LULEBURGAZ, TURKEY - MARCH 22: An employee carries a bag of flour in a storage of a bakery on March 23, 2022 in Istanbul, Turkey. In 2021 Turkey's wheat imports from Ukraine and Russia reached record levels. The Russian invasion of Ukraine is causing shortages of wheat worldwide and bread prices are rising in many countries. Russia is the world's number-one wheat exporter and largest producer, after China and India, but international sanctions are preventing sales and disrupting the supply chain. Ukraine is among the top five wheat exporters worldwide but war with Russia is preventing the wheat from leaving the country via its Black Sea ports. (Photo by Burak Kara/Getty Images)
