Ukraine has cordial working relations with the continental organization, the African Union.<\/p>\n<p>An objective that has been set to the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry is to broaden Ukraine\u2019s presence in Africa, Kuleba said. During the last Africa Day held on May 25, Kuleba strongly reiterated that Ukraine would engage in constructive directions with Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kuleba in an address on the occasion of Africa Day and the 60th anniversary of the foundation of the Organization of African Unity called for the reform of international organizations and for the African Union joining the permanent members of the G20 and the United Nations Security Council.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUkraine will step up its foreign policy on Africa aimed at a Ukrainian-African renaissance,\u201d the minister said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year, we intend to open new embassies in different parts of Africa and plan to hold the first Ukraine-Africa summit,\u201d the minister said.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasized that Kiev \u201cis open to discuss any peace initiatives, if they honor two principles: neither include territorial concessions, nor lead to a frozen conflict instead of peace.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, \u201cit is the Ukrainian peace plan that should be a foundation of any peace efforts. \u201d Following several discussions with a number Ukrainian authorities combined with media monitoring, Ukraine plans to open ten (10) diplomatic offices in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Long before that, Ukraine is undoubtedly the main exporter of grains to Africa. As already known, Ukrainian grain exports form part of the Black Sea Grain Initiative. Ukraine\u2019s focus is to ensure food security in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian government said it has approved the establishment of the Ukrainian-African Trade Mission Limited Liability Company, according to Taras Melnychuk, the government\u2019s representative in the Ukrainian parliament (Verkhovna Rada) on June 20.<\/p>\n<p>The initiative was launched by the Ministry of Agrarian Policy, and the Ministry of Agriculture will be responsible for managing the state\u2019s ownership of the company.<\/p>\n<p>The trade mission will operate on a permanent basis, aiming at safeguarding Ukraine\u2019s economic interests in a number of African countries. Additionally, it will provide advisory services to support the provision of humanitarian aid.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine set up state-owned Ukrainian-African Trade Mission LLC to represent Ukraine\u2019s foreign trade interests in African states and to offer consultative services related to the provision of humanitarian aid.<\/p>\n<p>It will operate on a permanent basis and will be 100% owned by the state.
