The first major 30,000 MT shipment of wheat to Venezuela from Russia arrived on 01 September, as part of a deal negotiated between the South American country and Russia by President Nicolas Maduro to ensure supply of the staple food product for at least 10 years. Second ship will also be arriving soon, and so can begin to replace former suppliers with those who are more reliable and closer to our revolutionary process. U.S. signed an order last week imposing new sanctions on the nation’s financial and economic structures. Venezuela is due to receive more than 600 thousand tons of wheat by the end of December, in addition to other products promised by Russia. It will be delivered to mills for processing and before being sent to factories to supply over 10 thousand bakeries.
