  1. “We reaffirm our support for the joint call from the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization and the World Food Programme to develop coordinated action to supply food and provide financial support to increase agricultural production and keep trade open, as well as the call of the Group of Seven to form a global partnership for food security. Finally, we thank the United States for convening this much-needed open debate.”

  2. “Armed conflicts do not help efforts to mitigate food insecurity, especially when the parties to the conflict do not fulfil their responsibilities with regard to the protection of civilians, ensuring that civilians receive the care they need and that the parties respect their obligations under the universal instruments of human rights law and international humanitarian law. Panama reiterates that the only way to restore international peace and security is through dialogue and negotiation based on respect for the spirit of the Charter of the United Nations and in the interests of peaceful coexistence and respect for multilateralism.”

  3. “We support the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Committee on World Food Security in their initiatives to maintain market access and establish mechanisms for dialogue with different social groups as an agile way to develop joint actions to counteract risk situations. Four years ago, the Security Council adopted resolution 2417 (2018), which noted the link between armed conflict and food insecurity. The resolution also highlighted the importance of responding effectively to the humanitarian needs that emerge as a result of such situations, ensuring respect for international humanitarian law.”

  4. “The impact of the conflict has spread, with the consequences being felt most strongly by low- and middle-income developing countries and the most vulnerable segment of populations, women and children. There was already a critical food security situation before the conflict emerged, in connection with the coronavirus disease pandemic, from which we are still recovering. Food insecurity has deepened as a result of the conflict. It is crucial for us to act quickly and jointly to identify actions to strengthen food production development in our countries, as well as financial and technical cooperation in countries with a higher degree of technological development in the food industry, including in international organizations and the private sector.”

  5. “Ms. Gordón-Owen (Panama) (spoke in Spanish): The Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine is claiming a massive number of lives, destroying critical civilian infrastructure and causing a humanitarian crisis on a scale not seen since the end of the Second World War, including the internal and external displacement of millions of people. One of the most visible consequence of this situation has been a rapid deterioration of food security globally, owing to the importance of both countries as producers and exporters of essential raw materials. Food production, access to energy and essential agricultural inputs have all declined significantly. Supply chains and prices have been affected.”
