According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, Russia has stopped taking part in the deal for the export of Ukrainian grains, as reported by the TASS agency.
Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, attempted to restrict the nations that might accept the shipments of the agreement in accordance with this agreement, which is sponsored by Turkey and the UN, and permitted Ukraine’s grain exports, which had ceased since the start of the war last February.
Earlier on Friday, Russia claimed that only 3% of food exports that take place within the framework of a deal in which the United Nations has mediated the transfer of grains from Ukrainian ports are sent to the world’s poorest nations, with 50% of shipments going to Western nations.
The geographic position of the countries receiving these supplies appears to not be entirely commensurate with the humanitarian objectives stated earlier, Moscow said in a statement.
“The most needed countries like Somalia, Ethiopia, Yemen, Sudan and Afghanistan received only three percent of food, most of which are from the World Food Program,” she added.
Since Russia and Ukraine have signed the UN -backed Black Sea Pills initiative, Ukraine has released millions of tons of corn, wheat, sunflower, barley, turnip seeds and soy.
The Russian president and other Russian officials bemoaned the difficulties of leaving the accord, which stoked concerns that Moscow would leave it unless its demands were met.
A supply from Ukraine, one of the biggest grain producers in the world, to international markets would lessen the severity of the negotiations, according to Western officials familiar with the grain talks.
The Russian commitment to the Ukrainian grain export agreement is strong.
