Over 15 million tons of agricultural products were exported from Ukraine during the “grain deal”, Minister of Transport and Infrastructure of Turkey Adil Karaismailoglu said.
“According to the minister, from the first of August to December 25, 585 dry cargo ships departed from Ukrainian ports. A total of 15 million 80 thousand tons of 13 varieties of agricultural products were transported through the “grain corridor,” he said,” reports Anadolu.
He noted that 44% of the products coming from Ukraine were sent to European countries, 29% – to Asian countries, 15% – to Turkey and 12% – to African countries.
