Poland, Hungary and Slovakia have announced a ban on imports of Ukrainian agricultural products. Ukraine is calling for a review of the import ban, and there are concerns about the impact.
Agricultural products from Ukraine that can no longer be transported by sea to Africa and other countries due to Russia's military invasion of Ukraine are being brought in by land as a transit point to use other European ports. Ukraine's Ministry of Agriculture and Food has expressed its understanding of the plight of neighboring farmers, but wants to find solutions more rigorously for Ukrainian farmers.
