Russia's withdrawal from the #BlackSeaGrainInitiative has decreased the supply of grain onto global markets and putting millions of the most vulnerable people at risk of food shortages and starvation.
Russia must renew and abide by the Black Sea Grain Initiative.
Russia has not only abandoned the #BlackSeaGrainInitiative , they are deliberately targeting Ukrainian grain warehouses and granaries - preventing grain reaching those who need it most.
Millions of people on the African continent and beyond are now at risk of extreme hunger because of Russia's withdrawal from the #BlackSeaGrainInitiative . We continue to call on Russia to re-join the BSGI to avoid further shocking global food systems.
#FoodIsNotAWeapon
Russia continues to strike ports that house Ukraine’s grain, ensuring millions of people will go hungry so they can boost profits for their own food exports.
Russia must stop using food as a weapon of war.
Russia must rejoin the #BlackSeaGrainInitiative now.
