Russia: Speaking alongside Çavuşoğlu following talks between the two, Lavrov said Russia was willing to open corridors to allow grain exports from Ukraine, but that these efforts relied on the Ukrainian side to remove mines from their ports.
Russia claims that Ukraine is responsible for mining the Black Sea, which the Ukrainians deny, saying that Russia is responsible.
Lavrov said a move by the United Nations to restore Ukrainian grain exports “could be beneficial, but this is a symbolic step”. He said: To solve this problem, Ukraine should de-mine their ports, only after that can ships travel in the region.
The delivery of grains and cereals from Russia, western countries look at this as a catastrophe, but the share of Ukrainian grain in the international market is just one percent, so the food security crisis isn’t actually stemming from this war, we cannot say this situation will cause a food crisis.
German estimates put Ukraine’s wheat production at 11.5% of the global market.“There is a real global food crisis,” said ÇavuÅŸoÄŸlu, who also pointed to a crisis in the global fertiliser trade.

Since Russia invaded Ukraine in late February, Turkish maritime and military experts have deactivated at least three mines that drifted down from the Black Sea into the Bosphorus strait, disrupting global shipping traffic. Floating mines have also been detected and defused off the coast of Romania, which borders the Black Sea.
