From the Strait of Hormuz to the Red Sea and Black Sea, conflict is disrupting global trade and threatening to push millions more people into hunger.
At the UN Security Council, Acting @WFPChief Carl Skau warns how an oil tanker anchored in the Strait of Hormuz can mean one less meal a day for a child in Sudan. ⤵️

WFP's Serigne Loum explains ⤵️
The world needs the United Nations, but right now the United Nations needs the world too.
Today, I stressed in my speech that my main priority for the next 237 days as President of the General Assembly is to defend the United Nations, its Charter, and the principles enshrined in it. To preserve the UN and save multilateralism, we need to be decisive, principled, and #BetterTogether.
