economists gabriella fed, elia joins us from vienna. how much relief will today's news bring commodity markets? do you think? well, there's certainly some relief. you know, prices have already anticipated the fact that the green deal is in place and the have started to come down already weeks ago. so what we now see is that the deal olds and that is the good news. when do you think real relief will come to the market? you know, the high prices of all sorts of commodities. we core. so it bees rice also not only depends of course on the, the war new crane. they depend on weather conditions around the cold on the harvest, that is going to come in this full or to started to come in already. and these factors are quite important as well. and so the fact that ukrainian or russian
