“We are ready to fully meet the demand of agricultural producers in Indonesia and other friendly countries for nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium fertilizers and raw materials for their production.”
Russia certainly intends to continue fulfilling in good faith all of our contractual obligations for the supply of food, fertilizer, energy resources, and other critical goods.
“In this context, we consider it vital to restore the supply chains disrupted by sanctions.”
Putin said that the imbalance of the world food markets is a direct consequence of the long-standing irresponsible macroeconomic policy of some states, uncontrolled issuance, and the accumulation of unsecured debt. The coronavirus pandemic further aggravated the situation.
