KYIV, Dec 19 – Romania helped Ukraine survive during Poland's blockade of agricultural exports, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said.

"Thank God, smart Romania appeared and the President of Romania, Klaus Iohannis, just helped me. He helped our farmers survive. And he had such difficulties, he had strikers. I think he showed the manifestation of a strong man who said: "Values first, and then there are prices," Zelenskyy said at a press conference on Tuesday.
