The UN crisis coordinator noted that the war with Russia and the blockade of Odessa's ports had created unprecedented food challenges for the world community, which continue to grow and could cause famine in many countries worldwide. In turn, the Head of the Odessa Regional State Administration stressed that one of the points and the main guarantee of unblocking ports and resumption of navigation is not to attack ships leaving the ports of the Odessa region.

“Navigation in the Black Sea will resume only when Ukraine wins this war and the water area is cleared, thereby guaranteeing the safe movement of ships. Or there will be a destruction of the Russian Black Sea Fleet,” Maxim Marchenko added.
