"but I doubt it, because the latter made some outrageous requests to do so."
Weren't these "outrageous requests" signed on in the parallel memorandum of understanding (MoU) ? They included removal of sanctions on the main Russian agricultural bank and Russian fertilizers. Russia has stated said as soon as those terms in the memorandum are implemented, they will resume the grain deal.
- petre 3y agoGood luck with that. It's essentially blackmail, just like with the "roll NATO back to 1991, remove anti ICBM systems from Eastern Europe" outrageous requests. It's easier and more effective to weaponize Ukraine and harden NATO's Eastern flank. The US in contrast with Russia respects the memorandums it signed, like the Budapest memorandum.
- spywaregorilla 3y agoThose are outrageous requests. The very effective sanctions are a large part of their non-military punishment.
