Zelensky warns blockaded Ukraine grain stocks could triple by autumn

Description

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday warned that the volume of grain Ukraine is unable to export because of a Russian blockade could at least triple by the autumn. "Right now we have about 20-25 million tonnes blocked. In the autumn that could be 70-75 million tonnes," said Zelensky, whose country was the world's fourth biggest grain exporter before the war.
