This was stated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.

"The next step is to deliver another 34,<> tons to Nigeria," she said.

Zakharova also stressed that Americans, Europeans and Ukrainians continue to block Russia's supply of grain and fertilizers, "openly speculating on rising prices and physical shortages of these key goods on world markets."

On May 29, the Uralchem-Uralkali group reported that Russia had delivered a batch of fertilizers worth 34 thousand tons to the Kenyan port of Mombasa.

The previous shipment from the port to the EU, consisting of 20 thousand tons of complex fertilizers, was officially handed over to Malawi in early March 2023.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said that Western countries should remove obstacles to the access of Russian agricultural products to world markets - statements alone are not enough.
