To avert a chemical product shortage, US officials lifted restrictions on Russian fertilizers. According to Kommersant, fertilizers have been added to the list of basic items.
The release relates to a new general license issued by the US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on March 24. According to the paper, mineral fertilizers, agricultural items, medications, and medical products are all on the list of important products.
It is noted that the issued license allows to carry out any trading operations with goods from the list.
Presumably, the United States decided to protect itself from a shortage of fertilizers due to a deficit that has began in the world due to the backdrop of a disruption in supplies from Russia.
