Ukraine has confirmed its readiness to open a food grain hub in Ghana and is interested in joint projects for the processing of agricultural products, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga said following talks with his Ghanaian counterpart Samuel Okudzeto Ablakawa in Kyiv on Wednesday.
During the meeting, the parties discussed strengthening global food security and developing agricultural partnerships. Sybiga emphasized that Ukraine considers Ghana a key partner in West Africa and is ready to remain a reliable supplier of agricultural products to the region.
“Ukraine is ready to remain a reliable supplier of agricultural products and at the same time is interested in joint projects with added value, particularly in the field of processing and logistics,” said the head of the foreign ministry.
As reported, in July 2025, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held a telephone conversation with Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama on cooperation in the agricultural industry. The presidents agreed to expand practical cooperation, particularly in the construction of a logistics hub for food storage. Zelensky also confirmed his intention to send a Ukrainian delegation to Ghana to work on these projects.
Ghana has consistently supported Ukraine’s territorial integrity, including by voting in favor of the UN General Assembly resolution “Support for sustainable peace in Ukraine” on February 24, 2026.
