U.N. aid chief Martin Griffiths is in Moscow on Thursday and Friday to discuss clearing the way for exports of grain and other food from Ukraine's Black Sea ports, a U.N. spokesperson said.
Griffiths will meet Russian officials days after another senior U.N. official, Rebecca Grynspan, had "constructive" talks in Moscow with Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov on expediting Russian grain and fertilizer exports.
