CED’s Policy Backgrounders provide timely insights on prominent business and economic policy issues facing the nation.
Grain deal: Russia at first suspended, but then rejoined, the agreement between it, Ukraine, the UN, and Turkey permitting grain exports through the Black Sea. Russia suspended participation after a drone attack on its fleet in Sevastopol, Crimea, including a sea-borne drone that may have been a modified jet ski, and accused Britain of helping coordinate the attack, which Britain strongly denied. The UN rejected accusations that a civilian cargo ship may have been involved in the drone attack, with the UN saying that no ships were in the humanitarian corridor at the time of the attack and adding that “[t]he corridor is just lines on a chart: when initiative vessels are not in the area, the corridor has no special status. It provides neither cover nor protection for offensive or defensive military action.”
