The buyer refused to purchase the first batch of Ukrainian grain delivered by the Razoni dry cargo ship from Odessa to Tripoli due to a delay in delivery, the Ukrainian Embassy in Lebanon said.
“According to information from the cargo supplier, the final buyer in Lebanon refused to receive the cargo due to a delay in delivery (more than five months),” the message says.
Now the supplier is looking for a new buyer both in Lebanon and abroad, the embassy added.
On July 22, representatives of Turkey and the UN signed separate agreements with representatives of Russia and Ukraine on the export of Ukrainian grain, as well as on assistance in the export of Russian grain and fertilizers. On July 27, the Joint Coordination Center for the export of grain began its work in Istanbul.
On August 1, the first Sierra Leone-flagged ship loaded with corn headed for Lebanon. The next day, the ship reached Istanbul, where it was inspected.
The grain has been blocked in the seaports of Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian special operation. The Ukrainian authorities and the UN accused Russia of blocking the courts. The Russian Ministry of Defense insisted that the ships could not leave the ports because of Ukrainian mines in the sea.
