Zelenskyy also referred to G19 when offering the world leaders to join the Grain From Ukraine initiative which seeks to help supply food to world’s poorest countries. As part of the initiative, the first vessel carrying Ukrainian wheat has set sail from Ukraine to Ethiopia.

In his speech, Zelenskyy explained why Russia’s claims that it is prepared to negotiate with Ukraine should not be believed and why Ukraine is not yet ready to hold peace talks with Russia.
