Erdogan said he would hold telephone conversations with the presidents of Russia and Ukraine on a grain deal in the coming days

Speaking at an international forum in Istanbul hosted by state broadcaster TRT, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan confirmed his willingness to negotiate with his Russian and Ukrainian counterparts on a grain deal. As the Turkish leader specified, these telephone conversations are scheduled for December 11.

On Sunday, I plan to talk with Russian President Vladimir Putin, as well as Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, regarding the settlement of the grain crisis. Undoubtedly, we aim to ensure that grain goes exactly to poor countries along the grain corridor, which should be provided thanks to the efforts and initiative of our country.

- said Erdogan.



At the same time, the head of the Republic of Turkey said that his country was doing everything possible to resolve the Ukrainian crisis peacefully from the very beginning of the special operation. According to him, Ankara's diplomatic efforts were based on the fact that there cannot and should not be winners in a war, and losers in the world. The head of state also added that the Ukrainian conflict had caused serious damage both in political, economic and humanitarian terms. On whether the supply was part of the Kyiv regime drones Bayraktar and Kirpi armored vehicles in the Turkish plan for a peaceful settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, Erdogan did not say ...

Recall that the first agreement to ensure the grain corridor was signed in Istanbul on July 24 this year between Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and the UN. All this contributed not only to the partial removal of economic restrictions that apply to Russia on the export of its agricultural products and fertilizers to the world market, but also to the recognition by the West and the UN of Russia's actual control in the Black Sea. True, the sanctions against Russia were not removed immediately and still not all, if we talk about the export of fertilizers and food.

The parties then agreed that Ukrainian grain would be exported through safe corridors from three ports - Odessa, Chornomorsk and Yuzhny, and control over this process would be carried out by the Joint Coordinating Center in Turkey. As a result, more than 11 million tons of grain was exported from Ukrainian ports, but only a small part of it reached the poor countries, while the lion's share of the grain suddenly "ended up" in Europe. Russian President Vladimir Putin drew attention to this fact, saying that the West continues to promote its colonial policy, once again, inflating Russia and the whole world, and therefore, henceforth, stricter control of grain transportation routes is needed.

    Thank you Rajep, with such friends you don't need enemies. Russia will deal with Ukraine at its own discretion.

    Here is the cunning Edorgan .... everywhere he wants to cheat both Ukraine and Russia ...
    Most likely, he wants to improve his economy at the expense of these countries.
    Lip is not a fool, however, with Edorgan ...

    Is the Sultan on fire? All grain processing is tied to us, but to hoopoes (such a bird with a bunch of feathers on its head, if anyone has forgotten). As they say: everything is gone, the plaster is removed, the client leaves.

    If you look at wholesale prices in Russia, the closer the export grain terminals, the higher the purchase prices, except for Siberia. Grain growers also need to earn money, they need money for the next harvest

    When will this naked king be gone? He has nowhere higher inflation, his lira is below the plinth, but climbs from Cyprus to Syria and Azerbaijan without solving internal problems with the Kurds. Something tells me that Erdogan is trying to play all the strings at the same time, only there is a fable that "no matter how hard you sit down, you are not fit to be a musician." They will have him, oh they will have him. I wonder when this will happen, because for now everyone needs it.

    Interestingly, not Zelensky himself, but his associates, are screaming that Russian missiles and shells are flying at people standing in lines for bread. Those. somehow it turned out that in / in Ukraine there is not enough bread for their own citizens. But exported abroad
