Black Sea Grain Deal Served Only to Enrich Western Corporations: Russian MFA's Spox
Russia will not revive the deal that worked exclusively in the interests of Westerners under the guise of helping worse‑off nations, Maria Zakharova said at a briefing.
"They [Westerners] bought cheap agricultural products from Kiev, supplied their processing industries with raw materials, and then resold them at a higher price, including to the same needy Africans they supposedly cared about," she added.
Russia had rigorously fulfilled its obligations under the grain deal, Zakharova underlined.
ℹ The deal expired in July 2023 after Russia argued its provisions had not been fulfilled and Western countries were not honoring their commitments.
