Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday he wanted grain from Russia to be exported too, and Russian President Vladimir Putin was right about grains exported from Ukraine under a U.N.-backed deal going to wealthy countries, not poor ones.

Speaking at a news conference with his Croatian counterpart, Erdogan said Putin was uncomfortable with these grains going to countries that sanction Russia.

On Wednesday, Putin floated adding limits to Ukrainian grain exports.
