# Poland seeks to impose tariffs on Russian and Belarusian fertilizers

Publication Date: 22.11.2024, 12:00

The announcement was made by Jakub Jaworowski, Poland’s head of the Ministry of State Assets.

According to the statement made by the head of Poland’s Ministry of State Assets Jakub Jaworowski, the country is pushing for the European Union to impose protective tariffs of 30%- 40% on fertilizer imports from Russia and Belarus.

Jaworowski argues that importing fertilizers, which are produced using cheap gas from Belarus and Russia, undermines the European chemical sector and specifically harms Poland’s fertilizer producer, Grupa Azoty. This move is seen as an attempt to shield local producers from lower-cost competition.
