Food producers from Poland should stop suffering from obliged sanctions against Russia [75]
Fresh news in case with spreading Polish market of apples >
Till now Poland doing re-export of Polish apples to Russia via Serbia and Belarus. Meaning, in particular case, Serbia import apples from Poland and then re-export them to Russia as Serbian apples (while Russians knows that they eat Polish apples). Now, considering truly enormous and absolutely illogical quantities of Polish apples re-exporting via Serbia (quantities that are much bigger then Serbia even have land planted with apples), things started to complicate. Putin founded himself under pressure of Russian trade ministry and you probably heard for that anecdote when minister informed Putin that Serbia violates trade agreement with Russian and selling them Polish apples to what Putin responded to minister: ``Go f*** yourself! What you want?! That I finish in madhouse?! Serbs f*** me, Poles f*** me and now you want to f*** me, too! F*** you!!``
Anyway, Serbia informed Russian ministry that part of apples exported to Russia coming from Serb Republic, not just from Serbia (while in reality, Serb Republic within Bosnia-Herzegovina started also to import apples from Poland and export to Serbia- thanks to privileged agreements between Serbia and Serb Republic and then altogether apples goes to Russia). That is how Serbia officially explained increased export of apples from Serbia to Russia. Russians pretend that don`t know for cooperation between Serb Republic and Polish apple producers.
But now, as expected, rest of Bosnia-Herzegovina (outside of Serb Republic) is excluded from the deal. They can`t export/re-export directly to Russia, neither they have privileged agreements with Serbia to do it via Serbia.
In case with Raspberry market
How I learned these days in news, prices of Polish raspberries, for internal and external market, highly depend on stance of Serbian traders that are considered to be leading regulative mechanism of the branch. It is so because EU sanctions on Russia strongly affect complete Poland`s agricultural sector, not just apple producers. In the same time, Serbian traders have privileged access to Russian, former SU and Chinese markets. So, Polish producers founded compromise solution and redirect their business with those markets via Serbia and Belarus. In raspberry market, Serbians are now leaders not only because of Serbian production that is significant but also thanks to EU sanctions on Russia and good connections with Eastern European countries that are EU members.
GREAT NEWS
Serbian President Vucic is in visit to Russia and talk to brat Putin. And you know what? Brat Putin said he is satisfied with things coming from Serbia and frankly we all know that 80% of apples coming from Serbia to Russia coming as re-export of Polish apples. You know what it means? It means that Russians eat and will eat even more. Its wonderful news for Polish apple producers. Please, share the news with sisters and brothers in Poland.
Its little handshake for Presidents Putin and Vucic but great handshake for Polish apples
