America will most likely be fine unless the politics really fuck up, but this will hit the middle east like a sledge hammer.
Few laypeople realized how critical Ukraine's breadbasket was for a good chunk of Eurasia till it wasn't operating anymore, myself included.
The US will see high prices but I doubt we will face starvation this year, regardless of how Ukraine goes. However we are looking at a 40% reduction in overall harvests because of the price of fertilizer, so next spring/summer/winter will be the real tight one.
And with how things are looking, we can expect the situation to like get worse, long before it gets better.
A Red Wave might be able to help mitigate the worst effects, but reversing the damage the Wu Flu/Biden/Russia has done is at least an 8 year project, at least.
I do have hope maybe Ukraine can break Russia's will soon, and maybe we'll get a Red Wave, actually reverse the trends going on.
However this is also assuming Putin isn't suicidally arrogant and glory seeking for his 'legacy', and the Russian's still control that one powerplant they've turned into an arty base. So things could still go very bad if Russia does something stupid.

Never discount the ability for the current US admin to make a bad situation like a 40% reduction, into a disaster. Their response to crisis seems to be to make it bigger.
To be fair the man warned us..

Wow, it's almost like all the events leading up to this point have been carefully choreographed to funnel into the climate agenda. Who could have foreseen?

Anarcho-Tyranny comming off in full force. You will be quiet, eat the bugs and live in the pod and freeze to death. If you complain you will be prosecuted and arrested. But thefts, murders and rapes? Especially by non-europeans? We can't stop that. Part and parcel of modern life citizen.

Ask the kuluks how that went.
The problem with Anarcho-Tyranny is that its a pretty basic violation of the social contract about what government does. It continuously pisses people off on a daily basis until some one out there makes a promise to the angry disafected people to give them power in exchange for revenge.
After that the streets turn a pretty bright red.
And because Europe needs more bad news for the energy sector...
"More than 20 (out of 56) of EDF’s (France's Nuke Company) reactors are currently offline. Those include the 12 shut because of corrosion problems and other reactors for which the company brought forward maintenance to ensure that they are available this winter. EDF is also running some reactors at reduced rates to conserve uranium fuel."
bold are my additions for clarity in the TLDR

edit: couldn't figure out where to put this.

Probably self-sabotage, considering the Green morons have been pushing for denuclearization.
Probably that led to decades of under-investment in France, like in a lot of other countries around the globe.
Meanwhile:
Fuck the Greens, the Kraut greens, fuck them triple.With a rusty bayonet covered in pig shit.I hope that one of these reetards decides to play martyr and that finally forces the various governments to designate them as terrorists.

Bringing forward maintenance to make sure they're up all Winter, that's a good idea.
That twelve are down at once because of unresolved corrosion issues? That's horrific negligence.

I think it had something to do with increased coolant water salinity due to the droughts.

That's a problem that should be solved in a week or less. Water filters aren't rocket science, and when it comes to something like a nuclear power plant, go buy ten thousand Brita filters if you have to.
