Armenia is introducing a temporary ban on the export of grain (wheat, barley, corn), as well as sunflower oil. The decision was made at a government meeting on Thursday.

As noted by the Cabinet, the measure is aimed at strengthening the country’s food security.

The authorities emphasize that Armenia covers a significant part of the consumption of these products through imports – about two-thirds of wheat and 100% of sunflower oil are imported into the country, mainly from Russia.

The ban is set for a period of six months in accordance with the rules in force within the Eurasian Economic Union.
