UN General Assembly plenary session on situation in Ukraine: Part 1

The United Nation's General Assembly is meeting in New York on Tuesday, July 17, for a plenary session on the situation in Ukraine.

The meeting takes place amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to renew the Black Sea Grain Initiative (BSGI), which expired at midnight between 17 and 18 July. The initiative was last renewed in May 2023 for a period of 60 days.

Russia has said that it would not renew the BSGI, claiming that its own food and fertilizer exports to international markets are still being blocked. Moscow expressed its readiness to return to the mechanism if its interests are respected.
