Why Is Russia Banning GMOs While the US Keeps Approving Them? | |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 65537708 United Kingdom 11/27/2014 05:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So why is Russia joining with other Western counties to run tests on the safety of GMOs? Do you not think it a BIT suspicious that Russia along with other Western countries launched what they are calling the world largest study of GM crops on human health and the environment in London? Or that they are planting test crops in various location in Western Europe AND Russia.. [link to factorgmo.com] The Problem I see with these studies is if you are going to do them then you really need to carry them out on isolated islands or you will get cross contamination. Big risk having such crops, even for tests in any country. Do you not think it a BIT suspicious that this study is being framed in the US media as Russian sponsored when it is taking place in Western Europe AND Russia, while being launched in London and being funded by the EU and Russia. There are no commerical GM crops in the UK, and in Europe the only really commercial GM Crops are a maize (Monsanto) for animal feed, but even that is also banned in France, Germany, Greece, Austria, Luxemburg and Hungary.. The other crop is grown in Germany and Sweden is a small amount of modified potatoes (BASF) for paper making, but the legality of that one has since been annulled, so really only one commerical GM crop in the whole of Europe. The EU and Europe as a whole is not in favour of GM crops.. So there is much more to this Russian ban as it mirrors moves made by US allies, in fact if you turn it around the US is the odd one out. It'll be interesting to see the pressure those allies come under in the coming months.. but then I expect the excuse national government in the West will use is that they need to wait the outcome of the study.. |

NOMNOMNOM! Not directly, just indirectly as animal feed, which is already brought in from Europe.. And there is already a growing lobby to label those that have been fed on GM crops. The US is not the biggest worry in this regard but South America (Brazil/Argentina) as that is the real back door being used to bring in unlabelled feed in Europe. |

It certainly is interesting as it changes the dynamics completely from a Russia bashing the US, which we could put down to the current "conflict by other means" that we see enacted elsewhere to something much more wide reaching. |

Epic Beard Guy User ID: 64860705 United States 11/27/2014 08:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's because Putin is not trying to reduce the population. GMOs are a tough subject to debate. On one hand they have made it possible to feed the world. On the other hand, that food is poison. It not only poison the one eating it, but probably all of his descendants. The potential for DNA damage is the worst part of GMOs, but nobody seems to care enough to actually research it. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. "America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards." -- Claire Wolfe |

GMO's create sickness, big Pharma has to step in, meaning BIG MONEY. Who supplies the money for the Government campaigns? Big Pharma! Who sponsors the television stations? Big Pharma! FDA, Big Pharma, Mainstream media, government, bankers, Monsanto....around and around it goes, and it represents big money for all of them, and big money means control of the population. Russia is not into killing their own people. United States is. Population control is in effect. |
