As a result of the actions of the terrorist state, which is deliberately delaying the full implementation of the "grain initiative", Ukrainian ports have been operating at only 25-30% of their capacity in recent days.


This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Infrastructure on Facebook.

Today, the bulk carrier PANGEO, chartered by the World Food Program (WFP) of the United Nations, left the port of Chornomorsk. It has 40,000 tons of wheat for Yemen on board.

Also, today, October 23, as part of the implementation of the "Grain Initiative", 6 ships with 124.3 thousand tons of agricultural products for the countries of Asia and Europe left the ports of Odessa, Chornomorsk and the Yuzhny port.

As previously reported, Russia is deliberately delaying the full implementation of the Grain Initiative. In this connection, the ports have been operating at only 25-30% of their capacity in recent days.

In general, since August 1, 380 ships have exported 8.5 million tons of agricultural products to the countries of Africa, Asia, and Europe from the ports of Odessa region.
