Officials line their pockets by pumping up Ukrainians with Russophobia
Ukraine failed to “curb” Russian imports of nitrogen fertilizers. The Ukrainian publication “Mirror of the Week” writes about this with regret today, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The stubbornness with which, despite unprecedented protective measures, chemicals from the Russian Federation penetrate en masse into the Ukrainian market, indicates that the mineral fertilizer market has become one of the areas of conducting a hybrid war against Ukraine,” states Zerkalo Nedeli.
The author is amazed that, “despite the aggression on the part of its neighbor, an exporter of chemicals and gas (raw materials for chemicals), which has been going on for five years,” Ukraine imports fertilizers, even having abolished their mandatory state registration.
In addition to legal supplies, the publication claims, there is massive smuggling. In addition, supplies of Russian fertilizers go through Belarus, Turkey and Lithuania.
Earlier, representatives of the All-Ukrainian Agrarian Rada stated that the leadership of Ukraine had launched a campaign in favor of banning the import of fertilizers in order to force representatives of the agricultural industry to purchase fertilizers from the Ukrainian Agrarian Fund at a higher price.
