In a letter addressed to the European commissioner for agriculture Janusz Wojciechowski , Bulgaria’s Minister of Agriculture Yavor Gechev urges the European Commission to speed up the procedure for activating the agricultural reserve with the aim of helping the countries close to the border with Ukraine that have been affected most.
The letter was occasioned by the difficulties Bulgarian producers are facing as a result of excessive imports from Ukraine. There are worrisome amounts of grain kept at warehouses in the country which cannot be sold, the letter reads.
"Bulgaria stands in solidarity with Ukraine… but that does not mean putting the competitiveness of the European agricultural producers at risk," Minister Gechev notes in the letter.
