An agreement has been reached for North Macedonia to import wheat from Bulgaria, Macedonian Agriculture Minister Ljupcho Nikolovski announced on Facebook. "My colleague, the Bulgarian Minister of Agriculture Ivan Ivanov, and I agreed to provide with additional quantities of wheat to us from Bulgaria. In this way, we are building true good-neighbourliness with our neighbors, and united we will more easily overcome the current crisis," Nikolovski wrote.

The two ministers agreed in Berlin during a session on agricultural policy within the Berlin Process for the Western Balkans. Under the conditions of an expected grain crisis due to Russia's war in Ukraine, in March North Macedonia agreed to import wheat from Serbia as well, BTA explains.
