Ukraine (Mod Note & Threadbanned Users in OP)

I've been warned by the mod about this post. So let me elaborate here.

I wouldn't have to post this if you didn't fail at moderating. It's unsustainable.

I do appreciate the rules and all that. But we are at war. A significant part of that war is a hybrid war waged by the Russian disinformators against the whole EU. Ireland included.

We're not in a normal situation. We cannot be weak. This is the reason why Russian regime has had so much influence in the EU, especially the Western part - we are too weak and too nice. They abuse us being too nice, they abuse our freedom of speech. Freedom of speech has a limit (unlike Musk says). Denial of genocide and atrocities is beyond that limit and must be acted upon.

Slava Ukrajini!

I think there's a distinction between aiding a national war effort, and providing care to those who need it after the fact.

Amidst this, economists across the board are predicting the global energy and food crises the Ukraine invasion is causing, is bringing us right up to the precipice of a subsequent global economic crises.

As in, "stock pile your food, the currency is going all the way south".

Christ, the entire EU is taking part in this. Treating foreign soldiers means we aren't neutral? We were never a neutral country.Militarily we are a joke but politically never neutral.

From the latest maps of the frontline it looks like the Russians are some way to closing an encirclement of Ukraining forces around Servodonesk. They may need to pull out of there soon.

"The EU sanction prohibiting Russian-flagged vessels accessing EU ports has an explicit derogation, or exemption, to allow for the import of agricultural and food products.

These exemptions are included to ensure security of supply of food and other essential products on the European market"

Looks to me like the deliveries you mentioned have correctly abided by the rules around import restrictions. What precisely is the issue?
