As soon as all the agreements recorded on lifting sanctions on the export of russian Agricultural Products are lifted. Ukraines black sea ports are now effectively blockaded by russia, experts say it will have to rely heavily on its ports along the danube river to export grain into neighbouring romania from where it can be transported further afield as romanias ports remain open.
