At the meeting, EU agriculture ministers will discuss the situation on agricultural markets following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

At the insistence of the Poultry Breeders' Association, Bulgaria will request a ban on the import of Ukrainian eggs, Minister Takhov said.

"Without a decision of the European Commission, we cannot do anything. The first step we took is that we first included them among goods with a higher duty, and now we are taking another step, I will demand their absolute ban," commented the minister.
