Isn't the Russian blockade of Ukrainian exports of foodstuffs of a much higher impact? Are there even sanctions on "sanctions on fuel and petroleum derived fertilizers"? I was under the impression that nothing food related was sanctioned.

Russia is not really blocking exports. Each side accuses the other of being responsible. Ukraine put mines around deep water ports but say they can’t be removed because Russia would then use its fleet.

As with every war, nothing is as simple as it seems in Ukraine.
