The Bulgarian bulk carrier "Rojen" will be the first vessel to export Ukrainian grain from the Ukrainian port of Chernomorsk, BNT has reported. A corridor is currently being organized and mines are being cleared. The ship is expected to leave in the coming days.

"Rojen" will sail along the corridor agreed by Ukraine, Turkey and Russia from Chernomorsk to the Romanian port of Sulina and from there to Istanbul, where it will undergo cargo inspection. According to information from Ukrainian media USM, the Bulgarian ship will transport 40,000 tons of corn to Great Britain.

"Rojen" entered the port of Chernomorsk on February 21 and has stayed blocked there since then.
