Bangladesh's cabinet committee approved the purchase of 30,000 tonnes of muriate of potash from Russia's state-linked Prodintorg at a cost of Tk150.21 crore. The purchase proceeds despite US and EU sanctions, with payment arrangements such as a currency swap under consideration.
The volume is small relative to global potash trade, so the price impact is limited, though it shows buyers continuing to source from Russia under sanctions.
