UN: food shortages could cause global turmoil

The war in Ukraine has influenced many other delicate situations, making them more critical”, Grandi said after a meeting of EU Development Ministers in Brussels.

Grandi considered the food security crisis, the energy crisis, price hikes and instability as the global consequence of the war in Ukraine.

“If countries are involved in these riots and political fragility, there will be more displacement”, Grandi said, calling for adequate attention to crises in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia.
