Despite the conclusion of the grain export negotiations through the Black Sea, voices of international condemnation are pouring in against Russia for attacking the infrastructure of Odessa, one of the major grain export ports in Ukraine.
According to AFP, U.N. Deputy Spokesman Farhan Haq said in a statement that U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the attack at the port of Odessa, Ukraine.
Haq stressed that the agreement between Russia, Ukraine and Turkey must be fully implemented.
On the previous day, the United Nations, along with Ukraine, Russia, and Turkey, signed a final agreement on grain exports through the Black Sea. In order to solve the global food shortage, the government has decided to set up a safe route for opening the way to export grain and fertilizer from Ukraine andRussia.
However, the international community has been criticizing Russia for bombing missiles at the infrastructure of Odessa, which was one of the grain export ports that were supposed to guarantee safe routes.The attack was committed just after a day since the agreement was reached in Istanbul.
Rousseff Borrell, a senior foreign and security policy representative in charge of EU foreign policy, said "The EU condemns Russian missile strikes on the port of Odessa." "Once again, it shows Russia's complete disregard for international law and commitment."British Foreign Minister Liz Truss stressed that Russian attack is proof that Russian President Vladimir Putin could not be trusted.
Turkish Defense Minister HulushiAkar, who served as a mediator between Russia and Ukraine with the United Nations, also told the state-run Anadolu news agency that "This incident really worries us."
However, despite such concerns from the international community, concerns are growing over the possibility that the grain export agreement itself may fail.
