"The decision that the vessel PANORMITIS, which is illegally transporting grain from the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, will not be unloaded in Israel is a positive step. This demonstrates the effectiveness of Ukraine's legal and diplomatic efforts. At the same time, it is a clear signal to all other vessels, captains, operators, insurers, and governments: do not buy stolen Ukrainian grain. Do not become accomplices to this crime," the Foreign Minister noted.
"We continue to monitor this vessel and warn everyone against any cooperation with it. We will continue to increase sanctions pressure on the Russian 'shadow fleet' engaged in the export of grain," the minister added.
