Ukraine supported Pakistan with a delivery of almost 2,000 tonnes of wheat

Within the framework of the humanitarian initiative Food from Ukraine (an expansion of the Grain from Ukraine program), Ukraine delivered 1,850 tonnes of wheat to Pakistan, the Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture reported.

The donors of this delivery, implemented jointly with the UN World Food Programme (WFP), were Spain and the Czech Republic.

“The transferred grain is already helping affected communities in Pakistan, and further deliveries will strengthen the country’s preparedness for the challenges of the monsoon season and form a reserve for rapid response,” said Deputy Minister of Economy, Environment and Agriculture Denys Bashlyk.

The Grain from Ukraine humanitarian initiative was launched by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in 2022, and a new stage—Food from Ukraine—began in 2025. In total, over the course of the programs’ operation, more than 324,000 tonnes of agricultural products (wheat, flour, corn, peas, oil) have been sent to 19 countries in Africa and Asia. More than $380 million in donor funds has been raised to implement the initiatives.
