Kremlin declines comment on whether resumption of Black Sea shipping is on Abu Dhabi talks agenda

Kremlin ​spokesman Dmitry Peskov ​said on ‌Tuesday that ​he would not provide any details ‌on whether the resumption of shipping in the Black Sea, a major global grain ‌trading route, would be on the ‌agenda of trilateral talks between Russia, Ukraine and the U.S. in Abu Dhabi. Grain trade ⁠in ​the ⁠Black Sea has stalled following mutual drone attacks ⁠by Russia and Ukraine on vessels ​and ports. Mediation efforts to resume trade, ⁠led by Turkey, have so far yielded ⁠no ​results.

Wheat traded near multi-month lows on Tuesday as traders awaited the ⁠outcome of peace talks between Russia ⁠and ⁠Ukraine that could boost global supply by reviving grain exports.
