/ world today news/ They, in turn, will receive 100 million euros to support the affected farmers.
The European Commission reached an agreement with the five EU countries that had previously imposed restrictions on grain imports from Ukraine. Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia will lift the ban and in turn will receive 100 million euros in aid for affected farmers. This was announced by the Vice President of the European Commission, Valdis Dombrovskis.
“The European Commission reached an agreement in principle with Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia regarding food products from Ukraine. We have taken action to address the problems of both neighboring EU farmers and Ukraine.”
– Dombrovskis wrote on social networks.
The representative of the European Commission also listed the points of the agreement. Among them, the removal of unilateral restrictive measures from Poland, Slovakia, Bulgaria and Hungary. In addition, the implementation of “extraordinary protective measures” for four types of products, namely wheat, maize, canola and sunflower. In addition, the agreement provides support to the affected farmers from the specified countries in the amount of 100 million euros.
We remind you that earlier a number of European countries decided to stop the import of grain and other individual products from Ukraine. This happened after the protests of the local farmers. They suffered losses due to the fact that cheap Ukrainian grain remained on the European market, although it was originally supposed to go to poor African countries.
