En attendant Godot: US says it will hold Russia accountable for implementing grain deal

Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the US ambassador to the UN, says Washington will work to hold Russia accountable for implementing the agreement reached on resuming Ukraine’s Black Sea grain exports.

The US also wants China to stop stockpiling grain and offer more to meet global humanitarian aid needs, James O’Brien, head of the US Department of States Office of Sanctions Coordination, told reporters.

  1. UK and its allies will watch to make sure Russia fulfils the commitments under the agreement on the export of Ukrainian grain, UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said in a statement on Friday.

    "It is vital that Ukrainian grain reaches international food markets, and we applaud Turkey and the UN Secretary General for their efforts to broker this agreement. The UK and our allies have been pushing hard to reach this point. Now this agreement must be implemented, and we will be watching to ensure Russia’s actions match its words," Truss said.

    "To enable a lasting return to global security and economic stability," Russian military operation in Ukraine must be ended and Russian troops withdrawn from Ukraine, she said.
