According to Turkish information, three more ships with grain deliveries will leave Ukraine tomorrow. Thanks to the “intensive work” of the Grain Exports Coordination Center set up in Istanbul, the departure of three ships is planned for tomorrow, Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said this evening, according to the Anadolu Agency. He did not comment on which ports these ships will set sail from.
On the basis of an agreement brokered by Turkey, a cargo ship carrying grain left Ukrainian-controlled territory on Monday for the first time since the start of the Russian war once morest Ukraine. According to the Ukrainian embassy in Lebanon, the “Razoni”, loaded with 26,000 tons of corn, is expected in the port of Tripoli there on Sunday morning.
Agricultural exports via the Ukrainian Black Sea ports had recently been blocked for months because of the Russian war of aggression. According to EU figures, around 90 percent of grain and oilseed exports, which are particularly important for countries in Africa and the Middle East, were processed in this way before the war.
