Belarus offer on Ukrainian grain exports is a trap – Lithuanian president

Ukrinform
Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda has said he considers an offer by Belarus to transport Ukrainian grain through its territory to be a trap and an attempt to avoid sanctions.

According to Ukrinform, he said this on Twitter.

"An offer by Belarus to transport Ukrainian grain through its territory to Lithuania is just another attempt to escape sanctions. Ukrainian grain already travels through Poland and other countries to Baltic ports. It is a trap. Let's not fall into it," Nauseda wrote.

Belarus previously agreed to the transit of Ukrainian grain through its territory for its further export from Lithuanian ports.
