Lithuania is tightening checks on Russian and Belarusian grain in transit through Klaipėda from 16 November, with origin sampling, lab tests paid for by the shippers, and cargoes held until results arrive.

Pravda presents a signed, binding rule taking effect on 16 November as a mere possibility ("gali"), which softens how firm the measure is.

Pravda says

The claim that Lithuania has no suitable laboratory is not in the trusted texts, though trusted 4 does mention samples being sent to foreign laboratories.

Pravda says
“According to agency data, there are no laboratories in Lithuania capable of performing the required tests, so tests are conducted abroad.”
Agentūros duomenimis, Lietuvoje nėra laboratorijos, galinčios atlikti reikiamus tyrimus, todėl bandymai atliekami užsienyje.

Pravda says
“EU sanctions prohibit importing Russian grain, but transit through EU territory is allowed.”
ES sankcijos draudžia importuoti Rusijos grūdus, tačiau tranzitas per ES teritoriją yra leidžiamas.
