Quote from Plenkovic: "Croatia strongly supports Ukraine and the Ukrainian people, who show exceptional courage in defending freedom and democracy!" Background: On Monday, the Ukrainian president arrived in Greece to participate in the Balkans summit.  Earlier, Ukraine and Croatia agreed to export Ukrainian grain during the visit of Croatian Foreign Minister Gordan Grlic Radman, which was complicated after Russia withdrew from the Black Sea Grain Initiative.

Prior to that, Croatia said it was ready to offer its infrastructure for the export of Ukrainian grain via alternative routes after Russia suspended the grain deal.
