What is the Ukraine war plan and where is all the stuff that was shopped to the Ukraine going?President Volodymyr Zelensky maintained that Ukraine’s goal is regaining full sovereignty over its territory.

The claim could not be independently verified.
As Russia’s blockade of Black Sea ports raised fears of a global food crisis, Ukraine said it was seeking a safe corridor for its agricultural exports.

Russia said two ports it recently captured have been demined and are ready to ship grain. Western officials accused Moscow of weaponizing food.
