Milk and yogurt certainly are, also bread, also lots of food stuff. As far as I know almost no country has gone isolationist on that (with a few exceptions, such as China, which is at least trying).
One can win a grand war without access to uranium, but you need access to bread and milk if you don’t want to repeat Germany’s WW1 fate.

Which is why both US and Europe protect and subsidize those sectors to a fault.
Europe isn’t a country, and unfortunately my country (Romania) would be left empty-handed in case of the worst (this pandemic has proved it).

You don't say! Completely irrelevant, since agricultural policy for the EU is made by the EU, and individual countries then write their local laws accordingly.
