Dispute over Ukrainian grain. Controversy over Zelensky’s remarks

In recent times, Volodymyr Zelensky has paid visits to the United States and Canada. These overseas meetings of the Ukrainian leader coincided with a cooling of relationships between Kyiv and Warsaw. Mid-September saw Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary extending the embargo on the import of Ukrainian agricultural products. In response, Kyiv authorities filed an official complaint with the World Trade Organization.

The conflict escalated when, during a speech in the US, Volodymyr Zelensky stated, “It’s disturbing how some of our European friends play at political theater, turning grain into a thriller. It may seem like they’re playing their own part, but in fact, they’re setting the stage for the Moscow actor”.

The Ukrainian President’s statement ignited a wave of commentary and caused some controversy. President Andrzej Duda of Poland addressed it on Polish news channel Polsat News, among others. “Of course, there is a certain dispute transitioning into a legal one between Poland and Ukraine over the grain issue. This also stemmed from the fact that incomplete information has been shared in the public space for quite some time,” he said.

The president conveyed that he received Zelensky’s words “with great regret”. “I don’t hide it, there is a certain disappointment in my heart. I understand all those who are bitterly disappointed very well. Indeed, there are few such countries in the world that have helped Ukraine and Ukrainians as much as we have in recent times”, he highlighted.
