The corresponding resolution was signed by Prime Minister Alexander Turchin.

Thus, the document provides for the inclusion in the list of wheat flour, pasta and chicken eggs. The list of countries is also supplemented by the Republic of Sierra Leone.

The amount of compensation for export to the countries of the “far arc” for pasta, flour and eggs is set at 30%.

Recall that in accordance with the resolution of the Council of Ministers of August 3, 2026 No. 390, a pilot project is being implemented in the country to partially compensate producers of products in 2027 for transport and logistics costs when exporting food products in the second half of 2026 to the countries of the “far arc” in accordance with the lists of such products and foreign countries.

Compensation will be provided under a number of conditions, including the positive dynamics of the increase in physical volumes of exports to a foreign country by 10%. According to the results of the pilot project, the government will decide whether it is advisable to continue using this mechanism to support exporters.
