    Nothing about blowing holes through Russian warships, simply escorting Ukrainian Black Sea grain shipments. Russia is free to fuck off or fire the first shot if they are that determined to let Africans starve from lack of grain.

      @BombOmOm @MaxVoltage OMG they are that stupid?!

      There goes support from BRICS countries and the global south!

      Russia had been busy acting as the anti-colonialist, getting even with their former masters… And there they go, suddenly proving they don’t give a flying fish about people in the south starving, and it’s all been a show. 😂

      Russia already has a presence in the Black Sea.
      They are the ones who can currently block the harbors, and the US ships would have to fire the first shots to force them to leave, free the ports and even get to the Ukrainian ships to escort them.

        Russian warships can’t get within 75 miles of Ukrainian held territory for fear of another Moskva sinking. If Russia wants to open fire on NATO warships on the open sea just so Africans can starve, that is on Russia.
