) Zelensky about the ongoing intensive work with international partners to find ways to resume grain exports from Ukraine in order to prevent a global food crisis,” the office of the British Prime Minister said in a statement.

Johnson stressed the intention of the United Kingdom to continue to work on this issue within the G7.

Earlier, US President Joe Biden said that Ukraine was studying ways to return 20 million tons of grain from Ukrainian storage facilities to the world market.

In turn, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said that the United States does not plan to involve its military for the export of grain from the territory of Ukraine.

EU diplomat Josep Borrell also said the European Union would help Ukraine empty its grain storage facilities to, he said, make room for a new crop.
