“Grain Deal”: Russia has blocked registration and inspections of the incoming fleet
The Russian Federation has once again effectively stopped the Grain Initiative by refusing to register vessels for entry and conduct inspections. This approach completely contradicts the terms of the current Agreement. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine.
Russia’s destructive policy makes it impossible to draw up an inspection plan in accordance with the JCC procedures, which provide for daily approval by all parties of the inspection plan for both outbound and inbound. As of today, 90 vessels are awaiting inspection in Turkey’s territorial waters, of which 62 are ships undergoing loading. Inspections of both the inbound and outbound fleet have been suspended. Exports of Ukrainian agricultural products via the grain corridor in April did not reach 3 million tons.
“Ukraine categorically rejects Russia’s attempts to stop the registration and inspection of the incoming fleet, which should take place in view of the Initiative. We are waiting for the position of our partners, the UN and Turkey,” the ministry said.
