EU German development minister says world may face worst famine since WW2 - Accelerate

The coronavirus pandemic, drought and the crisis unfolding in Ukraine are pushing food prices to record highs and threatening the world with the worst famine since World War 2, German Minister for Economic Development and Cooperation Svenja Schulze said on Sunday.

“The World Food Programme (WFP) believes that more than 300 million people are now suffering from acute hunger, and the projections constantly have to be adjusted upward. The unpleasant message is that we are threatened with the worst famine since World War 2, with millions of victims,” Schulze told the German newspaper Bild.

According to the minister, food prices have already climbed by one-third worldwide, reaching record levels.


The WFP has warned that the conflict in Ukraine will lead to spiralling food prices and exacerbate hunger across the world, due to disrupted supply chains and derailed crop production. Such regions as Africa and the Middle East may suffer the most, being heavily dependent on cheap grain exports, with a total of 811 million people worldwide exposed to the risk of malnutrition.

Ukraine is a key global grain producer, accounting for 9 per cent of the world’s wheat exports, 13.5 per cent of corn and 70 per cent of sunflower products, therefore any disruption in supplies drives prices up, resulting in growing food insecurity across the world.

The WFP said on Friday that for eight months before the hostilities broke out, the now-blocked Ukrainian seaport of Odesa has transited enough crops to feed 400 million people. (ANI/Sputnik)

This of course had nothing to do with the covid shakedowns and massive wealth transfer.

 

[Glad I couldn't help]

Interesting that the article didn't mention sanctions against Russia, itself a major food exporter.

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

Then let Africa and Asia bite the bullet. And none of us will lose much sleep over dead homeless in our countries.

 

[Unyielding Stupidity]

Gee, maybe if you didn't decide that the entire "free" world had to sanction Russia for daring to attack your money laundromat, the food price issue wouldn't be so severe.

 

[Kochmess]

Good. There are way to many niggers anyway, if they can't even feed themselves, then they don't deserve to live. Nature's law.

Interesting that the article didn't mention sanctions against Russia, itself a major food exporter.

And that Russia is THE major exporter of fertilizer.
There is also the "climate" policies of the last decade and ofc the results of the corona policies that crippled several industrialized countries.
Enough potential for the biggest world economic clusterfuck since the 1920s.
Atleast most European countries have the possibility to use their untended farming land that was discontinued from use because of globalism.
Countries that are dependent on first world gibs are going to get shafted hard.

You do understand that they're going to try to get to Europe and the US in this case, right? Food security for those countries is good because that way you get fewer refugees looking for food.

They literally mentioned Covid in the first line. xD

They mentioned the pandemic. Not that the lockdowns were there to extract as much wealth from plebs as possible.

This was always the plan, they expect me to care and feel worried when they created this situation for their own gain. They are going to kill way more than the 6 million the "pandemic" killed through their policies and use it as some excuse to push more insane policies. Expect rapefugees. Expect more artificially high food prices since they're shipping it all to Africa. Expect your money to be used to start/prolong wars globally just like it's doing in Ukraine now. The people in charge of the world who put this clueless minister in their position know exactly what they're doing, and laugh as an 8-digit number of people die for the sake of their plan.

Interesting that the article didn't mention sanctions against Russia, itself a major food exporter.

It's part of their propaganda to blame everything on Russia, never mind that this has been warned about since we decided to fuck up the supply chain with nonsensical lockdowns for the last two years.

You do understand that they're going to try to get to Europe and the US in this case, right? Food security for those countries is good because that way you get fewer refugees looking for food.

Exactly. It's all just according to plan for these people.

Joke's on them, I've been acting like an African every time I go to the Costco.

 

[Kheapathic]

The Germans may be short on food, but how's their supply of delousing agent?

 

[Chaos Theorist]

Whats the farming situation with China? Could they start exporting rice?

Whats the farming situation with China? Could they start exporting rice?

Their arable land is all but tapped out by 2000+ years of continuous cultivation. They are a net importer of foodstuffs and fertilizers.

Whats the farming situation with China? Could they start exporting rice?

China is the 4th largest food exporter in the world but they are the 2nd largest food importer as well.

Maybe Weimar problems need Austrian solutions.

So the countries that allows the niggers are free to starve to death, since they are clearly too dumb to exist.

 

[Cincinnatus]

I believe that feudalism is the natural state of mankind and what we are seeing is simply a return to it. Most people don't want freedom or rights because it requires you to make difficult decisions and accept the consequences of your actions. I think the age of democracy is almost over.
