Turkish Defence Chief Hulusi Akar addresses a host of issues — from ties with Greece to the Türkiye-brokered grain deal, among others — at the 13th Ambassadors Conference in Ankara.
The Turkish-brokered agreement allows millions of tons of grain stuck in Ukrainian ports due to Moscow’s blockade to reach international markets. Here is how it works.
Under a recent landmark deal signed in Istanbul, the grain-laden ships Mustafa Necati, Star Helena and Glory left Ukraine’s Chornomorsk port, and the vessel Riva Mind left the port of Odessa.
Türkiye's defence minister underlined that they continue to work with Russian, Ukrainian and UN officials for the smooth functioning of the grain ships under Ankara-brokered deal.
Technical work on the first grain shipment has been completed and is expected to take place after administrative preparations conclude, Turkish National Defense Ministry says.
Defence Minister Hulusi Akar says Türkiye expects common sense to prevail after the US House approved legislation that would create a hurdle for President Biden’s plan to sell fighter jets to Ankara.
