U.S. envoy John Coale is pushing to reopen Lithuanian ports to Belarusian potash exports, according to multiple U.S. and European officials. U.S. officials say the initiative is Coale acting independently rather than an agreed government policy, and Lithuania has no plans to change its position.
Belarus was once a leading potash supplier and sanctions currently restrict its exports, so any reopening of transit routes would add potential supply and could ease potash prices, which are a key fertilizer input for feed crops.
