Bulgaria will request the suspension of the import of eggs originating from Ukraine at the meeting of the EU Agriculture and Fisheries Council in Brussels on September 23. 

At the forum, Bulgaria will be represented by the caretaker Minister of Agriculture, Georgi Takhov. 
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.
