“The goals of the Americans are always clear and simple: to ensure that they have more than anyone else.
Politics is always pragmatic in this sense.
Unfortunately, it leads to negative global consequences,” he said.
According to Oreshkin, it is also clear what Americans and Europeans will do, like other rich countries, in this crisis - they will print more dollars and more euros and buy food around the world.
“We know how the same America consumes much more calories than the rest.
In principle, we have no problems with food in the world, there is enough food, but it is concentrated in individual countries, a significant part, so other countries are starving, ”said the presidential aide.
If food were distributed more evenly around the world, the problem of hunger would be solved, he noted.
“But they buy.
Unfortunately, this will doom the countries of Africa and the countries of the Arab world to starvation, ”concluded Oreshkin.
He also expressed the opinion that the crises observed in the food and fuel markets are clearly not caused by recent events around Ukraine.
Mistakes were made in the United States during the pandemic crisis, as well as in Europe, where the reliance on short-term contracts drove up energy prices, the aide to the Russian president said.
