Black Sea Grain Deal Extended by Ukraine, Russia, and Turkey.

Russia has agreed to extend the Black Sea grain deal with Ukraine for another 60 days, allowing Ukraine to ship grain through the Black Sea to countries suffering from hunger. The deal was brokered by Turkey and the UN last summer and has already seen 30.3 million tonnes of grain exported from Ukraine. While Russia's exports of food and fertiliser are not subject to Western sanctions, Moscow claims restrictions on payments, logistics and insurance have become a barrier to shipments.
