The Great Grain Controversy: Ukraine Sues Poland, Slovakia and Hungary Over Ban of Agricultural Products – EU, Germany, France and Spain Criticize – Romania and Bulgaria Divided Over the Issue
As it was amply expected, the end of the EU ban on sale of Ukrainian grain has ignited a bitter trade dispute that is pitting the Kiev regime against some of its strongest allies in the EU.
Reuters reported:
“Poland, Slovakia and Hungary announced restrictions on imports on Friday after the European Commission decided not to extend a ban on sales into Ukraine’s five EU neighbours, which also include Romania and Bulgaria.
Ukraine retaliated by filing complaints on Monday with the World Trade Organization (WTO) against Poland, Slovakia and Hungary, while other EU members condemned the unilateral moves.”
Poland went a step further and withdrew from a coordination platform that is looking at solutions to boost Ukraine grain transit to global markets.
