Details: In total, 1,954 vessels were loaded and 55 million tonnes of cargo were transported.

With that, 37.4 million tonnes of agricultural products were exported to 45 countries of the world.

The constant increase of the scale of transportations is a sign of the efficiency of the Ukrainian sea corridor which Ukraine opened 10 months ago on its own, solely through the efforts of the Joint Defence Forces.

"Despite constant attacks on port infrastructure, Ukraine remains a top exporter of agricultural products and a guarantor of world trade security," the ministry adds.

At the moment 68 vessels, which are exporting almost 2 million tonnes of cargo, are waiting to enter the Odesa, Chornomorsk and Pivdennyi ports.  

Background:

The National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine and the Special Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office of Ukraine finished the investigation and renewed the notices of suspicion in the case regarding the appropriation of property of the Odesa International Airport valued at 118 million hryvnias (about US$2.9 million) and with income of over 2.5 million hryvnias (about US$61,000).

After Russia left the Black Sea Grain Initiative last summer, 1,300 vessels used a temporary sea route created by Ukraine and its international partners.
