On Sunday, Russian officials announced that there were no sugar shortages in the country. However, according to certain local media, in countries such as Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, sugar has largely disappeared from the shelves and its price has doubled.
Russia has introduced restrictions on exports of cereals, of which it is a major supplier, to four former Soviet states to secure domestic supplies and avoid rising prices.
