(Reuters) – Ukraine has around $10 billion worth of grain available for sale in the wake of a deal signed with Russia to unblock supplies and will also have a chance to sell the current harvest, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Friday.
“This is another demonstration that Ukraine can withstand the war,” he said in a late-night address. Around 20 million tonnes of last year’s harvest will be exported after the conclusion of what he called an important deal, Zelenskiy added.
