# Efforts to Open Lithuanian Ports to Belarusian Potash Are Initiative of Trump’s Belarus Envoy Cole, Not the White House

> U.S. and European officials said efforts to reopen Lithuanian ports to Belarusian potash exports were initiated by U.S. special envoy John Coale and do not represent a change in U.S. policy. Officials said the broader U.S. administration and the EU have not adopted the proposal, and Lithuania’s position remains unchanged.

## Why it matters

If Belarusian exports were allowed through Lithuanian ports, additional supply could reach global buyers and weigh on potash prices. Officials’ statements that policy remains unchanged mean that potential supply has not yet been restored.
