Odessa’s port may soon be reopened

ECEP TAYYIP ERDOGAN likes to walk a geopolitical tightrope. In late June Turkey’s president rubbed shoulders with leaders of Western democracies at a NATO summit in Madrid. Three weeks later he glad-handed the rulers of Russia and Iran at a summit of autocracies in Tehran. Now, thanks to this balancing act, he seems on the point of pulling off a remarkable feat: a deal to reopen Ukraine’s ports and export its grain to a hungry world.
