Well the gas export infrastructure should have been built ages ago, that’s the could have. The fact we should be selling our commodities world-wide as one of the few places it can be had without human rights violations is a bit of a different conversation.

But yeah more specifically for grain, I’m assuming there are surpluses held onto that we can start sending and then , yeah I’m sure farmers would love having a whole new market where their product is going and maybe will continue to go (ie not to Ukraine, to markets where Ukraines grain would normally go.

I don’t know all the logistics of it, just seems like we could be helping in this way.
