The prime ministers of Ukraine and Russia have discussed the creation of a grain pool.
Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov said this in Sochi on Friday after a meeting with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, the government portal reported.
"We returned to the issue of creating a grain pool," Azarov said.
As reported, the formation by Ukraine, Russia and Kazakhstan of a Black Sea pool of grain exporters for a coordinated policy on the world market was one of the major issues raised at the first World Grain Forum in St. Petersburg in June 2009, but this idea was not realized.
