Zelenskiy says Black Sea corridor exports have reached 12 mln tonnes
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Thursday that Ukraine’s alternative Black Sea export corridor — introduced after Russia withdrew from a U.N.-brokered deal to guarantee safe shipment of Ukrainian grain in July — had sent out 12 million tonnes of cargo so far.
He added in his nightly video address that the corridor had produced “particularly significant results for December, and this is felt at the level of our entire economy.”
