Great article detailing the infuriatingly timid #US response to #Russia ending the #BlackSeaGrainInitiative & threatening to attack commercial shipping in the #BlackSea heading to ports in #Ukraine. Also gives some good background about little discussed shenanigans by Russia in the Black Sea, especially early in the war (attacking #NATO flagged vessels, illegally seizing commercial ships).
This self-deterrence by the #Biden administration B/C "escalation" is maddening.
