Goya Foods CEO: Closing Keystone Pipeline, COVID Lockdowns ‘Big Mistake’

Goya Foods CEO Robert Unanue told Newsmax on Friday that a possible coming food shortage started with President Joe Biden’s decision last year to stop the Keystone XL pipeline construction, combined with lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to supply chain disruptions around the world, and now, the Russian invasion of Ukraine could mean a food shortage is on the horizon.

”Certainly, closing down the Keystone pipeline, which more than covers anything [energy-related] that we would need from Russia, was a big mistake,” Unanue said on ”The Chris Salcedo Show.” ”Shutting down our economy with COVID was another big mistake. It put us into a tailspin with the supply chain and all that now does.”.. (Excerpt from Newsmax)
