One of the first issues that Putin, who took the podium at the Eastern Economic Forum meeting, was the grain agreement. Stating that there were differences between the text of the four-way agreement signed under the mediation of Turkey and the UN Secretary-General in July, and the implementation of the agreement, Putin said, “Especially the grain corridor agreement, which was made with Turkey’s great efforts and efforts, worked very differently in practice. At the table, the UN insisted that grain was necessary to save the developing countries and especially the African continent from hunger. About 2 million tons of grain were transported from Ukrainian ports by 87 ships. Only 60 thousand tons were delivered to countries facing hunger. The lion’s share of grain went to European countries that imposed sanctions on Russia.

If necessary, Russia can prevent grain from being transported to Europe,” he said. Vasily Nebenzya, Russia’s Permanent Representative to the UN, said: “Western countries did not implement the part of the agreement that concerns Russia, by putting up various obstacles. The grain agreement was made for a period of 4 months. “In November, Russia could withdraw from the agreement completely,” he said.
