Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has said work is under way with the UN to reach an agreement on a corridor for Ukrainian exports from the Black Sea, but issues between Moscow and Kiev remain.
Cavusoglu said Lavrov — accompanied by a military delegation — would arrive in Türkiye on June 8 "for talks on the issue of opening a security corridor that also includes (shipping) of wheat in the Black Sea".
Russia's offensive in Ukraine and Western sanctions have disrupted supplies of wheat and other commodities from the two countries that produce 30 percent of the global wheat supply, fuelling concerns about the risk of shortages and hunger around the world.
In a phone call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday(May 30th), Russia's Vladimir Putin said that Russia was ready to facilitate the unhindered export of grain from Ukrainian ports in coordination with Türkiye.
