According to him, the European Union will do everything possible to make Ukrainian grain available to those who consume it with the help of solidarity corridors.
“I must condemn Russia for this decision, completely unjustified, which turns people’s hunger into a weapon”said the head of EU diplomacy.
Borrell also added that he considers the Kremlin’s accusations of restricting the export of Russian agricultural products using sanctions to be “complete nonsense.”
