flag Latvia's parliament adopts a ban on Russian and Belarusian agricultural products.

flag Latvia's parliament has adopted a ban on imports of Russian and Belarusian agricultural products, making it the first EU country to introduce such a prohibition. flag The move follows Latvia's strong criticism of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and comes after the country's failed attempts to push for a ban of Russian grain imports at the EU level. flag In 2023, Latvia imported €280 million ($304 million) worth of Russian agricultural products, making it the second-largest importer in the EU. flag The ban will not impact the transit of grain onward to other markets.
