Hmm... just the reverse of the China syndrome. 

 

China bans something and there is a big price drop.

 

Russia bans something and there is a nice price rise.

Who cares?

 

Russia been around for bout 1,300 years and likely to keep on keepin on for another 1,300.

 

i tend to feel the ussr is basically drought proof. 

course since they get their other supposed "priorities" in the way of agri there...they'll never really produce anything anyway.  MO
