"In the grain corridor process, we believe that any initiative that isolates Russia is bound to fail, its success is of very little possibility," the Turkish leader said after the G20 Summit in New Delhi. Erdogan also noted that Turkiye and Qatar were placing great significance on grain supplies to Africa, where food scarcity has had a serious impact.

Erdogan Warns Any Grain Route Plans Leaving Out Russia Bound to Fail
12:00 GMT 10.09.2023 (Updated: 12:43 GMT 10.09.2023) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Ankara is placing enormous importance on ensuring food security in Africa, but any alternatives to the grain deal that exclude Russia's participation are bound to fail, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan cautioned on Sunday.
"In the grain corridor process, we believe that any initiative that isolates Russia is bound to fail, its success is of very little possibility," the Turkish leader said after the G20 Summit in New Delhi.
Erdogan also noted that Turkiye and Qatar were placing great significance on
grain supplies to Africa, where food scarcity has had a serious impact.
"When meeting with [Russian Foreign Minister] Sergey Lavrov, I proposed that we do not limit ourselves to 1 million tonnes [of grain supplies to Africa], but send even more grain instead, since African countries need it," Erdogan said.
