Ukrainian Foreign Minister (FM) Dmytro Kuleba has started his third tour of African countries, according to a statment issued by Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Kuleba will start his tour with a visit to Equatorial Guine.

Ukrainian FM's tour comes against the backdrop of the worsening global food crisis after Russia's withdrawal from the Black Sea Grain Initiative.

In Malabo, Kuleba will hold talks with the country's leadership on developing bilateral relations, increasing trade volume, ensuring food security in Africa and supporting the peace formula drawn up by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ukrainian FM's first African tour took place in October 2022 (Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana and Kenya), and the second - in May 2023 (Morocco, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Mozambique and Nigeria).
