This could cost Ukraine a loss of 1.2 billion euros in trade revenue. The member states that show the most support for Ukraine are also the ones that do the most harm to it.

France has decided to join Poland in demanding further restrictions on the import of Ukrainian agricultural products, threatening to derail Kyiv’s free trade extension negotiations with the EU for another year. Politico reported this on Monday, March 18, citing three European diplomats.

It was learned that French President Emmanuel Macron and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk met on Friday at the Weimar Triangle summit in Berlin, where they called for support for Ukraine.

However, the two leaders also agreed to bring Paris and Warsaw closer together, diplomats said, ahead of key talks on Tuesday night aimed at resolving last-minute differences between EU countries and the European Parliament on trade in Ukraine.

The change will cost Ukraine 1.2 billion euros in trade revenue, according to Commission estimates cited by two diplomats who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the closed-door negotiations.

“It’s a big cut for a country that needs all the help it can get,” one diplomat said.

“Member states that show their support for Ukraine are the most harmful to the country.”

The publication notes that if the dispute is not resolved quickly, it could overshadow the EU leaders’ summit in Brussels this Thursday – and expose the statements of unity leaders in Ukraine as empty while they are in under pressure at home from farmers who say they cannot compete with cheap imports.

It was previously reported that the Czech Republic will propose to the EU a ban on grain imports from Russia. Last year, 1.5 million tons of grain were imported from Russia to the EU, which is more than before the start of the full-scale Russian war against Ukraine.
