Top United Nations trade official Rebeca Grynspan is expected to travel to Moscow this week, a spokesperson said on Tuesday, amid a diplomatic push to ensure a deal allowing for the safe export of Ukrainian grain from Black Sea ports is renewed.
Russia, which invaded Ukraine in February last year, has repeatedly said it will not allow the deal to be extended beyond May 18 unless Western countries removes obstacles to Russian grain and fertiliser exports.
