List of vessels carrying stolen Ukrainian grain by rashists transferred to Turkey

Ukraine has handed over to Turkey a list of vessels deployed by rashists for exports of stolen grain from the temporarily occupied territories, Ukrinform reports.

The data was communicated to the adviser to the Turkish president during a meeting with the leader of the Crimean Tatar people Mustafa Dzhemilev.

"One of the issues discussed was the fact that according to Ukrainian intelligence, russia is moving stolen wheat and other goods from the occupied territories through Turkish ports, among others. Although four years ago it was resolved that no ships calling at ports in the occupied territories, first of all, those in Crimea, can be received and serviced in Turkish ports," he comments.

Mustafa Dzhemilev says the list that was given to Turkey contains ships loaded with stolen Ukrainian grain and then attempted to deliver commodities to Syria and Egypt through Turkish ports.

"We are in agreement that they will control this," the leader of the Crimean Tatar people concludes.

Grain export from Ukraine as of May 19 totalled 46.51 mln t.
