Context:

Sugar is a major item in Ukraine’s agricultural exports worldwide and to the EU market while the European Union is the world’s leading producer of beet sugar, with around 50% of the total amount. In the EU, sugar is an agricultural product that historically has been considered as ‘sensitive’ in the European agricultural sector, providing its European producers with income support and emergency market stabilization measures under the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) while the sugar sector has been extensively regulated under the EU Common Market organization (CMO) framework.

This partly may explain the reason why the European Commission included sugar into the list of products which were made subject to specific safeguard measures under the EU Autonomous Trade Measures (ATMs) for Ukraine, a package of temporary trade liberalization measures designed to support Ukraine’s economy at the time of war.

Our discussion will focus on the underlying rationale of the EU decision on the latest extension of the ATMs regime, its potential effects on the sugar sector and sugar consumption in Ukraine and the EU and how it may affect the EU-Ukraine trade in sugar in the medium to long-term, in the context of the country’s preparations to join the EU.
