The complete backfiring of sanctions on Russia, in Poland
“On the Barricades” s05e18
Like in other Eastern European countries where the pro-Western government bases its support on Russiaphobic impulse, and operates by inviting collateral damage and in whatever other subservient role it can play for the larger geo-political and economic “strategy” of the West, the Polish government has aimed to present itself as a courageous leader in cutting economic ties with Russia since the war in Ukraine began– especially ties to fossil fuels.
In this extra episode of “On the Barricades”, host Boyan Stanislavski provides some solo commentary on the fast-developing and devastating effect of the implementation of this policy of sanctions on Russia, on Polish industry. Boyan covers:
How the Polish government’s refusal to buy Russian natural gas has led to the complete shutdown of two major fertilizer producers, due to not being able to afford gas, in the last days. This will spell disaster for the agriculture industry and likely contribute to a hike in food prices.
How the cement industry is at risk of closing its plants, since it will run out of supply of coal in the next weeks. This will potentially cripple the construction industry and exacerbate the housing crisis.
