Ukraine is “prepared” for covert tactics by the Russians after a deal brokered by Turkey and the UN to allow safe passage of grain from Ukraine’s Black Sea ports, said Alla Stoyanova, head of the agricultural policy department, relations food and land in the region of Odessa. “Speaking of the Russian side of the deal, there is a very big threat that the Russians can use the Trojan horse trick and use one of the incoming ships to deploy their troops on the coast of Odessa and try to take over Odessa “, Ms. Stoyanova told The Telegraph. “That’s why we will check all ships entering our territories to prevent invasion of Odessa. We believe that they agreed to sign this initiative because they are trying to find any possible way … to take over the Odesa region as it is a strategically important area in their military ‘special operation’.”
