Ukraine sends sunflower oil for the first time as part of the humanitarian initiative “Grain from Ukraine”

For the first time, Ukraine sends sunflower oil as part of the President’s humanitarian food initiative Grain from Ukraine. 2453.26 tons of oil are intended for 5 African countries – the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mozambique, Djibouti, Mauritania, and Palestine.

The humanitarian cargo is being shipped by the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine in cooperation with the World Food Program (WFP).

According to Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy Markiyan Dmytrasevych, this year Ukraine has expanded the range of humanitarian cargo.

“We are fulfilling the mission of our country, ensuring food security in the world. And we are expanding humanitarian goods, as announced by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during the second Grain from Ukraine summit. We supply not only grain, but also corn, peas, and now sunflower oil…,” Markiyan Dmytrasevych said.
