The G7 countries’ ambassadors to Ukraine visited Odesa, declaring the importance of the agreement on the export of Ukrainian agricultural products.
This was reported by the British ambassador to Ukraine, Melinda Simmons, European Pravda writes.
"My fellow G7 ambassadors and I are in Odesa with Turkey to reiterate the importance of the UN-brokered deal allowing food to be shipped out of Ukraine. Russia must respect the deal," Simmons wrote on Twitter.

As previously reported, last Friday Turkey, Russia, Ukraine and the UN signed an initiative in Istanbul to lift the blockade on the export of Ukrainian food by sea.
The very next day after the signing of the agreement, Russia violated the document by shelling the port of Odesa, an act that was condemned by the UN, the EU and the US; Ankara called on the parties to respect and implement the agreements reached.
