1 2 3 Russia is ready to share food with neighbors and friends: Sergei Shoigu.
At the 14th annual meeting of the Secretaries of the Security Councils of the Commonwealth of Independent States, which took place on Monday, the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Sergei Shoigu spoke about the situation with energy prices in the post-Soviet countries, as well as about food security.
Speaking about the situation in the energy market, Shoigu pointed out that in several post-Soviet countries, purchases of European energy resources are not accompanied by an adequate standard of living for the population. As an example he mentioned Moldova and Ukraine.
"In many countries, the energy resources are European, but life is far from European. I do not take the same Moldova, Ukraine. If we are talking about Moldova, when trying on European clothes, it would be nice to think about your underwear," Shoigu said.
Regarding the issues of food security, the Secretary of the Russian Security Council emphasized that Russia produces basic types of food in surplus and is ready to share it with neighboring and friendly countries.
"As for food security, here, if we are talking about Russia, we produce all types of food in excess, we can share with our neighbors and friends," Shoigu said following the meeting.
He also recalled that Russia is one of the leaders in the world in the supply of fertilizers.
