“To clarify recent reports, there are currently no plans to deploy British warships in the Black Sea.
We will continue to work intensively with international partners to find ways to resume grain exports from Ukraine, ”RIA Novosti reports.
Earlier, The Times reported that Lithuanian and British Foreign Ministers Gabrielius Landsbergis and Liz Truss discussed a plan to send warships to the Black Sea to escort ships exporting Ukrainian grain.
The Kremlin noted that before opening Ukrainian ports, including for the export of grain, they need to be cleared, since the danger to shipping remains.
According to the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov, Ukraine's actions to mine the water area, which made the sea route unsafe, led to the food situation.
