A ship carrying nearly 30,000 tons of corn set sail on Monday and received widespread press in the process. That’s because it’s the first ship carrying Ukrainian grain to leave the country under a deal with Russia brokered by the UN and Turkey and designed to ease the global food crisis. “The first grain ship since Russian aggression has left port,” Ukraine’s Minister of Infrastructure Oleksandr Kubrakov tweeted, noting it was the first ship to leave that port since Feb.
