What damage the Polish ban on grain imports has done to Ukraine
A spokesman for Ukraine's economy ministry believes Polish farmers were "bluffing".
This was stated by Deputy Economy Minister Taras Kachka at the Brussels Economic Forum, Bloomberg reports.
According to Kachka, the Polish government's decision to ban imports of Ukrainian agricultural products caused $143m worth of damage to Ukraine.
In addition, a representative of the Ministry of Economics called the actions of Polish farmers a bluff.
In my opinion, it was really a bluff on the part of Polish farmers.
It is worth mentioning that Poland together with several other European countries imposed a ban on export of Ukrainian food products to their country. This move drew criticism from the EU. But so far it has not brought any tangible results.
