Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia Sergei Vershinin said that Moscow intends to continue consultations with the UN on the implementation of the Russian part of the grain deal.

Vershinin added in a press statement today, Saturday, that Moscow considers the consultations held on Friday in Geneva positive, noting that another consultation session will take place before the end of this year.

The Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia said: “Yesterday we had another round of consultations with representatives of the United Nations… This is not the first meeting of its kind. We held consultations in Geneva and in Moscow. Yesterday’s consultations were lengthy, useful and detailed.”
