Tridge summary

The European Union is set to impose duties on grain imports from Russia and Belarus, potentially increasing prices by at least 50%. The duties will be €95 per ton for grain and 50% of the cost for oilseeds and their processed products. While this move is expected to support local European farmers, it could lead to higher bread prices in Europe.

Novikova suggests that the market will remain unchanged, indicating no expected decrease in prices.
