Under sanctions, Russia remains the largest wheat exporter
Restrictions in the form of sanctions did not affect the bulk of winter crop production.
About this at the round table of the Expert Institute for Social Research on the topic: “Four rings of sanctions against Russia: how does the country resist pressure?” said Deputy Executive Director for Strategy and Forecasting of the Expert Institute for Social Research Ekaterina Sokolova, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The picture is quite calm. The domestic market is provided by grain, butter and milk. Almost entirely dairy products. The importer of dairy products, which closes the remaining ones, is mainly Belarus. Therefore, there should be no interruption in food supply,” she emphasized.
“At the same time, the restrictions did not affect the main part of production - these are winter crops, a quite decent harvest is expected. Russia remains the largest exporter of wheat and oil and fat products, and soaring prices and a good harvest promise good export benefits,” the expert noted
