       Putin threatens to withdraw from the Black Sea grain deal unless
       some sanctions are lifted
       --- Quote ---
       > Russian President Vladimir Putin is threatening to walk away
       from the Black Sea grain deal unless some sanctions are lifted.
       The year-long deal has guaranteed safe shipping routes and
       enabled Ukraine to export grain to the world. With the deal set
       to expire on Monday, Putin is using the pressure to demand
       western countries end blockages on some Russian exports and
       payments.

       Russia is letting the Black Sea grain deal die. Who will feel it
       most?

       >
       >
       > Now, the world has entered yet another period of uncertainty
       and although Canada and the U.S. are not among the top receivers
       of grain shipments from the Black Sea, experts are calling for
       Canadians to keep a close watch on how markets react.
       >
       > On Monday, Russia withdrew from the grain deal, under which it
       allowed the passage of ships from Ukrainian ports on the Black
       Sea carrying food grain shipments.
       >
       > Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Russia would suspend
       the Black Sea Grain Initiative until its demands to get its own
       food and fertilizer to the world are met. While Russia has
       complained that restrictions on shipping and insurance have
       hampered its agricultural exports, it has shipped record amounts
       of wheat.

       > What will the impact be?
       >
       > While the impact is expected to be felt in several developing
       countries in Africa and western Asia, United Nations Black Sea
       Initiative Joint Coordination Centre data shows that food
       shipments from the Black Sea were meant for destinations across
       the world.
       >

       Russia’s Black Sea grain deal exit is ‘de facto blockade,’
       Canada says
       --- Quote ---
       >
       >
       > A day after the Russian government withdrew from an agreement
       that allowed for the use of Ukrainian ports for grain shipments,
       Canada has called on Moscow to resume its participation in the
       Black Sea grain deal to avoid “further shocks to global food
       systems.”
       >
       > Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly and International
       Development Minister Harjit Sajjan issued a joint statement on
       Tuesday, saying Russia’s withdrawal from the agreement was a “de
       facto blockade.”
       >
       > “This reimposes a de facto blockade of Ukraine’s Black Sea
       ports, significantly affecting global food exports as well as
       security in the Black Sea.
       >
       > “Canada calls on the Russian Federation to immediately renew
       its participation in the agreement to avoid any further shocks
       to global food systems already strained by its war of aggression
       against Ukraine.”
       >
       > The Canadian government said the Black Sea deal had managed to
       prevent 100 million people worldwide from falling into extreme
       poverty.
       >
       > “(Russia’s withdrawal) also impedes the efforts of the World
       Food Programme, which sourced more than half of its total wheat
       supply from Ukraine in 2022, relieving hunger in hard-hit areas
       such as Afghanistan, the Horn of Africa and Yemen,” the
       government said.
       >
       > Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Monday evening
       that the deal must continue and could operate without Russian

       It's OK for food destruction to be Russian
       Ukraine says Russia targeting grain sites after deal exit

       > Ukraine accused Russia on Wednesday of deliberately striking
       its Black Sea grain facilities -- and destroying tonnes of food
       -- since Moscow quit an export deal meant to stave off a global
       crisis.

       UN chief urges Russia to return to Black Sea deal
       --- Quote ---
       >
       >
       > United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called on
       Russia on Monday to return to a deal allowing the safe Black Sea
       export of Ukrainian grain in line with a proposal he made to
       President Vladimir Putin.
       >
       > "With the termination of the Black Sea Initiative, the most
       vulnerable will pay the highest price," Guterres told the U.N.
       Food Systems summit in Rome on Monday. "When food prices rise,
       everybody pays for it."
       >
       > Since Russia quit the deal and began attacking Ukrainian
       food-exporting ports on the Black Sea and Danube river, global
       wheat and corn futures have risen sharply.
       >
       > "This is especially devastating for vulnerable countries
       struggling to feed their people," Guterres said.
       >
       > "I call on the Russian Federation to return to the
       implementation of the Black Sea Initiative, in line with my
       latest proposal," Guterres said. "I urge the global community to
       stand united for effective solutions in this essential effort."
       >
       > "I remain committed to facilitating the unimpeded access to
       global markets for food products and fertilizers from both
       Ukraine and the Russian Federation, and to deliver the food
       security that every person deserves," Guterres said on Monday.

       > Attacks on Ukrainian grain facilities
       >
       > Russian drones yesterday targeted grain infrastructure in
       southern Ukraine close to the border of NATO member Romania,
       according to the Ukrainian military.
       >
       > Iranian-made "Shahed" (Martyr) drones, launched from the Black
       Sea, hit the Odesa region at dawn, causing a huge fire at export
       facilities and damaging a grain elevator. A grain silo was also
       reportedly hit.
       >
       > Russian forces have repeatedly battered Ukraine's Black Sea
       and river port infrastructure in recent weeks, especially the
       city of Odesa. Vital supplies of Ukrainian grain are exported
       from the area to the rest of the world.
       >
       > These bombardments began in July after Moscow terminated a
       deal – brokered by the UN and Turkey – which allowed Ukraine to
       export 33 million tons of cereals despite the Russian invasion.
       >
       > A blockade has now been reinstated and both sides have warned
       they will attack ships heading to enemy ports.
       >
       > River ports in the Odesa region bordering Romania have become
       the main alternative exit route for Ukrainian agricultural
       products since Russia torpedoed the deal.
       >
       > But these sites have also become targets. In July, a river
       port in Reni was attacked by Russian drones, while one was hit
       on the Danube today.
