70 million tons of goods exported through Ukrainian sea corridor – Zelenskyy

Over a year of operation of the Ukrainian maritime corridor, 70 million tons of cargo were exported.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this on his Telegram channel, the Ukrainian News agency reports.

"For more than a year of operation of our export sea corridor, 70 million tons of goods have already been transported. More than 2,500 ships have left Ukrainian ports. The ports of Asia, Africa, Europe and America accept our Ukrainian goods. Countries from Egypt to Indonesia, from Tunisia and Libya to India, from Algeria to China received our Ukrainian grain," he wrote.

According to Zelenskyy, thanks to the humanitarian initiative "Grain from Ukraine" in Ethiopia, Somalia, Yemen and Sudan, at least hundreds of thousands of families and millions of people received the necessary food.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, Zelenskyy approved the new Maritime Security Strategy of Ukraine.
