Ukraine, Turkey and the UN have been notified of the extension of the grain deal for 60 days, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova wrote on her Telegram channel.

“In a world where men are declared women and the Moldovan language is Romanian, it is possible, of course, not to be able to read the documents. But still, the Ukrainian side, through the Belarusian colleagues, was notified of 60 days, as was the Turkish side, as well as the UN Secretary General,” she wrote.
The grain deal was first concluded on July 22, 2022 by Russia, Turkey, Ukraine and the UN, it provides for the organization of the export of grain from Ukraine, as well as other food and fertilizers from the Black Sea ports, including from Odessa.
On March 18, the deal expired, but it could be extended for another 120 days automatically with the consent of each of the parties. Earlier, representatives of Ukraine and Turkey stated that the deal was extended for 120 days.
At the same time, the deal also provides for the unblocking of Russian exports of food and fertilizers. Representatives of Russia have repeatedly stated that the restrictions remain. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Vershinin said that Moscow’s further position will depend on the real normalization of Russian agricultural exports, including bank payments, transport logistics, insurance, unfreezing of financial activities and the supply of ammonia through the Togliatti-Odessa pipeline.
