Some leaders in Africa, Asia and the Middle East suggested that our country stop resisting, so that the Russian invaders would unblock the ports and release grain from the country. Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba spoke about this in his article for Foreign Affairs.

" Some of them started the conversation with statements of support before making a sharp turn, politely suggesting that we just stop resisting,"

The minister noted that there are countries that are ready to sacrifice the independence of Ukraine in order to get grain. But he explained that if our state loses, the humanitarian crisis in the world will only multiply..

“Therefore, we do not need to offer peace initiatives with unacceptable conditions, but instead help Ukraine win. This means not only providing our country with heavy weapons, but also maintaining and strengthening sanctions against Russia,"

Head of the Presidential Office Andriy Yermak explained how the world can avoid a food crisis. There are three steps for this: military convoys for ships with grain, strengthening anti-Russian sanctions, supplying Ukraine with the necessary weapons.

Recall that the Russian Federation is blocking the export of grain from Ukrainian ports and, meanwhile, is stealing elevators in the occupied territories..

Under pressure from the world community to unblock sea routes from our country, it became known that Ankara and Moscow reached a preliminary agreement on the supply of Ukrainian agricultural products through the Black Sea. At the same time, these states did not coordinate issues with Kyiv, and Turkey itself is one of the countries that buy grain stolen by Russians in Ukraine.
