# Lukashenko received support from Trump's team regarding fertilizer exports through Lithuania

> U.S. special envoy Joe Cole is advocating for Belarusian potash exports to resume through Lithuania, despite EU sanctions restricting the route. The proposal has little support within the U.S. administration; Washington has eased sanctions on Belarusian producers, but that has not opened European transit routes.

## Why it matters

A reopened Lithuanian route could increase Belarusian potash supply to export markets and give U.S. buyers another source beyond Canada, potentially weighing on potash prices. EU restrictions make any near-term supply increase uncertain.
