Zelensky States Ukraine Ready for Maritime Ceasefire
During the United Nations summit, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Kyiv is prepared to ceasefire in the Black Sea based on proposals put forward by Egypt, India, and Turkey. The ball is now in Russia's court to respond. He explained that Ukraine seeks to halt attacks on ports and maritime infrastructure and fears that its energy facilities may be targeted by shelling during the winter. He also indicated that Russia is expected to take genuine steps to de-escalate tensions if it agrees to do so. Importing countries are facing consequences from delays in supply and rising prices of wheat. Meanwhile, a meeting is being held between the foreign ministers of Russia and Ukraine to discuss a limited ceasefire related to grains and energy, as the Kremlin continues to reject broader peace negotiations.
