“Even before the Ukrainian crisis, we faced an unprecedented global food crisis due to COVID-19 and rising fuel prices. Then we thought it could not get worse, but this war is devastating. This is a very, very scary time. “We face hell on earth if we don’t respond immediately. The best thing we can do now is to end this damn war between Russia and Ukraine and open the ports,” he said. .
According to him, if the crisis is not resolved, it will lead to famine, destabilization and mass migration.
Beasley recalled that after the economic crisis in 2007-2009, unrest erupted in 48 countries around the world as commodity prices and inflation rose. At the same time, economic factors today are “worse than we observed 15 years ago,” the UN representative said.
“We’re already seeing unrest in Sri Lanka and protests in Tunisia, Pakistan and Peru, and we’ve had destabilization in places like Burkina Faso, Mali, Chad … It’s just a sign of things to come,” he said. said Beasley.
The UN receives 40% of its wheat for emergency food aid programs from Ukraine.
As you know, the UN is working on an agreement that includes unblocking the export of Ukrainian grain by sea, as well as access to world markets for Russian food and fertilizers . Negotiations to unblock Ukrainian grain have so far been unsuccessful.
