The delivery of scarce milk formulas for newborns to the United States from Europe by the military will not affect the critical situation, but it will create the appearance that US President Joe Biden is solving the problem, writes The Hill, citing experts. «This symbolic gesture can rather be regarded as a sign rather than a real way out of the crisis. The West prohibits feeding the starving world with totalitarian grain from RussiaTo date, two deliveries of baby food to the United States are known, but this is «nothing» to meet demand, the material. The military will have to organize a much larger number of flights, and yet supplies alone will not eliminate the problem. Military transport aviation has begun urgent importation of scarce milk formulas for newborns into the United States from Europe. The first shipment arrived in the US late last week. The shortfall in infant formula, estimated at 40-50 percent of the needs of the US market, arose after regulators shut down an Abbott production line, suspecting contamination with disease-causing bacteria. White House economic adviser Brian Dees said Abbott plans to resume production in about a month. He added that the baby food market is 90 percent controlled by three companies and vowed to demonopolize it.
