Executive Summary: 
Tensions between Ukraine and frontline EU member states (MSs: Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria) over agricultural imports from Ukraine fundamentally started when Russia invaded Ukraine and blocked its Black Sea ports in February 2022. As Russia disrupted Ukraine’s seaborne agricultural exports and the EU facilitated alternative trade routes by rail, truck, and barge through its western borders, the frontline EU MSs faced a surge of imports and transits of agricultural products from Ukraine. These first resulted in huge truck ques at the border with Poland and other frontline MSs, farmers’ protests escalated then the situa?on to the point when the frontline EU MSs individually introduced import bans on Ukraine’s agricultural imports in April 2023. European Commission (EC) reacted with two financial compensation packages and with a temporary limit of imports of four agricultural products (wheat, maize, rapeseed, and sunflower seed) from Ukraine until September 15, 2023. After the expiry of the temporary import ban, however, Poland, Hungary and Slovakia continued their unilateral import bans and their farmers continued the protests, cross-border and roads’ blockade. In January 2024 the EC proposed to continue free-trade imports from Ukraine, but under the pressure of farmers’ protests and associations and of a coalition of five frontline EU MSs supported by France, the EC has also agreed to implement safeguard provisions for a list of ‘sensitive products’ (poultry, eggs, sugar, oats, maize, groats, and honey) to guard against import surges. The final decision is to be reached in late April 2024 and farmers continue to protest and block shipments from Ukraine. A glaring lack of economic evidence on the key arguments that are framing the whole discussion, however, might prevent informed and rational decisions. We hope that summarizing and structuring these arguments and rationalizing them will help the EU institutions to strike a rational and win-win decision for further free-trade regime with Ukraine.

Monatsrückblick: Juni 2023 - Viola von Cramon

In March 2023 Inna Sovsun, Member of the Verkhovna Rada, submitted a bill for gender-neutral civil partnerships, aiming to provide same-sex couples in Ukraine legal recognition and protection.
With a letter of support 41 Members of the European Parliament, including my colleague Terry Reintke and I, reached out to the responsible authorities in Ukraine in order to help the bill to succeed.
Passing this bill would not only demonstrate Ukraine’s commitment to equality in the run-up to its EU accession negotiations but also counter the anti-liberal ideology fuelling Russia’s aggression in Ukraine.
Thank you to Inna for the initiative and every one of our colleagues who signed our letter and helped us to show our support and solidarity with the ‚LGBTIQ+ community in Ukraine.

Neue Studie: Das Engagement Chinas in der Rohstoffindustrie im Westbalkan

Hier findet ihr eine <a href="https://api.violavoncramon.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Zusammenfassung_Ana-Krstinovska-Vuk-Vuksanovic-2023-Win-Some-Loose-Some-1.pdf">Zusammenfassung</a> und die <a href="https://api.violavoncramon.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ana-Krstinovska-Vuk-Vuksanovic-2023-Win-Some-Loose-Some.pdf">Studie in voller Länge</a>

In dem Bestreben, eine globale Führungsmacht zu werden, nehmen Rohstoffe eine entscheidende Rolle in der Strategie Chinas ein.
So initiierte China bereits 2012 umfassende Kooperationen mit zental- und osteuropäischen Ländern. Alle Staaten des Westbalkans unterschrieben ein &#8222;Memoranda of Understanding&#8220; (MoU) mit China bezüglich der Einbindung in die neue Seidenstraße Seidenstraße.
Elf Jahre nach dem Memoranda hat CHOICE (China Observers in Central and Easten Europe) einen Bericht veröffentlicht, indem bleuchtet wird, welche Faktoren den Westbalkan für China so interessant machen, wie China in die Aufbereitung, die Förderung und nicht zuletzt in dem Import von Rohstoffen in Zentral- und Osteuropa eingebunden ist und welche mitunter großen Unterschiede in den Paartnerschaften zu verschiedenen Ländern im Balkan bestehen.
