MOSCOW/DUBAI (Reuters) – Russian wheat supplies to Syria have been suspended due to uncertainty over the new government and payment delays, Russian and Syrian sources said on Friday.
Shipping data showed that two vessels carrying Russian wheat destined for Syria had not reached their destinations.
Russia, the world’s largest wheat exporter, was a key supporter of Bashar al-Assad and supplied wheat to Syria through complex financial and logistical arrangements, circumventing Western sanctions imposed on both Syria and Russia.
