After the termination of secure trade through the corridor, Ukraine put alternative grain routes on the agenda. However, taking into account both security and cost, none of the options can replace the Black Sea corridor. Rising prices have a negative impact on poor countries, most of which are in Africa," the publication says.
As reported, on August 2, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan discussed the ʼgrain dealʼ with Russian President Vladimir Putin and agreed on his visit to Turkey. Later, President Erdoğan expressed hope that the visit would take place in August.
