Cap-doff to Sashimi for nitter.moomoo access: Alexandre Guerreiro @ATGuerreiro 20h This graph was taken from the reports provided by the Joint Coordination Center of the Black Sea Grain Deal and clearly shows that 80,34% of the grain exported from Ukrainian ports was sent to high-income and upper-middle-income countries. Top 5 destinations were: 1- China (24,24%) 2- Spain (18,20%) 3- Türkiye (9,85%) 4- Italy (6,28%) 5- Netherlands (5,96%) These countries concentrated nearly two thirds (64,53%) of the total exports from Ukrainian ports. However, low income countries only got 2,50% of nearly 32,9 million metric tons! Spain alone received more than Algeria, Bangladesh, Djibouti, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Iran, Kenya, Lebanon, Morocco, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Tunisia and Viet Nam combined. And even Portugal alone received more than Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen combined. So, how can someone say that the grain deal has a strong impact in the grain directed at the poorest countries?
