Russia confirms its position that without progress in solving five systemic problems on the further extension of a grain transaction after May 18, there is no need to say, the message of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation widespread on Thursday.
The department noted that they drew attention to the next press release of the UN Secretariat on the Black Sea initiative to export Ukrainian food, in which data and facts are distorted again and, in this regard, are forced to explain the real state of affairs as with the implementation ” Black Sea initiative “, and with the Russian memorandum, the ion to normalize domestic agricultural export.
These documents, as you know, are the interconnected parts of one “package” proposed by the Secretary General of the UN Antoniu Gutherresh, follows from the message.
The reason for the Oon message for the media was non-conducting inspections within the framework of the joint coordination center (SKC) in Istanbul for the first time since the initiative launch, the press release says.
The diplomatic mission noted noted that “neither the continuing blocking of Ammonia, also prescribed in agreements, nor the absence of any progress in the implementation of the Russian Memorandum, have never caused the public reaction of the UN Secretariat”.
As for inspections, they continued to the Foreign Ministry, currently in the territorial waters of Turkey, there are 28 vessels transporting more than 1 million tons of food.
Then, they continued to the Foreign Ministry, the administration of Ukrainian ports “realized that you could also earn money on the priorities of the passage of ships, and began to take bribes from shipowners for accelerated registration. This corruption plot was widely covered even in the Ukrainian media.”

In these conditions, as well as against the background of a significant increase in supplies to rich countries (more than 40% is directed only to the EU) with a reduction in the share of needing countries (up to 2.6%), which contradicts the initiative of the initiative initially declared humanitarian goals, the Russian delegation has been performed With a proposal to include in the Ukrainian regional sheet of the court, heading with food to African countries and/or in line since January, follows from the message.
The share of humanitarian supplies through the UN World Food Program (543,928 tons) looks ridiculous against the background of the total volume of exported food of 27.7 million tons, explained in the department.
But even Kyiv is trying to use these deliveries for political purposes – for PR of its pseudo -humanitarian campaign “Grain from Ukraine” (Grain from Ukraine), follows from the message.
In addition, the Oonites love to refer to the FAO indices, claiming to reduce world food prices (though not by 20.5%, but by 18.6% since March 2022), while silent that prices, prices, Especially on wheat, they remain increased and inaccessible to many consumers, the press service noted.
