Preliminary, Dujarric commented that the meeting aims to analyze the implementation of the agreement signed in July in Istanbul, which aims to ensure Ukrainian grain exports. For compliance, “Turkey is a key element”remarked the spokesman.
Guterres will visit the Joint Coordination Center in Turkey
The possibility of Ukraine continuing to export food to the rest of the world demands the attention of much of the planet, considering the sharp rise in prices generated by the war, due to complications in international trade. This caused more inflation in emerging economies, such as Argentina, which saw strong increases in flour and its derivatives.
For now, in the midst of the tension, 21 boats loaded with corn and wheat have already been able to leave Odessa. In turn, this Tuesday the first ship of the World Food Program (WFP) to export cereals departed from Ukraine, after an agreement between Ukraine and Russia, which was brokered by Turkey and the UN.
Guterres’ tour will end on Saturday, in Istanbul, where he will visit the Joint Coordination Center (CCC), which is in charge of supervising the pact to finalize exports. Indeed, for the United Nations, the agreement is essential to reduce the collateral damage of the war, which worsened global food security.
“The need for a political solution” to the Russian invasion
“A series of issues will be raised in general, such as the need for a political solution to the conflict,” added the UN representative, alluding to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. “I have no doubt that the issue of the nuclear power plant (in Zaporizhia) and others will also be discussed,” he added.
