Attacks in Black Sea Threaten to Strangle Global Grain Supply
📍 The outcome
The attacks in the Black Sea forced Russian grain to be redirected toward Baltic ports, but alternative routes were reported to be capable of substituting no more than half of Russia’s exports. With more than 50 ships attacked this summer and no indication of a de‑escalation, the threat to global grain supplies persisted without a clear resolution.
