Zelenskyy: the President of Turkey and the UN Secretary General should talk about the Grain Agreement with russian federation


President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he does not see russia’s interest in extending the Grain Agreement.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke at a joint press conference of the participants of the Summit of Northern Europe and Ukraine in Helsinki. As Ukrinform notes, Zelenskyy answered questions about the impact on the Grain Agreement of Russia’s statements about an alleged Ukrainian attack on the Kremlin.

“I don’t see russia’s interest in continuing the Grain Agreement. But we are not looking for russia’s interest, we are looking for the fulfillment of the agreement with our partners. Regarding the grain initiative, we have clear agreements with the UN Secretary General and the President of Turkey. They, for their part, should talk to the russian side and continue the operation of this grain corridor, which the countries of the world need so much,” the President noted.
