Slovakia plans to temporarily suspend imports of grain and other products from Ukraine. This was reported anonymously by a representative of the Slovakian government, Reuters wrote.

The decision, which will be discussed at a meeting later on Monday, follows similar steps taken by Poland and Hungary.

The Guardian writes that the ambassadors of EU countries in Brussels will raise the issue of suspending the import of Ukrainian grain from Poland and Hungary.

The official, speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity, said low global prices and demand meant the grain remained on the block rather than being sold.

“We expect that Poland and Hungary will provide some kind of explanation, and there will also be a reaction from the European Commission,” the official said.

He added that this issue was raised at the last summit of EU national leaders, including Slovakia and Romania.

“There is a problem, and we expect the commission to come up with a proposal on this matter. Let’s see what we can do in the coming weeks and months,” the source said.

Earlier it was reported that Poland has stopped importing agricultural products from Ukraine.
