Ankara will act as a mediator in negotiations on the creation of a “grain corridor” from Ukrainian ports.
Turkish Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Vakhit Kirishchi said Ankara had agreed with Kyiv to buy Ukrainian grain 25% cheaper, but there was a question of its safe transportation. This was reported on June 7 by the Yeni Safak newspaper.
“There is an agreement with Ukraine to reduce the price of grain by 25%. However, they face a problem on the issue of safe export of products and want Turkey to act as an arbiter in this process. Both are confident. Russia and Ukraine with us, “Kirishchi stressed.
He recalled that two important meetings were held in Turkey this week on the creation of a “grain corridor” from Ukraine.
Representatives of Ukraine, the UN and the Russian Federation will arrive in Istanbul.
Recall that President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine trusts Turkey in the matter of negotiating the unblocking of ports.
Earlier, the media reported that Ukraine, Russia and Turkey have agreed on a scheme for the export of grain from the port of Odessa. The “road map” is due to be approved on June 8-9 in Istanbul.
