US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said during the meeting: “Stop obstructing the Black Sea ports! Allow freedom of movement for ships, trains and trucks transporting food from Ukraine.” He continued: “Stop suspending the export of food and fertilizers to countries that are critical of the war.”
