- Kuwaiti deputy FM received UN Coordinator for the Black Sea Grain Initiative
KUWAIT: Mansour Alotaibi, Kuwait’s deputy foreign minister, met on Sunday with Abdullah Dashti, UN Coordinator for the Black Sea Grain Initiative, Kuwait News Agency reported.
During the meeting, the two discussed issues relating to global food security.
The UN and Turkey brokered the Black Sea Grain Initiative between Moscow and Kyiv last July to help tackle a global food crisis aggravated by Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, a leading global grain exporter.
Ukraine would be ready to continue exporting grain across the Black Sea as part of a “plan B” without Russian backing if Moscow pulls the plug on the current grain export deal and it collapses, Ukraine’s farm minister said on Friday.
