The seas have become a major front in the Russian-Ukrainian war, as ports, ships, energy facilities, and grain infrastructure come under attack, while both sides have stepped up operations in the Black and Baltic Seas. The escalation is tied to the importance of food exports to both countries: grain and vegetable oils accounted for around 40% of Ukraine’s goods exports in the first half of the year, and Kyiv could lose at least $8 billion if its ports remain closed. Ukrainian attacks have cut Russia’s grain-export capacity by around 70%, while Russian attacks have taken nearly 90% of Ukraine’s grain shipments out of service. The article warns that disruptions to shipping and exports could drive up food prices and increase import costs, particularly for Arab and African countries that rely on imported grain.
