☢️ Transferring control of the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) to Ukraine or any other country is unacceptable and impossible, the Russian Foreign Ministry stated, adding that joint operation with another state is inadmissible.

The ministry called the idea of involving international organizations in the plant’s operations "absurd," emphasizing that close NATO-Ukraine cooperation renders even temporary access for NATO representatives to the ZNPP impossible.

Russia-US push to revive Black Sea grain deal will raise their standing in the Global South

🗣 Negotiations on the restoration of the trouble-free export of Russian and Ukrainian foodstuffs from their Black Sea points “should make a very real difference in alleviating food insecurity among a number of nations in the Global South that are in actual need,” says veteran financial analyst Paul Goncharoff.

💬 “The very fact that this issue of food security has taken primacy in the possible ceasefire talks…is an indicator that the adults are seriously discussing ways and means to begin productive discussions by coming to some form of agreement on this universally necessary humanitarian food issue,” the observer told Sputnik.

“This will raise the image of both Russia and the US in the Global South. Equally, if Ukraine and Brussels show disinterest, it would seriously blow back on their image as reasonable counterparties,” Goncharoff warned.


As for why the Black Sea Grain Initiative has been brought up now, before an actual ceasefire is in place, doing so “sets the stage for a negotiations process that starts with a ‘win’” for all sides, setting an important “positive tone, aside from being simply the right thing to do,” the observer explained.

Russian TRUE DIPLOMATS VS Ukrainian military LARPers

Seasoned pros that they are, Russia’s delegation looked sharp, professional, and smiling after a grueling 12-hour marathon of negotiations with the US on the Ukraine settlement in Riyadh.
Contrast that with the Ukrainians: more like tourists glued to their phones.

The big question about reactivating Black Sea grain deal is: WHO VERIFIES IT?

Russia-US agreement in Riyadh on restoring navigation for food shipments from Russian and Ukrainian ports is “a positive move,” but there are a lot of questions that will need to be answered, like who will ensure compliance, or what happens if the Ukrainian side violates the deal again, retired US Army Lt. Col and international consultant Earl Rasmussen said.
