Not a word from you to criticize how "RF demands that Africans starve for its empire, rather than take grain from Ukraine" (by the means of naval embargo against the Ukrainian exports)?
Isn't blockading ports pretty standard in times of war? That's the 'problem' with most of what Russia is doing - it's just business as usual. How can you criticize something that has been done since time immemorial, including by some of the powers who now whine about Russia.
On the other hand, what the US is doing is pretty extraordinary, trying to cancel an entire country, and engaging in what I see as economic terrorism.
Not quite, not globally since WWII and even then it was localized to conflict zones (India/Bengal included due to the fighting in Burma on the Indian border). Also even Stalin just starved Ukraine while exporting their wheat (to use the money from it to build the Donbas industry among other industrial centers).

Just business as usual, canceling an entire continent by mass starvation: https://youtube.com/watch?v=6zRj1dfUbb4
According to this article, Russia has been trying to send/sell grain to those countries, and the US is saying "no, pls starve instead, Russia bad".
America isn't using their navy to enforce it.
But I know, words are violence and war is peace.
Oh, so you don't have a problem with Russia starving Africa by force. OK.
Also their war disrupted this year's sowing and will disrupt the harvests too.
Well yeah, that is what war does, and has always done, unfortunately.
