“The [UN] secretary general came up with an initiative on the road map, it was sent to Russia and Ukraine. A similar letter with the road map was received by the president [Erdogan]. The road map includes various proposals to extend the ‘grain deal’, including the export of Russian ammonia from the port of Odesa and cooperation with Turkey on the issue of payment [for Russian agricultural products],” the minister told the Turkish TRT Haber broadcaster.
