Ukraine ‘offering Russia deal to halt attacks on civilian ships in Black Sea’
Kyiv reportedly suggested mutual agreement in attempt to reopen crucial grain corridor
Ukraine has proposed a deal with Russia for both sides to halt their attacks on civilian ships in the Black Sea in an apparent attempt to reopen a crucial grain corridor, Reuters reports.
Kyiv is said to have made the offer through a third party. Moscow has yet to respond, the news agency added. The busy waterway is a key export route for both Russia and Ukraine, used to transport grain and other vital foodstuffs worldwide.
