Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said India is ready to help mediate food corridors through the Black Sea after speaking with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The initiative comes as attacks on ports have disrupted grain and oilseed exports, while Russia’s cooperation and shipping security remain unresolved obstacles.
A functioning corridor could restore grain and oilseed flows from the Black Sea and ease supply pressure for importers, potentially weighing on prices. Until an agreement is reached and shipping resumes, export disruption remains supportive for prices.
