BEIRUT (Sputnik) - Russian FM Sergey Lavrov and Egyptian FM Badr Abdelatty discussed how regional tensions affect maritime security, global trade and grain supplies during a meeting on the sidelines of the Sir Bani Yas Forum in the UAE, Egypt’s Foreign Ministry said.
"During the meeting the consequences of regional tensions for the safety of international navigation and global trade were discussed, as well as their impact on food security and grain supply chains," the statement read.
