Western countries cheated on poor nations with Ukraine grain deal – Putin
Developing countries receive the minimum from the exported grain, the Russian leader has said
According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Western governments lied when they asserted that Ukraine required access to sea transportation to reduce the risk of starvation and rising food prices in developing nations.
According to Putin, who spoke on Wednesday at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia, the majority of the cargoes that left Ukraine as a result of an agreement with Russia mediated by Turkey and the UN went to the EU. He continued by saying that the agreement’s provisions should probably be altered.
Putin made the comments Regarding the agreement permitting civilian ships to arrive at and depart from Ukrainian Black Sea ports with grain supplies, . The plan was implemented in late July, and Turkey is home to a center that manages the delivery.
The Russian leader pointed out that the agreement was promoted as a mechanism to stop the rise in global prices and aid the poorest countries. He claimed that in reality, the majority of the grain exported from Ukraine went to developed EU countries.
With a disposition like this, issues with food accessibility will just deteriorate, Putin cautioned.
On August 30, the UN Food Program revealed that it had sent a second shipment with food help from Ukraine. The boat was conveying 37,000 metric lots of wheat grain to Yemen. Putin focused on that only two boats out of in excess of 80 that left Ukraine were really going on hunger help missions.
Recently, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov blamed Western countries for neglecting to eliminate auxiliary limitations on the product of food and manures from Russia after the Ukraine bargain was reached. The UN, which co-consented to the arrangement with Turkey, promised to utilize its clout to have the limitations lifted.
