The number of cargo ships passing through the Bosporus carrying Ukrainian agricultural products is critically low, Ukraine says
Kyiv said on Monday a U.N.-brokered initiative allowing the safe Black Sea export of Ukrainian grain was in danger of “shutdown” after Russia blocked inspections of participating ships in Turkish waters., but access to three of them was cleared last July under a deal between Moscow and Kyiv that was brokered by the United Nations and Turkey.
“For the second time in 9 months of operation of the Grain Initiative, an inspection plan has not been drawn up, and not a single vessel has been inspected,” Ukraine’s restoration ministry said on Facebook under the headline “Grain initiative under threat of shutdown.” Russia did not respond to Brink’s or the ministry’s comments, but the Kremlin said prospects for a renewal of the grain deal were “not so bright”.
Ukraine’s restoration ministry said Russian representatives in a Joint Coordination Center were operating an “unacceptable” plan for inspecting vessels which contradicted the terms of the initiative.
