    Grain exports and imports
     
    The coalition used data from the U.
    S.
    Department of Agriculture in its calculations, arguing that african countries could have imported 99.
    193 million tonnes of food this agricultural year, including 56.
    61 million tonnes of wheat
    .
     
    Russian President Vladimir Putin said on September 7 that an unprecedented humanitarian disaster
    could occur around the world as the West ships a large amount of grain from Ukraine to its own countries, ignoring the needs of African countries.
     
    The alliance's accounting also shows that Africa's food imports fell from 96.
    451 million tons in the 2020-2021 agricultural year to 93.
    416 million tons in the 2021-2022 agricultural year (ending on June 30), and the logistics problem is a possible cause, especially the consequences
    of the non-public sanctions restricting Russia's supply of food.
     
    Russian Defense Minister Shoigu signed two interrelated documents in Istanbul on July 22 to address the supply of food and fertilizer to
    the world market.
    The two documents are identical: the first is a memorandum requesting the United Nations to lift restrictions on the export of Russian agricultural products and fertilizers to the world market; The second document establishes a tight plan for the export of Ukrainian agricultural products from the Black Sea ports it controls, but Moscow notes that the issue of exports of Russian products has not yet been resolved
