“Türkiye has protected the international community from nine specific risks: trade, price, logistical, production, energy, exchange rate, debt, growth and humanitarian risks,” says a security analyst while commenting on the Ukraine-Russia grain deal
The warring parties—Ukraine and Russia—both saw Türkiye as a credible arbiter, letting Ankara host the grain talks under the supervision of the UN.
“This deal is a part of a long-term mediation process that Türkiye started at the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.” Both Russia and Ukraine are the world’s major exporters of wheat. When Moscow launched its assault on Ukraine, it blocked a key Ukrainian port of Odesa, leaving many ships with millions of tonnes of grain stranded.
“By playing its part in this deal, Türkiye has protected the international community from nine specific risks: trade, price, logistical, production, energy, exchange rate, debt, growth and humanitarian risks,” says Islam.The four-party agreement, involving the UN, Türkiye, Russia and Ukraine, will enable Kiev to export 22 million tonnes of stranded grain to world markets.
