reviving a deal - originally brokered by Turkey and the UN in July 2022 - which aimed to ensure the safe export of Ukrainian grain via the sea, where Russia controlsMoscow pulled out of the deal this July, complaining that Western economic sanctions were hampering its own food and fertiliser exports and that not enough Ukrainian grain was going to countries in need.
The agreement was set up to help solve the global food crisis that the UN said had been worsened by Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
