potash fertilizers

The reason is the EU and U.S. sanctions

Transit will stop indefinitely

On February 1, 2022, Lithuania stopped the transit of Belaruskali products through its territory.

They decided not to take any action until the government commission had made a decision.

But these contracts will first be checked by a special government commission

The Norwegian company Yara International announced the discontinuation of purchasing potash fertilisers from Belarus by 1 April 2022. Yara is a principal partner of the Belarusian state-owned company Belaruskali.

“That doesn’t mean sanctions don’t work and won’t work.”

The decision will be made by December

Lithuania may completely stop the transit of Belarusian potash fertilizers, Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis told journalists in the wake of Wednesday’s meeting of the Cabinet. The EU member country has already addressed Brussels with a proposal to expand sanctions against Belarus, Delfi reports.

Restrictions should also affect Russia
