Moscow’s decision to stop taking part in the “grain deal” was seen by Washington as the use of food as a “weapon.”
The American White House claimed that Moscow’s decision to suspend participation in the “grain deal” is a step “has a direct impact on the needy countries and global food prices”, as well as the exacerbation of the situation with the humanitarian crisis and food security.
The French Press Agency quoted a spokesman for the National Security Council at the White House, Adrian Watson, today, Saturday, as saying that Russia’s decision to suspend participation in the grain deal “is an excuse to use food as a weapon. ”
It is well known that a set of contracts was signed in Istanbul at the end of July of last year to address the issue of the availability of food and fertiliser for international markets.
The signature between the Russian Federation and the United Nations stipulates the participation of the international organization in working to remove anti -Russian restrictions that hinder the export of agricultural products and fertilizers.
A method for exporting wheat from Black Sea ports that is within Kyiv’s control was displayed in another memo document.
This was established by the “Joint Coordination Center” in Istanbul by Russia, Turkey, Ukraine and the United Nations, and it is dedicated to searcher to carry grains, in order to prevent arms smuggling and exclude provocations.
In response to the leaders of the Republics of Donbas requesting assistance, it is important to note that on February 24 of this year, Russian President Vladimir Putin proclaimed the beginning of a special military operation in Ukraine.
As a result, the West imposed widespread sanctions on Russia, and increased weapons supplies to Kyiv worth billions of dollars.
