WATCH Russia’s Secret Logistics Network To Steal Ukrainian Grain

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Friday that Moscow is ready to negotiate with Ukraine and Turkey about grain exports but it is unclear when these talks could take place. Meanwhile NATO has made little progress clearing mines from the Black Sea or with plans for the US Navy to escort grain ships.

While the war in Ukraine has upended the global supply of grain, a new investigation by the Wall Street Journal reveals how Russia has quietly institutionalized the theft of hundreds of thousands of metric tons of food out of newly occupied areas of Ukraine and into Russian-allied countries in the Middle East.

The maritime logistics network used by Russia is detailed in the following video the Wall Street Journal posted to YouTube.
