WorldLithuania calls for EU sanctions on Russian grain

Lithuanian Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevicius renewed calls for EU sanctions on Russian grain, calling it unacceptable that Russia can export grain while blockading Ukraine. Lithuania plans to propose banning Russian grain transit through the EU and sanctioning Russian agricultural oligarchs who support the war. It has also tightened checks on grain origins.
