    On June 24, local time, the European Union introduced a series of new measures to impose targeted sanctions on the Belarusian national economy
    .
    Among them, one of the lifebloods of the Belarusian economy, Belarusian potash was included in the sanctions list, which also caused a sudden shock to the global potash market


    .


    According to the press announcement issued by the European Council on the same day, the new sanctions include prohibiting the export to Belarus of any communication equipment, dual-use materials and technology that may be used for "monitoring activities", and prohibiting EU investors from trading Belarusian securities and buying Belarusian securities.
    For short-term bonds, the European Investment Bank stopped issuing new loans to Belarus and restricted trade in petroleum-related products, potash and tobacco products with Belarus
    .

    In terms of EU member states, Luxembourg’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jean Asselborn, proposed sanctions on Belarus’ potash industry
    .
    He believes that Belarus produces a large amount of potash fertilizer and is the world's largest supplier of potash fertilizer


    .


    However, as a large company that produces 20% of the global potash fertilizer output, once white potassium is sanctioned, its impact on the global potash fertilizer market can be imagined
    .
    Previously, White Potassium had issued a warning to the European Union that the EU's sanctions on the company would cause an impact on the global fertilizer market and even global food security
