(Chris Parker, Headline USA) The border forces throughout Europe are preparing for a mass migration from southern nations as food shortages worsen and the Ukrainian/Russian conflicts continues to boil.
Frontex, the military organization providing border security throughout Europe, said that massive migrations are expected as food supplies dwindle. They largely blame Russia’s attack on Ukraine’s exports as the culprit for food shortages, reported Breitbart.
Yesterday, the agency retweeted an update from EU Council TV News quoting a Frontex spokesperson stating, “Grain transport from Ukraine is hampered, and that will create waves of migration. So we are preparing for that.”
The concerns were raised during an informal meeting of the European Council in Prague on Monday. They also discussed prosecutions for crimes connected to Russia’s war with Ukraine.
“We have to prepare also for refugees coming from other areas because of the food security,” the interim executive director of the Frontex agency Aija Kalnaja said.
The signs of a global food shortage have been slowly revealing themselves over the past few months. The COVID restrictions that lasted nearly two years and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine have put significant strains on the global supply chain.
While the mainstream media has limited its coverage of the impending food shortage, some global leaders have been vocal about the issue. World Food Program Executive Director David Beasley warned that the limited exports from Ukraine, one of the world’s largest exporters of grain, will “be hell on earth” if the conflict isn’t resolved soon. That was in March.
Food shortages hit home for many Americans earlier this year as baby formula began disappearing from store shelves. Many states declared a disaster emergency. The reopening of one of America’s largest plants has helped ease the shortage.
Skyrocketing food prices are already forcing Americans to change the way they shop and eat, while some leftist organizations have suggested eating bugs and pets to cope.
