Zelensky suggests resuming Russian ammonia exports if Kremlin hands back POWs.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said in an interview with Reuters that he proposed the plan to the UN amid a global shortage of fertilizers. “I am against supplying ammonia from Russia through our territory. I would only do it in exchange for our prisoners,” he said. Ukraine has a pipeline that can pump up to 2.5 million tonnes of ammonia annually from Russia to Ukraine’s Black Sea ports. Zelensky’s idea was rejected by the Kremlin.
