Poland’s Sikorski Calls for Rapid Ceasefire in Black Sea to Allow Food Shipments

Sikorski urged a quick truce so grain can move through the Black Sea, while saying Russia must end the war before resuming energy sales to Europe.

  • On Friday, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski called for a rapid Black Sea ceasefire to allow safe grain shipments from Ukraine and Russia during a G20 foreign ministers meeting in Atlanta.
  • Sikorski argued restoring maritime trade is urgent for food-import dependent countries, stating, "I spoke in favor of doing something quickly because the people of the Global South need this grain."
  • The minister also linked any restoration of Russian energy sales to Europe to a "fair end" of the war, asserting that Europe should maintain involvement as it holds "cards" in the issue.
  • US Secretary of State Marco Rubio backed Poland's bid for full G20 membership, while Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov objected, claiming the move violated diplomatic consensus principles.
  • Britain, which will lead the G20 next year, has already invited Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk to attend the 2027 leaders summit in Manchester, England.
