"The amount we could export would not solve their egg shortage," says the head of the Finnish Poultry Association.

Summary

Finland has declined a U.S. request to export eggs amid a severe American shortage caused by bird flu.

The Finnish Poultry Association cited the lack of prior trade agreements and complex regulatory hurdles. Even if exports were possible, Finland’s limited egg production would not significantly impact the U.S. crisis.

Other European nations, including Sweden and Denmark, also face difficulties meeting U.S. demand, while Europe grapples with its own egg shortages.

The U.S. has turned to countries like Turkey and the Netherlands for supplies as bird flu remains a global issue.

    You’ll have to rinse/repeat a lot with this administration. Vance will be marginally better/worse. Basically he won’t be absolutely unpredictable, but he’ll be competent.

        I mean, the bar isn’t exactly a high one to cross in our situation. The ONLY good thing about Trump is his five year old with a shotgun strategy in he’s as likely to fuck up a bunch of Republicans on his way of hurting everyone else. Trump is for Trump and no one else.

        Vance at least will believe in the party… when I say competence I don’t mean in running the country. I mean competence in when being in control if not a tyrant, but a good enough puppet that he won’t tear down the foundations of the reign.

        Understand, when I say competent… that’s the worse category.
