UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres has proposed to Russian President Vladimir Putin that he extend a deal allowing the safe Black Sea export of grain from Ukraine in return for connecting a subsidiary of Russia's agricultural bank to the SWIFT system.
The UN is successful in it primary role. It is a forum to keep people talking instead of having a nuclear war.
It's definitely a forum and that's it. And we do need it like I said. But whenever they pretend they're anything else it gets awkward. Not up to the UN to give Rússia swift access.
