Before empty ships can enter and pick up cargo from Ukraine, key agreements still need to be worked out, reported Reuters. Neil Roberts, a representative of the London marine insurance market, also discussed the procedures for ships that will pass through the grain corridor. According to him, standard operating procedures for ships still need to be developed, and there are unresolved issues with the crew. The Sierra Leonean-flagged ship Razoni, carrying grain, left the Ukrainian port of Odesa for Lebanon on Monday under a safe passage agreement. “This remains an example of steady but cautious progress,” Roberts commented on the news.
