Senior politician says Russia should not renew grain deal after Crimea Bridge incident
A senior Russian politician said on Monday that Russia should not renew the Black Sea grain deal in light of an attack on the bridge linking Russia to Crimea.
A mother and father were killed and their daughter was seriously injured on Monday by blasts on the Crimean Bridge in what Russian officials called an emergency incident.
Details were unclear but some Russian politicians were quick to blame Ukraine. There was no immediate comment from the Ukrainian government.
Sergei Mironov, leader of the A Just Russia party in Russia’s parliament, said Moscow should respond by destroying Ukrainian infrastructure.
