Ukraine will continue preparations for the export of grain, despite the shelling of the port of Odesa – Kubrakov
Ukraine will continue preparations for launching the export of agricultural products through the Black Sea, despite the shelling of the Odesa sea trade port. This was announced by the Minister of Infrastructure of Ukraine Oleksandr Kubrakov.
– Railroad workers, road workers and port workers, like the whole country, work in conditions of military aggression every day. And none of us plans to stop, because this is exactly what the occupier wants, to destroy the infrastructure, destroy the economy, thereby weakening the army, – he is convinced.
Kubrakov noted that the whole world is watching this situation. The UN, allies and partners talk about the Istanbul initiative as a solution that will not only save Ukraine’s economy, but also millions of people from hunger.
– As always, we trust the Navy, Armed Forces and all the defense forces, which are ready to repel the invaders. Yesterday, no one signed the agreement on the surrender of the Russian Federation, the war did not end, as someone decided, – the minister emphasized.
According to him, the Ukrainian railway continues to move, and truckers deliver the necessary products, medicines and weapons to the positions. Ukraine will not back down from its goal of unblocking sea ports, Kubrakov emphasized.
In the morning, Russia launched missile strikes on the Odesa seaport, where Ukrainian grain was stored. The first explosions in Odesa rang out around 11:10 a.m., and later it became known that enemy rockets had hit the city.
