While
Turkey is participating in negotiations in order to unblock Ukrainian ports,
its ports receive Russian vessels from occupied Crimea. So, today the Russian
dry cargo ship "Nadezhda" with a cargo of barley left for the Turkish
port of Samsun, indicating the port of shipment – the Russian Caucasus. At the
same time, the ship was loaded with grain in the annexed Crimea, reports "Mirotvorets".
On July 15,
the dry cargo entered the Kerch Strait from the port of Karasu, where it
previously delivered about 3,000 tons of corn from the Kerch Ribport. The ship
was on a raid of the port of Kavkaz, and the next day it headed towards the
bridge and turned off the AIS.
On July 16,
"Nadezhda" entered the Kerch port, where it was moored near berth No.
6. Two days later, the ship left Kerch and went to the port of Kavkaz.
Turkish
ports regularly trade with the annexed Crimea. Also, the Turkish side accepts
fake documents from Russia about the origin of the cargo, despite the fact that
Ukrainian diplomats warned Turkey about such frauds.
