Quote: "I think it is the right decision that the Polish government kept the ban on the sale of Ukrainian grain on the Polish market.

However, I am absolutely sure that everything must be done to ensure the maximum possible transit," the Polish president emphasised. According to Duda, Ukrainian grain "did not reach those countries that needed it," but went to markets such as Polish. "The Polish government had to take radical steps to support Polish farmers, protect our market and agriculture," Duda added.

Tensions between the two countries are associated with Polish unilateral restrictions on Ukrainian agricultural products and Ukraine's response. Ukraine has proposed to the European Commission and Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria and Romania an export control plan for four crop groups - wheat, maize, sunflower and rapeseed - to protect their domestic markets. Nevertheless, Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary announced unilateral restrictions on Ukrainian imports, prompting Ukraine to file a complaint against these three countries with the World Trade Organisation.
