Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba says that Moscow is ready to end the blockade of Black Sea ports in Ukraine if the West relaxes its sanctions against Russia

The Foreign Minister has described Moscow’s latest offer as blackmail towards the international community.

This comes as the United Nations warns the block could intensify the global food crisis.

As 20 million tonnes of grain continue to be trapped in Ukrainian silos, international leaders fear that the naval blockade could lead to world grain shortages and further political instability.

Ukraine is one of the largest food suppliers in the world and is critical for the food distribution network.

Russia’s strong hold on the Black Sea ports has halted Ukrainian food export since the beginning of the war in February.

Senate upholds vote to release Epstein files despite White House delay attempt; Trump signals intent to sign bill.

The White House tried to delay a vote on the release of Justice Department files connected to Jeffrey Epstein, even as former President Trump insisted there was nothing to hide.

Despite this, the Senate approved the measure exactly as it passed the House, ignoring amendments proposed by Trump’s aides. This move clears the path for the files to be made public in full.

Trump has indicated he intends to sign the bill, marking a significant shift after the White House’s attempt to block or delay the vote proved unsuccessful. The decision could have wide-reaching implications for transparency and ongoing investigations.
