculous pressure on China
It is not only Europe that has recently tried to weave a network to contain China through shuttle diplomacy
U.S. President Joe Biden will visit Japan and South Korea on Friday on his first trip to Asia since Last January
During his visit, Biden will hold bilateral meetings with South Korea's new President Yoon Hee-wol and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Yasuda
Biden will also hold a four-way security dialogue with the leaders of Australia, India and Japan during his visit to Japan, biden told foreign media ahead of the trip
Competition with China is at the heart of the visit, the South Korean president told a news conference on Sunday, according to Yonhap news agency
Drills month and Biden will hold their first meeting on Saturday on dealing with North Korea
Economic security and the contribution of both countries in international affairs The Indo-Pacific Economic Framework is an important tool proposed by the Biden administration to enhance economic standing in Southeast Asia
The aim is to contain China's prominent economic influence in the region and sources say the US could launch the framework as soon as May
It is also expected that Japan and South Korea will join baden in his consecutive visits to Japan and South Korea late this month
In fact, many in the U.S. believe that Korea has long fallen out of the U.S. orbit
So now the attempt is to bring it back to where they want it to be and in particular to have a high degree of alignment with Japan
So biden's mission in this case is not an easy one
Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun reported that the two governments plan to work on space and advanced semiconductor supply chains at the same time as Biden's visit to Japan
The report says Japan and the United States want to take the lead to counter the growing threat from China and Russia in outer space
Several Japanese and U.S. government officials confirmed the above information and are reportedly coordinating the inclusion of related cooperation in the joint statement to be issued after the japan-U.S. summit
The direction of recent U.S. shuttle diplomacy also includes the previously overlooked ASEAN summit in Washington last week
Despite a routine shift by U.S. officials to emphasize asean's importance and centrality, the group also announced plans to invest $150 million in ASEAN
The White House's $150 million investment in ASEAN is small compared with the $40 billion the United States is expected to spend on new aid to Ukraine
On these measures alone, the United States will not be able to compete with China, asean's largest trading partner. Malaysian Prime Minister Jacob Said bluntly
The United States should pursue a more active trade and investment agenda with ASEAN and actually cooperate extensively with the ASEAN region, including the United States
Us-asean Summit issued a joint Police statement and committed to the 10th US-ASEAN Summit to be held in November
Zhao lijian said he is glad to see the US and other countries play a constructive role in promoting regional peace and development
What China does not accept is any act that undermines regional peace and stability and undermines regional solidarity and cooperation
We hope that the COLD War mentality of the US side will respect other countries in the region
The development path independently chosen supports ASEAN centrality with concrete actions
With a healthy mindset and constructive approach to asia-pacific regional cooperation
Ukraine released a video on Sunday claiming that Russian troops used internationally banned weapons against the Yasu steel plant in Mariubur, but the claims have not been verified by Russia. Ukrainian military families trapped inside the plant have accused the government of not doing enough to rescue the soldiers and appealed for outside help to get them out
On the other hand, The Ukrainian side has also started the battlefield. Wu President Zelinski on Sunday appointed former army chief of staff Major-General Igor Tanchula as commander of the territorial Defense Forces, replacing The former position of The Reason to join the shijin
On Sunday, the Russian Defense Ministry released an update on the situation of the war, saying Russian troops destroyed a number of Ukrainian troops and military equipment assembly points during the day
Hit 18 command posts in the Hersun region and destroyed five command posts and two ammunition depots in the Donetsk region, including some deep into ukrainian-held military bases between Donetsk and Izim
It also recorded 13 drones intercepting three tornado rockets. On the other hand, the Ukrainian military released several photos of soldiers trapped in the underground rock mass of the Yasu steel plant
Photographs show them mending clothes, reading books and playing chess in the dim light. It is estimated that about 1,000 Ukrainian troops are trapped inside the steel plant, 600 of them wounded. They have been under siege by Russian troops for nearly two months
But a number of the families of the soldiers besieged recently in the house at a conference Practice the driver accused the government rescue appeal for not doing enough to give a helping hand ah hdoasthatarethearrange thesogoodaroundsasyouareisget
Well, the Ukrainian president said in his speech that Kiev was still negotiating with Moscow to remove the remaining workers from the plant, but the talks were very difficult
At the same time he still do not jump to the Russian side put malicious words I help write more that live why this matter that live can not speak live moogo chicken you learn a day to take a meal is stupid pig garbage is not Japan excessive I also lead us
I'm sure I took my fourth day in the he didn't do it I'm not somebody else you noticed the outside world Russian President Vladimir Putin said last week
Because of Kiev's lack of interest in serious and constructive dialogue, the talks have been effectively suspended
U.S. Secretary of State James Austin spoke by phone Sunday with Ukrainian Secretary of State Alexander Reznikov as one of the reasons why the U.S. and the West are continuing to send heavy troops to Ukraine
U.S. Secretary of State Blinken also announced on the same day in Berlin, Germany, that more arms and aid were on the way to Ukraine, as he met with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Alexander Kuleba
Russia's ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonov, says the situation in Ukraine is worrying as the United States supplies its skin with more powerful weapons
The United States is getting more and more deeply involved in a conflict that will have the most unpredictable outcomes for the two nuclear powers
Ukrainian military commanders also reshuffled frontline officers on Sunday as Ukraine upgraded its combat weapons with U.S. and Western support
Major-general Igtanchula, former army chief of staff, was appointed commander of the Territorial Defence Force to replace Viktor Galuskin, who previously held the post
The Ukrainian Territorial Defense Forces were formed in January of this year as planned, including 150 battalions and a total of 25 brigades. The reasons for this change are unclear
However, Kim was named commander of the Army s territorial Defense force, while Tanchula was named commander of the Military s territorial Defense Force
The new name means that the new force, though called territorial defence, may be aimed at the counter-offensive that began this month, appointing a actually more important one
This senior officer as commander-in-chief of the defense forces is better suited to this
NATO is coordinating the military assistance and training of the personnel
Coordinate the rear of this material forward and so on this this this some videos to strengthen coordination
It turned out that the time Kim was relatively more concerned about the role of war, and he attached more importance to the quality of gold. The newly appointed official had relatively stronger political and diplomatic quality
In contrast, the Russian army has been replaced in April due to the early failure of the campaign, and has been replaced with Dvornikov, a veteran of fighting in Syria
Breaking through the Donbas defenses and this month replacing special operations specialist Ivkurov, who made his name in the Kosovo war, with the increased security risks in Ukraine
The Chinese Embassy in Ukraine issued a notice on Sunday asking all Chinese citizens in Ukraine to file their information
If the original registered personnel leave China, they need to fill in the time of departure again to remind the Embassy
The few Chinese citizens who voluntarily stay in the no-stay zone have a clear understanding and bottom-line thinking of the personal risks they may encounter
If you need consular assistance, you can call the consular telephone number of the Embassy in Ukraine
Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian reiterated that on Monday after the GROUP of Seven warned China not to help Russia evade Western sanctions
China's position on the Russian issue is always based on the issue itself
China calls on all parties to decide their own positions and policies based on right and wrong
Do more to encourage and facilitate peace talks
Political settlement opens room for countries dealing with Ukraine
And relations with Russia are not allowed to harm China in any way
On Sunday, Finland's president and prime Minister announced their decision to formally apply for NATO membership. On the same night, Sweden's ruling party held an internal meeting and formally decided to support Sweden's membership
On the same day NATO foreign ministers' meeting in Berlin, Germany NATO secretary general of the Finnish welcome join NATO Said it would shorten the transition into about the two countries to the greatest extent But NATO member Turkey has put forward the objection Reasons include the two countries support the PKK terrorist activities such as violation to NATO
Relevant principles are not acceptable Turkey is really opposed or to chip Finland Sweden into the date smooth sailing
Finnish President Sauli Niinisto and Finnish Prime Minister Marin Niinisto announced Sunday that the Finnish President and the Government's Minister for Foreign affairs and Security Policy and the Committee approved Finland's application to join NATO
Inisto and Marine called it a historic day. Fenla's Foreign Minister Havilisto said earlier that a paper application for NATO membership would be formally presented at NATO headquarters in Brussels on Wednesday
Zhao Lijian, a spokesman for Finland's foreign Ministry, said on Monday that he hoped all sides would follow the principle of "indivisible security"
We should uphold the concept of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security through dialogue and negotiation on the basis of respecting each other's reasonable relations
To build a balanced, effective and sustainable regional security architecture in order to truly achieve lasting peace and stability in Europe
China and Russia have been very friendly. Finland's application to join NATO will certainly give
Sweden followed Finland's formal announcement of its bid for membership on Sunday, just hours after it was joined
Sweden's ruling Social Democratic Party held its third internal meeting at 5 PM local time on Sunday and officially decided to support Sweden's membership of NATO
The Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson told a news conference that joining NATO was the best guarantee for the security of the country and its people
Occasionally watch the solitarians Sannypullsofmilliter nonolinementhasurts
Time is also my element withkeeps
Andersson said that while non-alignment was good for Sweden, it was no longer a sustainable strategy
The Civic Party said in a press release that if the application is approved by NATO, the party will put forward the condition that NATO will not deploy nuclear weapons and permanent bases on Swedish territory
The two governments are expected to submit motions to their respective parliaments on Monday once the decision is approved, sources said
A formal joint entry application is expected to be submitted to NATO on Monday afternoon local time Swedish Prime Minister Anders Andersson and the moderate party chairman Jan Christsson held a joint press conference
The announcement follows a parliamentary debate on the same day that the Swedish government will apply to join NATO in what observers say is a strategic view
The accession of Finland and Sweden to the Treaty will greatly change the situation in the Baltic Sea and its surrounding areas, bringing its influence further to the Arctic region, which will become increasingly important economically and geostrategically in the future
"How will Sweden and Finland change NATO?" the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung website said Friday
Finland has 672 active artillery systems while Sweden has a modern navy including five Vesbiki corvettes and five submarines
All of this will provide valuable support to NATO naval forces and the air power of both countries is very important for NATO
Finland recently ordered 64 F-35s from Lockheed Martin and Sweden has 96 British division fighters and saab, a major defence conglomerate
Separately, the Financial Times website reported that the Baltic countries welcomed Sweden and Finland's expected accession to NATO
Saying it would greatly improve their own security and their ability to defend themselves against Russian attacks, Latvia's Foreign Minister Edgar Linkiewicz said
The Baltic Sea will therefore become NATO's sea and Finland and Sweden's decision to join NATO will change that neutral status and this is a historic world
This would have a further impact on the security landscape of post-cold War Europe
The consequence of this shock is that Russia will inevitably react accordingly and so will the corresponding response
Push NATO and Russia further into confrontation and Europe further divided
I think this is a negative development for the long-term peace and stability of the European continent
Other analyses suggest that the move reverses decades of Finnish policy towards NATO and overturns more than two centuries of Swedish attitudes towards military alliances
It will be the sixth expansion of NATO against Russia, which means further extension of NATO's strategic encirclement and deterrence of Russia
In particular, Russia's second largest city St. Petersburg is only 170 kilometers away from the NATO border and Russia's most important economic center is completely exposed to the threat of NATO
Finnish President Sauli Niinisto took it upon himself to call Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday to report the incident, though Putin's response seemed calm
Just that it would be a mistake for Finland to abandon its military neutrality because there is no threat to Finland's security
But Russia's deputy Foreign Minister Glushko warned the same day that Once Finland and Sweden join NATO Russia will not not respond
Finland's Foreign Minister Havilisto also expressed concern Saturday about the gray period between the application and formal NATO membership
The security situation was tense and he called on NATO to declare in the meantime that it would explicitly protect Finland's security in accordance with NATO's constitution before it was approved as a full member
The applicants will not receive NATO's Article 5 collective defence commitment to protect NATO, which is once again expanding on Russia's doorstep
It should be said that Russia is in a more passive position at the moment because of the ongoing Russian conflict
The vast majority of Russia's resources are devoted to the conflict in Ukraine but in the long term I think
It is true that Russia will do something to defend its interests after more than 80 days without conflict
The foreign ministers issued a joint statement in Germany on Saturday saying they would further tighten sanctions against Russia
And continue to provide military and economic support to Ukraine at a time when a growing number of ordinary People in Europe are concerned about the escalation of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine
The announcement came a day after Sweden told NATO it would not stage a mass demonstration in the capital Stockholm
The group says applying for NATO membership would be hasty, wrong and possibly fatal, according to the leader of Finland's left-wing coalition
Youssi Salamo also warned against making decisions based on emotion thank you
When I face with Lao tzu hair is right ah slowly look at that slow home ah pay wrong
Asked the I text of the face speed race to how said the column for example what life can not quit can not such character conflict
In this context Finland and Sweden have decided to join NATO and I think for the NATO side they will feel inspired by this message of NATO as a whole
The West as a whole also sees itself as being more united and older so it will stimulate them
Taking a tougher stance on the no-conflict issue for Russia in this context
Russia thinks there is no room for compromise either Ukraine or Russia to weaken both sides
A willingness to find a peaceful solution to this conflict although most NATO members have expressed support for Finland and Sweden to join the alliance
But the road to ratification may not be easy for both countries. Turkey has raised objections, Turkish Foreign Minister Mehmet Oru said
Turkey has informed NATO members of Finland and Sweden's support for terrorist groups such as the Kurdistan Workers' Party
Sweden in particular has supplied arms to the PKK and the export restrictions imposed by both countries on Turkey are unacceptable
He stressed that Turkey's open and clear position was not a threat to any country or an opportunity to seek influence
According to the rules, NATO can only admit new members if all 30 members agree
Finland's President and Prime Minister issued a joint statement yesterday announcing their decision to apply for NATO membership until the application is formally submitted to NATO on Wednesday
The Swedish prime Minister also announced on Monday that the Swedish government will apply to join NATO after a debate in parliament. What is your view on this
Good host. So that means Finland and Sweden, two Nordic countries, they're breaking out of years of military neutrality
Choosing to join NATO, the world's largest multilateral military alliance, is good for the country
The Swedish prime Minister said Sweden's non-alignment had kept the country safe for 200 years but on February 24th this year
After Russia launched military operations in Ukraine, Swedes judged that their security environment had already happened
Major changes national neutrality no longer works and Sweden has to make a new national choice
And I noticed that there was a lot of excitement in the Western media about what happened in Finland and Sweden and one of the most mentioned keywords was HistoricShift
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltberg said the choices of Finland and Sweden were historic
Finnish women's room watcher Heloran says Finland's entry into NATO marks a landmark event since the end of the Cold War
The biggest geopolitical event in Europe since the fall of the Berlin Wall even according to the former NATO commander
Retired American General James Hodges exaggerates that the Baltic sea will become a NATO sea once Finland and Sweden are admitted to NATO
The formal submission of a written request to start the political process is due this week but the two countries' military engagement is already complete
In particular, the Chinese post reminded that the two countries' militaries are deeply involved in NATO's ongoing large-scale military exercises
More than 15,000 troops from 14 countries are currently taking part in the so-called Hedgehog exercise in Eshaniya
So this is the largest multinational experience since the establishment of Estonia and that includes the division of Switzerland
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has publicly called for a counterproposal, but the approval process will not be known
Turkey's hardline stance actually lasted only a day with NATO foreign ministers, including Turkish Foreign Minister Mehmet Ciaglu
After a working dinner last Saturday with the Foreign ministers of Sweden and Sweden, the 52nd floor was lifted
And set out conditions for negotiations in which the two countries must respond to Turkey's security concerns and stop supporting what it considers terrorist groups
Give Turkey a clear security guarantee and cancel export experience to Turkey while Turkish presidential spokeswoman Karin Erdogan
The interview with Reuters the next day was a big step back
I'm not opposed to both countries joining NATO but I want to talk to both countries especially Sweden about counter-terrorism
Erdogan's opposition is more like a storm in a teacup a symbolic game of bargaining chips and room for compromise
The foreign minister asked Finland and Sweden to provide security guarantees but the two Nordic countries
They're asking for security guarantees when they submit transparency documents to NATO and yes, NATO is
Concerted action would be a collective consensus but Turkey is in NATO and he cannot exercise a veto even to say the least
Even if Turkey had vetoed it at all costs it would have been pointless in NATO
So this is the unspoken rule of the form of the largest military alliance that the United States has to make the big decisions
Why did Trump attend the summit in the first place
Why former German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Michel Macron
Turkey's conventional military is one of the 30 countries in NATO
It claims to be number two, but Turkey's say in NATO membership is low dust
So this is the unspoken rule of NATO and today the Russian Deputy Foreign Minister again warned that there would be serious consequences if Switzerland and Sweden joined NATO and how would Russia respond to that risk of nuclear war
Russia's opposition to NATO's eastward expansion, and even to its looming northward expansion agenda, is clearly ineffective
He has limited means of counteraction even though the Russian contingent has been fighting a special military operation for almost three months and he has not actually been able to change his strategic dilemma
Even to some extent also intensified NATO's total ban and strategic squeeze NATO secretary General Jens Stoltenberg even yesterday
Directly to the Russian president's claim that the fighters in Ukraine are on the way to defeat then given that the deputy chairman of the Russian Federal Security Council Dmitri Medvedev
President Putin has issued two warnings about the possibility of NATO admitting the two countries
Will lightning back the outside world's threat to Russia's survival so the key catch-up is now
Russia will not further escalate and deter each of the two Russians each possess enough to destroy the entire planet
For the two nuclear powers with huge nuclear arsenals nuclear weapons are for deterrence not on the battlefield
The catastrophic consequences of dropping a strategic nuclear weapon on Europe are unthinkable so in my view
NATO's further northward expansion would not necessarily trigger an unmanageable escalation of the risk of nuclear war, but a nuclear confrontation and a nuclear arms race would be far from complete
This is a huge disaster not only for Europe but also for the whole world. Ok, thank you for sharing your opinion with us online
Russia and Ukraine had already imposed restrictions on wheat exports against the backdrop of the Russian conflict, but on Friday India, the world's second largest wheat exporter, suddenly imposed an export ban
Restrictions on food exports by some countries will further push up international food prices as the world struggles with high energy prices
Adding to already high global inflation, India on Friday imposed a temporary ban on wheat exports
The DGTI said the decision was based on two main considerations: high inflation in India
Second, a sharp rise in international food prices caused by pollution conflicts threatens the food security of India and its neighboring countries
In fact, the pace of India's wheat exports has accelerated significantly since last year and the data shows that from March last year to March this year
India's wheat exports totaled 7.85 million tons, up 275 percent year-on-year and hitting a record high
The wheat export deal signed in May was about 1.5 million tonnes higher and India's wheat harvest has shrunk sharply compared to the same period last year as exporters paid far more than the Indian government in the context of a conflict-free Russia
India's wheat production was lower than expected
India had expected to produce 11 billion tons of wheat between July last year and June this year
But because of the hot weather this year actual production has been much lower than expected partly because of the increase in exports and partly because of the downward revision in production
The price of flour in India has risen to its highest level since 2016, triggering inflation
In addition, India's agricultural fertilizer imports and Russia is the world's main fertilizer supplier
The Indian government has suspended wheat exports amid a sharp rise in international fertiliser prices following the outbreak of the conflict
A way to protect yourself when world food prices fluctuate dramatically
What I'm feeling uh I'm not gonna go out uh ignore me I'm not supposed to I'm in this quota
Yeah, yeah, PS B and I are still going to be very aggressive
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The current conflict between Russia and Ukraine has seriously affected the wheat export of Ukraine, a traditional agricultural power in Europe. In previous years, the wheat export between Russia and Ukraine accounted for 1/3 of the world total
Wheat prices on the world market have soared by more than 40% since the conflict escalated in February and India is now the world's second largest wheat producer
A Reuters analysis said India's wheat export ban could push global food prices to new highs
Qu Dongyu, director-general of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, said Friday at a meeting of the Group of Seven agriculture ministers in Stuttgart, Germany
Supply constraints caused by the war in Ukraine have pushed agricultural prices to record highs, threatening already vulnerable countries in Asia and Africa
The FAO says Russia and Ukraine play an important role in global agricultural markets
Commodity prices are soaring because of the uncertainty surrounding the conflict in particular wheat, corn and oil crops and fertilizers
The FAO food price Index hit 160 points in March, the highest since the index was set up in 1990
April saw only a slight dip in the conference speech in the eastern zone, which called on governments to exercise restraint
Avoid export restrictions that could exacerbate food prices and undermine trust in global markets, the New York Times said
India's sudden ban on wheat exports in this context will highlight the shortage of supplies in the global wheat market
The potential threat of famine is increasing in some countries and regions, according to the International Food Policy Research Institute in Washington
By early April, the number of countries in the world subject to food export restrictions had increased to 16. The UN World Food Programme has communicated with India
Hope Indian wheat can help solve global supply shortage and appeal to concerned countries not to ban export
Avoid price rises and worsening supply shortages that are most affected
North Africa, East Africa, the Middle East they depend on Russia and Ukraine
The dependence on grain is very high, sometimes 60 percent, even 80 percent
Prices are going through the roof and then regional unrest that's definitely gonna happen
Where did the refugees go to of course to Europe because that's the closest he could get to Europe
So now the European countries are facing a very serious challenge
It is worth noting that India's temporary ban on wheat exports came quite suddenly just two days before it was introduced
The Indian side has also sent special delegations to relevant grain importing countries to discuss export issues of Indian small sales
Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India was willing to work to meet global demand for wheat supplies and even called on domestic wheat producers to seize business opportunities
The move comes after concerns over a temporary ban on wheat exports, which the Indian government said on Monday despite restrictions announced two days earlier
But it will keep open the window to export wheat at government level to countries with food shortages. Some analysts say the Indian government may also consider food as a geopolitical tool
He might be abundant and if he was abundant he could take this as a very good kind of
Inducements to increase his international influence on this related topic join special commentator Liu Heping
Dear Mr. Liu, we see that India has announced an immediate ban on wheat exports, citing the threat to its food security. This has not only triggered another spike in global food prices, but also raised fears of famine
My basic judgment is that human civilization has been highly developed in today's world
There should have been no massive food crisis or machine problem and then the modernization of technology and especially the mechanization of industrialization
And the development of biotechnology has enabled mankind to get rid of the original face on the loess
The high input low output tracking pattern in some places relates to a company in a developed country
Even one person can easily track tens of thousands of acres or even hundreds of thousands of acres
This not only makes human gradually get rid of the threat of hunger but also greatly get rid of the bondage of land to human beings
Second, economic globalization fundamentally solves the imbalance of land possession in various countries
And food imbalances even though some countries have a lot of land on this map
Others, however, have fared poorly in some particular weather conditions
Occasionally there will be some bad harvests or even no harvests in some places but the globalization of the economy has worked out for us very well
The problem of producing out of supply and demand is colloquially as long as you have money
You can easily buy enough food without farming and that's even though there are only 33 countries in the world
Can achieve food self-sufficiency but most countries will not appear food crisis
Third, the improvement of human moral level and the establishment of international organizations such as the United Nations
Countries that do not own land or have fishing rights to buy food can also do so through aid and transfers
And how will India's announcement of a ban on wheat exports affect global food supplies and how should society respond to a potential food crisis
It is true that after the outbreak of the housing conflict India was not the main actor in the international crisis but because India actively stole the show
He was thrust into the spotlight some time ago because Not only did India not follow the west in imposing sanctions on Russia
Instead, it has ramped up its purchases of Russian oil to the fury of the West
This time the world is looking to India to step up wheat exports at a time when global grain prices are rising
India announced that it was going to attack its wheat exports so we have this g7
Finally issued a rare public statement denouncing India's actions
The current ban on wheat exports rather than rice could also be seen as an important tool in India's politicisation of food exports
Trying to save cheap food and its way to the center of international power in other words
India wants to use wheat as a weapon to break its way into the UN permanent security council
I doubt it because such an act in India could be counterproductive
Instead, it will damage India's image as a responsible power
At a time when food prices are already a golden wage bird and the global food crisis is coming to a head
Indeed, this unusual move by India could contribute to a food crisis by increasing tensions among the population
There is a fear that if more countries especially now the world produces a lot the United States Canada Brazil Argentina and so on
There are also similar actions to be taken in the great West sweeping mankind
So I think under the background of the current vegetation freezing
In order to avoid the emergence of a global western and humanitarian disaster, the United Nations should also take the initiative to take responsibility
Doing more includes once again urging countries that have adopted food protectionism to correct their mistakes immediately
Second, take concrete actions to immediately urge all parties concerned to engage with the ongoing process
Without conflict to free up the capacity of the two major food producers, the third is to urge all concerned to ensure the safety of the Black Sea shipping lanes
To make sure that food gets out of Ukraine. And to take decisive action
To prevent the ongoing anti-globalization phenomena such as the us-China trade war to ensure the normalization of global food trade
Ok, thank you, Mr. Liu, for sharing your views with us online. Thank you
