The issue of continuing assistance to Syria within the framework of the presidential humanitarian initiative "Grain from Ukraine" was discussed by Ukraine's Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food Vitaliy Koval and Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha.
"As part of the 'Grain from Ukraine' initiative, Ukraine has already sent sunflower oil to Mozambique. About 416 tons will arrive in early February. An additional 73.4 tons of oil and 970.5 tons of flour will be in Djibouti at the end of January. We are also sending 453 tons of sunflower oil to Tanzania soon," - wrote Koval on Telegram.
The minister noted that the meeting outlined steps for future deliveries and discussed expanding the range of agricultural products. Assistance to Syria will be systematic.
Koval reminded that under the project of Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, "Grain from Ukraine," products from Ukrainian producers are being procured through international partners to combat hunger worldwide.
"Thus, Ukrainian agricultural producers gain a market for their products, while countries in need receive quality food," - the Minister of Agrarian Policy concluded.
