Ukraine and Croatia have reached an
agreement to use Croatian ports for the transit and exports of Ukrainian
grain, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said in a message on the
ministry’s website on July 31.
“We have agreed on the possibility of using Croatian ports on the Danube and the Adriatic Sea for transporting Ukrainian grain,” said Kuleba.
“We will now work on figuring out the most efficient routes to these ports and fully utilize this opportunity.”
Kuleba added that every contribution to the unblocking of grain exports is a real and effective contribution to global food security. He also thanked Croatia for its constructive assistance.
Kuleba and his Croatian counterpart, Gordan Grlic Radman, also discussed military aid Zagreb could provide Kyiv with, with "specific agreements that will be implemented soon," according to the Ukrainian official.
The ministers also discussed military aid from Zagreb to Kyiv. Kuleba revealed that there are "specific agreements that will be implemented soon."
On July 17, Russia has left the Black Sea Grain Initiative (BSGI), meaning that grain exports from Odesa and nearby ports could no longer be guaranteed, placing numerous countries across the glove at risk of food shortages and rising prices.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
