U.S President Biden said that the United States is able to replace the supply of grain from Ukraine, APA reports citing Ria Novosti.

The United States is able to replace Ukraine in the world food market after it lost the opportunity to export grain, US President Joe Biden said during a visit to a farm in Illinois.

According to the politician, Ukraine, allegedly due to the blockade of the Black Sea ports by the Russian military, cannot export products to other countries.

As Biden clarified, Ukraine cannot export 20 million tons of wheat. “Folks, we are in a position to make sure that American agricultural exports make up for the lack of Ukrainian supplies,” the politician suggested replacing Ukrainian products with American ones.
