ISTANBUL: A civilian cargo vessel sailing from Ukraine reached Turkish waters on Thursday in defiance of a Moscow blockade that saw another ship come under attack from Russian military personnel.on Wednesday - the first vessel to directly challenge Russia's new bid to seal Ukraine's access to the Black Sea.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the ship was using a"new humanitarian corridor" that Kyiv established after Russia last month scuppered a landmark agreement allowing Ukraine to export grain and foodstuffs across the Black Sea. Ukraine's Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov said the new sea route"will be primarily used to evacuate ships that were in ports at the time of the full-scale invasion" in February of last year.
An unnamed US official told the paper that Washington is"going to look at everything" - including the possibility of military support for the Ukrainian ships."Our efforts are focused on making the grain corridor deal active again," the unnamed defence official told Türkiye's NTV television.Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan hopes to meet Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin later this month for talks focused on the Black Sea.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba told AFP this week that Kyiv needed to launch a diplomatic"counteroffensive" on the continent. Kyiv is trying to reach its southern coast and cut Moscow's access to Ukraine's Russian-seized peninsula of Crimea.The offensive is relying on new Western equipment and training but progressing slower than Kyiv and its allies had hoped.
