The Prime Minister also emphasized Ukraine's loyalty to its obligations as a reliable gas exporter.

'In May, you had the opportunity to visit the ports of Odesa and get familiarized with the ships with grain that were due for shipment. Today, thanks to joint efforts, these vessels are already delivering grain to the countries of Asia, Africa and Europe,' Shmyhal noted and added that the operation of 'grain corridors' should be continued to maintain food security in the world.
