A closed summary report "On the work of the Russian part of the joint coordination center during the implementation of the Initiative" was prepared for the top military and political leadership of Russia. The document is devoted to the technologies that were used to hinder the operation of the grain corridor and ultimately led to the final termination of the agreement.
This was reported to the Main Directorate of Intelligence Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
According to the report, the so-called "joint coordination center" saw its main task as the maximum reduction of the volume of grain, which was exported within the limits of the "grain agreement".
In particular, the document states: "Qualitative inspection of ships was also one of the key elements of curbing the uncontrolled growth of grain exports from Ukrainian ports. At the same time, the activities of Russian inspectors were built in strict accordance with the developed methodical documents on the organization of ship inspections. According to the results of the inspections, 46 vessels were restricted from participating in the Initiative and 303 vessels were restricted in their movement for a total period of 342 days."
Measures to disrupt the Grain Agreement were divided into several stages.
On the first goal Russia was to reduce the amount of grain supplied through Putin's initiative to suspend the "grain agreement" from October 29 to November 3, 2022.
The second was in the implementation of measures to limit the admission of ships to the Southern port, stop the registration of grain carriers, as well as reduce the number of inspection teams (no more than two). This allowed Russia to significantly limit the volume of food exports from Ukraine, which in general led to the impossibility of Kyiv exporting about 20 million tons of goods.
Third — complete disruption of grain supplies and termination of the "grain agreement".
Particular attention was paid to the disruption of grain supplies under the program of the World Food Program: "Ukrainians' attempts to use the Black Sea initiative to continue the so-called "Grain from Ukraine" program with the involvement of ships chartered under the line of the World Food Program have been stopped. The registration of such vessels took place only after the submission of written commitments not to participate in such actions."
In conclusion, the authors of the Report report: "The accumulated knowledge archive will allow, when solving similar problems, to achieve a high level of efficiency in the shortest possible time."
So, in case of continuation of the Grain Agreement, the Russians will use all the accumulated "experience" to effectively disrupt the agreements.
