Dear Galen,

One would have thought you might have parked your notoriously pugnacious attitude for the Holy holiday but it seems as always you can't help yourself.

As I am a little more respectful I will just offer this:

Below are the 15 countries that exported the highest dollar value worth of wheat during 2019.

Russia: US$6.4 billion (16.7% of total wheat exports)
United States: $6.3 billion (16.4%)
Canada: $5.4 billion (14.1%)
France: $4.4 billion (11.4%)
Australia: $2.51 billion (6.6%)
Argentina: $2.45 billion (6.4%)
Ukraine: $1.6 billion (4.3%)
Romania: $1.29 billion (3.4%)
Germany: $1.25 billion (3.3%)
Kazakhstan: $1 billion (2.6%)

And this for 2018:

1 Russia 8,400
2 Canada 5,700
3 United States 5,500
4 France 4,100
5 Australia 3,100
6 Ukraine 3,000
7 Argentina 2,400
8 Romania 1,230
9 Germany 1,160

And let you respond.

I’m lost to know why your banging on about France, when it’s the EU issuing the gripe.

What the EU will achieve with this nonsense, is to drive a wedge between Asia and the West.

Au will have no choice but to reestablish relations with China as a consequence.
This at a time when the US is beating the drum against China.

Very short sighted.

As a PS, I would think this a great moment for Au to totally dump out the $90bn French submarine contract and invite the Chinese to tender.

Dan

I agree the perfect time to dump France, & the rest of the EU. They obviously can't be trusted to supply anything they have been contracted to supply, Vaccine for example so we should be able to do it free & clear.

Banning the import of European cars would be a good first response to no supply of vaccines.

Don't think Chinese subs would be a good idea Diver, but US nuclear subs, even leased would be the most sensible choice. They might just be of some use as a deterrent too.

Well Steel

Lying again, now you claim it’s via dollar value that’s not what you claimed.

Here it is by tonnage, which completely sinks your two posts full of lies.

# Country Quantity
tonnes
1  Russia 33,025,971
2  United States 27,299,214
3  Canada 22,061,500
4  Australia 21,985,900
5  Ukraine 17,314,278
6  France 15,228,664
7  Argentina 13,099,133
8  Germany 7,890,971
9  Romania 5,759,094
10  Kazakhstan 4,256,341

Please explain, liar?

Hasbeen.

I’d trust the Chinese before Biden. Which of course means neither can be trusted.
The Chinese are well established in Asia, as they are in Australia.
A view away from Europe and towards Asia is realistic.
