UNITED NATIONS, 29 August 2022, (TON): The UN Coordinator for the Black Sea Grain Initiative, Amir Abdulla reported that the exports of Ukrainian grain and other foodstuffs, under a landmark agreement amid the ongoing war, have surpassed one million metric tonnes.
He said “this remarkable achievement was made possible through the collective efforts and hard work of the Joint Coordination Centre, referring to the Istanbul-based mechanism that monitors ships’ movements to ensure their compliance with the Initiative.”
The JCC brings together representatives from Ukraine, Russia, Türkiye and the UN – the signatories of the landmark agreement.
Operations began on August 1, and the JCC has already enabled dozens of voyages through the Black Sea.
