    Rabobank: That Is Perhaps The End Of Western Liberal Global Capitalism As We Knew It

    You cannot manufacture supply out of thin air. Ukraine and Russia supplies a lot of the world's commodities. If you curtail supplies, who do you hurt? Those who use those commodities which is the US and Europe, who use a good chunk of it to manufacture a lot of goods?
