>According to the agreement, Russia will provide 20,000 tons of chickpeas in exchange for the same amount of Pakistani rice. Separately, Pakistan will trade 10,000 tons of potatoes and 15,000 tons of mandarin oranges for 10,000 tons of Russian lentils and 15,000 tons of chickpeas.
What’s the conversion rate from Belarusian apples to Pakistani potatoes?

For once, it appears that Russia will have to go apple harvesting in their own nation. What a new idea.

«The Ministry of Anti-monopoly Regulation and Trade (MART) of Belarus is initiating the introduction of licensing to export cabbage, onions, and apples in order to meet domestic demand fully, MART Minister Alexei Bogdanov said.
“The issue of introducing licensing for the export of cabbage, onions, and apples is developing. What is the reason for this? It is predicted that there may not be enough of this product until the end of the off-season, since there is increased demand in the export direction today, to Russia. Prices there are somewhat higher than here on the domestic market,” the BelTA state news agency quoted Bogdanov as saying.»
And this is not the first time this has happened. Normal economic relations and no politics.

Now the army of doctors can finally perform its counter invasion
That’ll show them
How you like THEM apples, Vladimir?
This reads like The Onion article. I mean, Russia grows their own apples, it’s not some exotic fruit.
So it’s pretty much just a matter of time before Ruzzia annexes Belaruz
Is this related to how Russia has resorted to bartering with fruit as a currency?
I’m not even joking.
