KIEV, May 15 – President Viktor Yushchenko is alarmed with the increase in administrative interference in the agricultural sector and urged the government to lift restrictions on grain and sunflower seed oil exports.

"With the return to administrative regulation on the sunflower seed oil and grain markets, the government is trying to settle the problem of inflation,” Yushchenko said, cited by the press service. “But there are serious doubts about the effectiveness of these measures."
