Ukraine’s Food Exports To The EU Down By 17.5% In Q2 Post-War

Ukraine’s food exports to the EU have declined in the post-war period, specifically in the immediate aftermath of the Russia-Ukraine war, which started out in February this year. Following the first quarter of 2022, the second quarter registered a significant downfall.

Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, food security in several countries has lessened, while the prices of food inflation have soared. Developed nations such as the EU, US, and UK have turned their attention to restricting Russian items, so the only hope is Ukraine.
