Trump administration 2024-2028

I am by no means an export on any of this, but from the mixed sources I've read, it seems Russia and Belarus already sell their potash to more local markets, such as China, India, and South-East Asia. Russia has had some trouble selling potash from the sanctions, but has found workarounds.

From my understanding, the Belarus / Russia potash is generally considered an inferior product. Canada has vast high-grade deposits.

Does it make any sense for the USA to get Potash from Russia and / or Belarus when a superior product is available locally from Canada?

It seems like a lot of international shipping essentially for no reason? How does this benefit the USA in any way?
They want to buy more from their friends and they want to buy less from their enemies.

Donald Trump sues BBC for up to $10bn over edit of January 6 speech​

President accuses corporation of ‘intentionally, maliciously and deceptively’ editing speech in Panorama broadcast

Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against the BBC over its editing of a speech he made to supporters in Washington before they stormed the US Capitol in 2021, requesting up to $10bn in damages.

The US president alleged the broadcaster “intentionally, maliciously, and deceptively” edited his 6 January speech before the insurrection, in an episode of Panorama just over a year ago.

In a complaint filed on Monday evening, Trump sought $5bn in damages each on two counts: alleging that the BBC defamed him, and that they violated Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act.

The Panorama edit, taken from sections of his speech almost an hour apart, suggested Trump told the crowd: “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and I’ll be there with you, and we fight. We fight like hell.”

The BBC did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the lawsuit. It has previously acknowledged the editing was an “error of judgment” and apologized to Trump, but insisted there was no legal basis for a claim.

I’ll be curious to know what the legal reasoning is to assert that courts in Florida have jurisdiction on the matter.

Doesn't have to make sense with this Administration.

Obviously this is support for Russia (Russian potash designated as Belarus). There is got to be undisclosed money make with this deal.

Dishonest media has done the most damage to the West. I hope the BBC takes a massive hit for that.
