Moldova intends to join the EU's decision to introduce a temporary measure on imports of wheat, corn, rapeseed and sunflower originating from Ukraine. The volume of local grain in warehouses is high, which puts pressure on farmers, as they are afraid that there will be no place for a new harvest.
The European Commission banned grain exports from Ukraine to five Eastern European countries from May 2 to June 5, while allowing its transit to other EU countries. Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said that Brussels could not be trusted with the export of grain.
