Ambassadors from Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Poland, and Hungary are discussing actions in Brussels regarding the Ukrainian grain crisis. Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia have banned Ukrainian grain imports due to high pesticide residues, with Slovakia planning to seal containers and transport them safely to third countries. Bulgaria and Romania are still considering a ban, despite concerns about solidarity and their own economic losses. The European Commission has expressed that unilateral national measures are unacceptable, as trade policy is within the EU's exclusive competence, and an aid package for the affected countries is anticipated.
