Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Vershinin said on Friday that Moscow was ready to explore options on grain exports, but that there were no current talks on an alternative to the Black Sea grain deal.

The deal, brokered by the United Nations and Turkey last July, aimed to help prevent a global food crisis by allowing grain blocked by the conflict in Ukraine to be safely exported from Black Sea ports.

Meanwhile, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said on Friday that having a grain deal alternative without Russia's participation will have a potential risk for security and both UN and Turkey agreed on it.

Plus, a spike in grain prices since Russia withdrew from a deal allowing the safe Black Sea export of Ukraine grain "potentially threatens hunger and worse for millions of people," the United Nations' aid chief told the Security Council on Friday.

Russia announced it was withdrawing from the deal on Monday.
