KYIV, Nov 27 – Russia has already stolen grain worth about $1 billion from the occupied territories of Ukraine, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said at the second international summit Grain from Ukraine in Kyiv on Saturday.

"The occupiers have prepared the technical means to steal and export 12,000 tons of grain from the occupied territories daily.

However, the amount of stolen goods is impressive - millions of tons of grain worth about $1 billion," Shmyhal said.
