Ukraine has organized two routes via Poland and Romania to export grain and avert a global food crisis, despite the fact that various problems have slowed down the supply chain, the deputy foreign minister said on Sunday.
Dimitro Senik said global food security is at risk because Russia's invasion of Ukraine has blocked Kiev's grain exports from the Black Sea, causing widespread shortages as well as rising prices.
Ukraine is the fourth largest grain exporting country in the world and has announced that there are about 30 million tons of grain stored in areas under Ukrainian control.
Efforts are being made to export these quantities by road, river and rail.
Ukraine is in talks with Baltic countries to organize a third food export corridor, Senik said.
