KYIV, Nov. 11 - President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday that Parliament would amend the law to stipulate that the issue of whether foreigners will be allowed to buy farmland would be put to a referendum, Reuters reported.

Zelenskiy has pledged to lift a longstanding ban on the sale of farmland, a move that supporters say will unlock enormous opportunities for investment in the agriculture sector of one of the world’s largest grain exporters.
