The Foreign Ministry in Bucharest used diplomatic channels to convey a message to Kyiv that Romania allows Ukrainian ships loaded with cereals to use the Danube channels of Bastroe and Chilia. According to the Foreign Ministry in Bucharest, Romania tries to muster consistent international support to create a transit corridor, including on the sea, for the transport of Ukrainian cereals to third countries against the backdrop of the growing food crisis triggered by the Russian aggression. On Wednesday the city of Istanbul in Turkey held talks on ways of unblocking Ukraine’s grain exports. The conference brought together delegations from Ukraine, Russia, Turkey and the UNO. Ukrainian vessels are carrying grain to the Romanian port of Constanta to be further shipped to various destinations in Europe, Africa or the Arab world.
