Russia threatens to close grain corridor if reports regarding Crimean bridge explosion confirmed

Russia will close the grain corridor if it is confirmed that the explosives for the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge were taken out of Odesa on a grain truck, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, according to Report.

"The FSB stated that, most likely, the explosives for the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge were sent by sea. However, the special service did not establish exactly whether this was done with the help of grain trucks or not. If it turns out that humanitarian corridors are being used for terrorist attacks, then this will call into question the grain deal," he said.

Putin also said that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan proposed to structure the flow of Ukrainian grain so that they go primarily to the poorest countries.
