Global Grain Deal at a Crossroads: US Warnings on Russia’s Possible Exit

US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan warned Russia about potential repercussions if Moscow withdraws from the grain export agreement. The warning was reported by the channel’s website, and the commentary underscored the wider impact a decision to exit would have on global food security. Sullivan noted that should Moscow decline to extend the pact, countries across the Global South—spanning Africa, Latin America, and parts of Asia—could face higher food costs and tighter supplies, with the world watching Russia’s actions closely. He warned that such a move could carry significant diplomatic costs for Russia in the weeks and months ahead.
