Ukraine calls on the EU to join the "grain corridor"

At an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers, Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba called on the latter to join the "grain corridor" that Kyiv supports without Russia's participation.

Kuleba said this at the final press conference, a correspondent of Yevropeiska Pravda reports.

The minister reminded that after Russia's withdrawal from the Black Sea Grain Initiative, Ukraine created an alternative route that runs from Ukrainian Black Sea ports and passes through the territorial waters of NATO member states.

He added that the successful functioning of the corridor is evidence that Ukraine can ensure grain exports without Russian guarantees.

"We can manage without them, just as we did before the full-scale invasion," Kuleba emphasized.
