Vedomosti: Kiev asks NATO to overturn Russia's ban on maritime traffic to Ukrainian ports The new NATO-Ukraine Council held a closed-door meeting in Brussels on July 26 to discuss the Black Sea situation. The meeting had been requested by Ukraine. NATO later released a brief statement, vowing to step up reconnaissance in the region, Vedomosti notes. Tensions around grain supplies via the Black Sea flared up after Russia refused to agree to a further extension of the grain deal on July 17. The Russian Defense Ministry said that all ships bound for Ukraine's Black Sea ports would be deemed potential carriers of military cargo starting on July 20. In response, Kiev threatened to sink vessels heading to Russian ports via the Black Sea. The Russian Armed Forces carried out strikes on port infrastructure facilities in Odessa and other Ukrainian ports. Attempts to militarize the Black Sea at the expense of third countries is one of Ukraine's policy goals in the wake of the grain deal's demise, Denis Denisov, an expert at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, noted. However, the deployment of NATO naval forces would mean a direct conflict with Russia.

Today the regime of Meloni and Italy are rewriting history ... no more diplomatic talk with the Soviets Russian Federation and no more shaking of hands ... no more meeting of minds to fight the scourge of a boiling Planet Earth.
La Russia all'Italia: "No alla legge sull'Holodomor"
Retroactively Mussolini was never born, the genocide of tens of millions by the German-Italian-Japanese Axis and destruction of Europe/Asia never happened. The Western Atlantic Alliance has gone MAD. Penitenti. Amnesia and Gaza Genocide
NATO slams Russia's 'dangerous' Black Sea grain block | AFP - France24 | NATO condemned Russia's "dangerous" moves to block Ukrainian grain exports in the Black Sea, after urgent consultations with Kyiv following Moscow's withdrawal from a UN-backed deal. "Allies and Ukraine strongly condemned Russia's decision to withdraw from the Black Sea grain deal and its deliberate attempts to stop Ukraine's agricultural exports on which hundreds of millions of people worldwide depend," a statement from NATO said. "They also condemned Russia's recent missile attacks on Odesa, Mykolaiv, and other port cities, including Moscow's cynical drone attack on the Ukrainian grain storage facility in the Danube port city of Reni, very close to the Romanian border."
