Andryuschenko reported how the Russians are exporting stolen Ukrainian grain

The Russians continue to steal Ukrainian grain, exporting it from the temporarily occupied territories, in particular, in trucks.

This was reported on March 30 by the former advisor to the chairman of the currently temporarily occupied Mariupol, head of the Center for the Study of Occupation, Petro Andryuschenko.

“Convoys of grain trucks from the occupied Kherson and Zaporizhia regions do not stop,” Andryuschenko said, publishing the relevant footage.

According to him, after the harvest in 2024, the Russians stored the grain in elevators. Now, on the eve of the new sowing season, they are massively exporting it to Russia in order to free up storage facilities before the new harvest.

“Thus, the agricultural potential of the regions is being purposefully destroyed, and Ukrainian resources are being used with impunity for the needs of the Russian Federation. To understand the volumes: last year, the Mariupol port already sent at least 22 ships that transported 112 thousand tons of grain, mostly to Turkey and Egypt,” Andryuschenko noted.

He also added that in 2024, the Russians harvested about 500 million tons of grain and 250 thousand tons of sunflower in the occupied part of the Donetsk region. Almost all agricultural products have either already been exported to the territory of the aggressor country, Russia, or are in the process of being transported.

“The Russians are leaving only minimal reserves for the 2025 sowing campaign,” the head of the Center for the Study of Occupation emphasized.
