Yes, exactly. There's large need for Ukrainian grain elsewhere, but export via sea routes is obviously very hard with the war going on. My comment was about the parent trying to twist this to mean there's no demand for the grain, which obviously isn't true.

Export would include sea exports of course. Where's the misinformation?

I don't get your point about exports, I think there's some misunderstanding? Misinformation in this case is to claim there's no demand for Ukrainian grain.
But misinformation is rife in the whole discussion and most others in the same topic. As soon as anything about Russia is discussed, we get a spirited comment section telling how well Russia is doing, how West is failing, and how Ukraine would be better off by just voluntarily ceding its lands that actually belonged to Russia all this time anyway.
