    This isn’t exactly true - common agricultural policies were one of the first instated, after WW2, to ensure Europe would not starve again.

      you’re right, my bad.

      but – food security it’s certainly not the main driver behind political decisions anymore.

        i’d argue that especially now this would actually still be the case, though i think if food prices need to remain low enough, it’s crucial that Europe green up.

        that said, outside of this energy crisis, yeah, i agree.
