# Viacheslav Petryshche urged port terminals to strike — Latifundist.com

> Allseeds CEO Viacheslav Petryshche suggested that Ukrainian port terminals unite in a general strike that would halt all grain exports for several days. The protest targets the Prosecutor General's Office and the State Fiscal Service, which have blocked operations at sea terminals, including a transshipment terminal in Chernomorsk.

## Why it matters

A multi-day halt to Ukrainian grain exports would tighten Black Sea wheat and corn supplies and support world feed grain prices. The proposal is only a suggestion so far, and the threat alone has limited immediate price impact.
