The Bulgarian government believes the action plan for exports of agricultural products that Ukraine presented to the European Commission is acceptable, Ukraine's Agrarian Policy and Food Ministry said in a press release.

"Bulgaria has its own proposals for the mechanism presented by Ukraine for licensing certain types of agricultural products. Specifically, this concerns sunflower seeds. Bulgaria does not have objections against exports of the other three crops," the ministry said.

Bulgaria's Agriculture Ministry said on its website that Vatev familiarized Solsky with the memorandum that the Bulgarian government signed with the action committee of the country's farmers calling for a ban on sunflower seeds from Ukraine until the end of November.

After this, Ukrainian exports of sunflower seeds, wheat, corn and rapeseed will be subject to licensing in line with the plan Ukraine agreed with the EC.

Vatev also reported that Bulgarian farmers and processors are concerned about imports of refined and unrefined sunflower oil, powdered milk, honey, sugar and frozen raspberries from Ukraine. It is very important to discuss all problems that affect farmers and look for ways to solve them together, he said.

The Bulgarian ministry also said that the exchange of information between the two countries' agriculture ministries on exports and imports of certain agricultural goods will become weekly.

The Ukrainian ministry said the ministers agreed to work out the technical details of the procedure for exports of agricultural products to Bulgaria and discuss the results in the first half of October. ■
