Yeah.

In this case is very hard to pick side since the whole industry in EU is so regulated and subsidized that it would be hard to find something farther from free market 😅.

But as usually the farmers (and consumers) at the end of that chain are the one suffering most.

I am with the farmers. Local food production should be protected. Also consuming fuel to send food in a place far away does not sound ideal at all to me.

Maybe there should be rules and internventions for specific stuff. Maybe not for some others. Different situations may need different approach. I usually don't support the "one size fits all" view...

Yes i agree with that. Let me refrase. I support local food production specifically, especially the one that comes from small farmers and not big food industries (small farmers is the usual case here in Greece).

100%

If you are in the mood, we can go deeper to the rabbit hole. By chance i read this article today, just now (it is a recent article). https://canadianpatriot.org/2025/01/07/how-an-austrian-and-british-malthusian-brainwashed-a-generation-of-americans-2/
