Ukraine is considering the possibility of restoring the "grain corridor" with convoys

Ukraine is considering the possibility of restoring the "grain corridor" with convoys.
Interfax-Ukraine reports this, citing Volodymyr Zelensky.
The head of state noted that some ship-leasing companies or agri-traders had approached Ukraine, ready to use the corridor. However, the president emphasised that nobody can provide 100% security guarantees at the moment. Therefore, the issue of corridor restoration will be discussed with Turkey and other partners.
"The UN, Turkey, and the military can all say that no one is offering 100% guarantees. However, this is a very relaxed stance. It's not the stance we're ready for. Because we need the corridor to be operational," commented Zelensky.
The politician added that he was waiting for a response from the Ministry of Reintegration and the military regarding the possibility of implementing the corridor.
"And if the state gives us permission for this, we will go ahead and take on the associated risks," the president confirmed.
