Global rice shortage is set to be the biggest in 20 years

Yes but the purpose of sanctions isn't important to me. My question is has the war increased the prices of fuel that the global supply chain relies on and, in turn, wholesale prices for goods.

Cool. But if you’re only going to look out for yourself, don’t be surprised when you’re at the bottom of the list of concerns for people who are looking to cooperate for the common good.

That's sorta twisting my words to the point that I'm struggling not to be offended.

Of course the sanctions are important to me.

But the original question was Does the war in Ukraine affect global prices for seemingly unrelated things.

When I say the purpose of the sanctions aren't important to me I feel it's obvious that I mean only within the context of answering this question.

Sure. Sorry. Fwiw, I don’t think that’s implied at all however. I think it strongly implies that the purpose of the sanctions simply don’t matter to you. Which is a common opinion
