This week, Ukrainian and Polish agricultural associations will continue negotiations to unblock the border and continue the transit of grain and other agricultural products from Ukraine.

This was announced by Taras Vysotskyi, First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine, during a national telethon.

“It is very important that the associations of different sectors have established a connection and will continue to meet this week to clearly agree on the parameters (of export and transit of Ukrainian agricultural products – Ed.). Everyone realized (at the Ukrainian-Polish meeting in Poland last week – Ed.) that interaction and cooperation, agreements will ultimately have the best result,” he said.

According to Vysotsky, in the first two weeks of April, a meeting of the Polish and Ukrainian sides is planned in an expanded format, where farmers of the two countries will look for ways to cooperate. It is expected that this could also become the basis for agreements at the interstate level. Agrarian associations will work on each industry whose representatives were at the talks, including raspberries, juice, honey, eggs, grain, and poultry.

“There is a cautious optimism in this regard, which gives us hope that after a few more meetings to fix the final parameters, we will finally be able to solve this problem,” Vysotsky emphasized.

He also added that the issue of transit of Ukrainian grain is raised at all international meetings.

“Ukraine insists that transit should be available without stops and blockages,” the First Deputy Minister summarized.
