Greece says it is willing to deploy ships to help export grain from Ukrainian ports, according to NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.
“Greece has announced that it is ready to provide ships for the export of grain from Ukraine,” Stoltenberg was quoted as saying by Reuters.
The NATO secretary general also said that Sweden and Finland would sign the NATO accession protocol on Tuesday to formally join the alliance.
