U.S. welcomes Russia's resumption of grain deal

U.S. Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said she was “delighted” the deal that guarantees safe passage for ships carrying vital grain exports from Ukraine was being resurrected.

"I was delighted to hear this news. And I want to first commend the UN, the Secretary-General, in particular, for continuing to negotiate this important deal, because it’s providing needed food to the world," she told CNN This Morning.
