Has Russia declared war on the world by blocking the world's food supplies?

There are reports that we only have nine days of wheat left in the world's market? Yesterday, it was ten days.

The reason is because Russia is blocking millions of tons of products from shipment.

It is not enough that babies do not have enough formula to drink or that gas prices are going thru the roof, now their plan is to starve their way to victory.

I'm sure others may look at it differently.

... the easy part, stating the problem.

Good on the UN considering the matter of food supply, Russians taking hordes of it and trying to sell it is not going over well.
