Russian President Vladimir Putin has delivered a serious warning to the West that a major influx of migrants is about to happen thanks to the global food crisis.
Western sanctions on Russia coupled with the energy crisis have destabilized the global supply of food and apparently we have reached a breaking point where people will begin to flee countries with a greater food supply.
The United Nations has warned that food riots are a very real possibility in the Middle East while people in western countries like the United Kingdom and America are facing unprecedented food inflation and skyrocketing energy bills.
“People’s resilience is at a breaking point. This crisis is creating shock waves in the food markets that touch every home in this region. No one is spared,” Corinne Fleischer, WFP Regional Director said.
Putin laid the blame at the feet of western politicians who are willing to sacrifice their citizens’ interests in order to “enjoy the good graces of their overseas master and overlord.”
Putin said, “People are urged to eat less, put on more clothes, and use less heating, give up on travel – presumably for the benefit of the people who are demanding this kind of voluntary deprivation as a sign of some abstract North Atlantic solidarity.”
Earlier this month, billionaire-owned Bloomberg News told Americans to eat lentils instead of meat and allow their pets to die in order to save money.
A government minister also told Germans they should cope with soaring energy costs by merely turning off the heating and wearing warmer sweaters.
Putin blamed the west for decisions that are “pushing the global economy towards crisis,” warning of a huge drop in living standards for westerners in addition to poverty and starvation in the third world.
