About this, according to RIA Novosti, Zakharova said on the air of the radio "Komsomolskaya Pravda".

She said that the work is carried out at the level of Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia Sergey Vershinin.

"Without these efforts, probably, the whole picture would be different and definitely would not satisfy anyone," she stressed.

Earlier, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Vershinin said that Russia decided to extend the grain deal only for 60 days due to the lack of progress on the supply of Russian food and fertilizers.

The representative of the UN Secretary-General, Stephane Dujarric, said that discussions on various aspects regarding the grain deal continue.
