Ukrainians farmers, supporters of an agrarian association, demonstrate outside of the Parliament in Kiev on October 31, 2019, as they protest against government plans to lift the existing ban on the sale of farmland, a step long awaited by investors but to which many Ukrainians are opposed fearing a foreign land grab. - Ukraine's new government would allow the sale of farmland from next year to boost investment, as critics warned this could lead to a foreign land grab.
