ООН предупредила о возможном дефиците продовольствия для 45 миллионов человек из-за блокады Ормуза

Five ships a day or starvation: about 45 million people may face food shortages due to disruptions in the supply of fertilizers through the Strait of Hormuz. The UN said that it is possible to avoid a humanitarian crisis if at least five to seven ships with fertilizers pass through the strait every day. "This will be a crucial factor for developing countries, and they will either ensure food security or face a humanitarian crisis," said Jorge Moreira da Silva, Director of the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Transportation through Hormuz. Da Silva added that the war between the United States and Iran should not be a reason to stop the transit of humanitarian aid. According to the UN, a third of the world's fertilizer trade passes through the Strait of Hormuz, and therefore it is necessary to find a solution to the supply problem as soon as possible, separate from conflict resolution. @izvestia
