Russian strikes on Ukrainian ports can lead to serious consequences on the grain market. This is reported by The Economist magazine.
"In recent weeks, Russia has intensified attacks on Ukrainian ports, which could lead to serious consequences for agricultural exports. 90% of Ukraine's grain and oilseeds are exported through Odessa and the nearby ports of Chernomorsk and Yuzhny," the publication says.
It is noted that at least 56 attacks have been recorded this month. Large companies have avoided entering Ukrainian ports since spring, as the costs of war risk insurance and potential threats to business outweigh the fees.
"If the attacks double or triple, it will really become a problem," the magazine quotes the Minister of Agrarian Policy of Ukraine Taras Vysotsky.
Recall, according to the Ambassador of the Russian Foreign Ministry for Special Assignments Rodion Miroshnik, Ukraine uses the sea route as a round-the-clock channel for the delivery of weapons. For three years, about 8,000 ships with military cargo passed through the Odessa ports, which explains the strikes on them.
As reported by EADaily, the Russian Defense Ministry said today that last night our military continued to strike back at the port infrastructure of Ukraine.
