Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has called for continuing the implementation of the Istanbul agreement on the shipment of grain and fertilizers from Black Sea ports.
“There is yet another question regarding grains and fertilizers. [It is necessary] to strengthen the Istanbul agreement and to continue its fulfillment so that Russian fertilizers reach the poorest countries via Turkey,” Erdoğan said at a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The UN, Russia, Turkey and Ukraine signed a document in Istanbul on July 22 to open a grain corridor from three Ukrainian ports – Chornomorsk, Odesa and Pivdenny.
