The Russian Federation continues to exploit the captured Ukrainian ports of Mariupol and Berdyansk for the illegal export of Ukrainian grain and metal.
Russia does not stop using the captured Ukrainian ports of Mariupol and Berdyansk for the illegal export of Ukrainian grain and metal. This was announced on the air of the telethon by the spokesman for the Ukrainian Navy, Dmitry Pletenchuk.
The occupiers even carried out work to strengthen the capacities of these ports in order to increase their ability to carry out illegal exports.
“From there they illegally export Ukrainian grain and metal, reloading the goods onto foreign vessels through their official ports,” Pletenchuk noted.
Also, according to him, Russia actively uses the ports of the temporarily occupied Crimea for illegal trade in Ukrainian resources.
“Sometimes vessels enter there, but Ukraine, as well as the Navy, do everything possible to bring the guilty to justice,” the spokesman for the Ukrainian Navy added.
The day before, USM wrote that the Ukrainian Navy is ready to give an adequate response to Russia’s violation of the ceasefire at sea.
