Farmers in major food-exporting countries like Thailand are cutting planting, reducing fertilizer use, or abandoning crops entirely because costs are higher than potential profits.

Thailand’s rice sector is being hit especially hard.

Some farmers are leaving fields empty, while others are planting only part of their normal acreage.

Urea shortages and record fuel prices are making farming financially unsustainable.

Since Thailand is one of the world’s biggest rice exporters, reduced production could push global rice prices sharply higher later in 2026.

The crisis is spreading across Southeast and South Asia, where millions depend on agriculture for income and food security.

How stupid are they? Stupid people. They think that, well, I will get tired of this, I will get bored, I will have some pressure.

There is no pressure at all. We will have a complete victory. We already, in theory, have a complete victory from a military standpoint.

Iran told me, “You are getting the nuclear dust, but you will have to get it.”

They said, “You and China are the only ones that can get it because the sites were obliterated.”

There are the moderates and the lunatics in Iran.

The moderates are more respected. The lunatics want to fight to the end.

We have lunatics in our country too.

The announcement came hours after Trump rejected Iran's latest ceasefire proposal as "TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE."

Our armed forces are ready to deliver a well-deserved response to any aggression; mistaken strategy and mistaken decisions will always lead to mistaken results— the whole world has already figured this out.

We are prepared for all options; they will be surprised.

France for 25 years was pushed around in Africa. And that's normal, and that's very good.

Since we are French, everything is open to us... Well, no, it's over!

The Chinese have arrived, the Turks, the Americans, many others, and many other Africans, who said we are more competitive than you.

As Israel and the US are “doing Europe’s dirty work” by fighting for civilization against Jihadist lunatics in Iran and elsewhere, the European Union exposed its moral bankruptcy by drawing a false symmetry between Israeli citizens and Hamas terrorists.

European politicians are coerced by their radical constituencies but sanctioning Jews for living in Judea and Samaria is unacceptable.

Judea is where Jews come from and Israel will always protect the rights of Jews to live in the heart of our ancestral homeland.

The European Union's attempts to sanction Israeli civilians is a further sign of weakness and will not succeed.
