In order to transport 20 million tons of food, the United States has made a move, Ukraine: Just one of the feasible measures

According to Reuters on the 14th, US President Biden said on Tuesday that temporary granary will be established along the border of Ukraine, because it helps Ukraine to export more food to deal with the potential global food crisis.

Reuters said that since the beginning of the Russian -Ukraine conflict, Ukraine's grain transportation has stalled, and more than 20 million tons of grain has stayed in China. Russia and Ukraine account for nearly one -third of the total global wheat exports. Ukraine is also the main exporter of corn and sunflower seed oil, and Russia is the main exporter of chemical fertilizers.

Biden said at a meeting in Philadelphia: "I am working closely with our European partners to transport 20 million tons of grain in Ukraine to the global market to help reduce food prices."

He also said that Washington is developing a plan to transport food through railways, but he pointed out that Ukraine's railway specifications are different from Europe, so food must be transferred to other trains on the Ukraine border. "Therefore, we will establish a temporary granary on the Ukraine border, including in Poland." Biden said that these foods can be transferred from Ukrainian trains to temporary granary, and then transferred to European freight trains. It is transported all over the world, but the plan takes time.

Ukrainian President's Office Director Andrey Yermark posted online: "This is only one of the effective measures to ensure food safety, but our ports also need a green corridor."

Reuters said that the Ministry of Agriculture of Ukraine said on Tuesday that European countries are considering providing temporary granary to "preserve food and ensure future food supply." But Ukraine said that the best way to restore food exports is to transport through the Black Sea.

UN Secretary -General Gutres is working hard to promote the "Package Agreement" to restore the exit of Ukraine's food through the Black Sea and the export of Russian food and chemical fertilizer. Russia said that food and fertilizer exports are being influenced by Western sanctions. So far, the United Nations has said that talks with Russia is "constructive."

Some Western politicians and media have previously claimed that Russia has "blocked" the port of food exported to Ukraine, leading to a shortage of food in the world, and Russia has repeatedly refuted such claims. Russian President Putin delivered a speech on Russia on June 3, stating that someone tried to shirk the current status of the global grain market to Russia. This was "marrying people." The issue of international food shortage has occurred before Russia launched "special military operations" in Ukraine.

Putin denied Russia's "blockade" Port Ukraine port and said that Russia would not hinder Ukraine's food exports. He also called for all vessels that loaded food to pass safely. He said that new sanctions on Russia will continue to deteriorate the situation of the international fertilizer and food market. Grain harvest will decrease, but prices will only rise.
