Putin’s War on Cheese
“Tonnes of pork tossed into incinerators, truckloads of cheese bulldozed into the ground, and an orchard’s worth of apples buried in a shallow grave,” Shaun Walker of the Guardian reports. “The visuals of Russia’s stepped-up fight against sanctioned foodstuffs have been dramatic, and left many Russians wondering why so much is being destroyed in a country where millions of people live below the poverty line.”
This is simply ridiculous, but Putin, with his Soviet complex, feels he has to do this since Europe and America don’t recognise his bullying of Ukraine and annexation of Crimea. What Europe needs to do is to stop buying his gas and oil. Hopefully, Russian people will soon realise that their leader is a crook and topple him from his throne.
