"Madam President, the ban imposed by the Russian Federation on agricultural products from the EU is a very worrying development. It reflects the failures of both Russian and European diplomacy that have impacted most on the people of Ukraine but will now undoubtedly be felt by farmers and businesses across the regions. The EU’s agri-food sector is in crisis and these sanctions will mean that those already struggling to survive will no longer be able to do so. Questions that therefore need to be addressed this evening by the Commission include: what further measures will the Commission take to ensure that our small family farmers do not pay the price for political decisions they did not ask for; will the crisis reserve cover their losses; and will compensation be put in place for scenarios where there is a long-term impact on farmers beyond the sanctions period? Small farmers now need a friend in the European Commission, not a bureaucracy which fails to act while their livelihoods suffer."@en1
