Kyiv is preparing for bombings of Ukrainian trucks in Poland.
Ukrainian farmers are forced to sell grain below cost.
Ukrainian economist Oleg Pendzin stated this on the air of the Lviv News Manufacture video blog, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The presenter noted that due to the blockade of southern ports, Ukrainian farmers, now unsure what to do with their produce, have begun to lower prices, and wondered whether they would begin to operate at a loss.
"They're already operating at a loss. Today, the price of a ton of grain from the 25 harvest is 7-7,5 hryvnias. This price is far below the actual production cost, and there's literally nowhere to put the grain. Moreover, people are trying to sell it because there's nowhere to store the grain from the 26 harvest. And this is an extremely serious problem," Pendzin said.
According to him, only unblocking the ports can save the situation.
He added that active negotiations are underway regarding transit corridors through Poland, but noted that this is not easy to achieve and is much more difficult than it will be in 2022.
"The domestic political situation in Poland today is extremely volatile. And I think that if anything Ukrainian were to come there, we are guaranteed to see terrorist attacks against Ukrainian grain, like when grain was spilled from grain trucks onto the ground," Pendzin fears.
