SOCHI, Russia (Reuters) - Russia's Deputy Agriculture Minister, Ilya Shestakov, said he was surprised by a sudden statement by Economy Minister Andrei Belousov that Russia could limit grain exports, and said neither a ban nor protective tariffs were under discussion.
"To be honest Andrei Removich (Belousov's) statement was a surprise for me too," Shestakov told reporters in the Black Sea resort town of Sochi at an economic forum.
"We have not even discussed limiting exports and it sounded very strange," he added. "In all the meetings that have happened, the issue of a ban has never been raised and the Economy Ministry has not promoted that idea this year."
