In a statement issued by his ministry, Nagy said Hungary would offer any assistance to see Ukrainian grain reach its "original destination:" consumers in Africa and the Middle East.
He noted that Hungary, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia had asked the European Commission to take immediate steps in the interest of reducing imports of Ukrainian grain that are driving down prices on local markets but complained that "Brussels isn't listening to the voice of Europe's farmers."
Nagy added, "We won't allow Hungarian farmers to be put at a disadvantage because solidarity lanes aren't functioning properly."
