(Reuters) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has warned that Russia’s recent attacks on port infrastructure reflect Moscow’s intention to cause a “global catastrophe” by destabilizing food markets and causing disruptions in prices and supplies. Zelenskiy addressed this issue in his nightly video message.
Zelenskiy emphasized that the conflict is not just about Ukraine’s freedom and sovereignty but rather a broader battle with dire implications for the global community. “Moscow is waging a battle for a global catastrophe. In their madness, they need world food markets to collapse, they need a price crisis, they need disruptions in supplies,” he stated.
The attacks on Ukrainian port infrastructure have raised concerns about the stability of global food markets as well as potential price escalations and supply chain disruptions. Zelenskiy’s remarks highlight the severity of the situation and the risks it poses to international food security.
The Ukrainian President’s statement comes amidst ongoing tensions between Ukraine and Russia, with the latter facing allegations of aggression and territorial incursions. The attacks on port infrastructure have further escalated these tensions and raised concerns about the potential consequences on a global scale.
As the situation continues to unfold, the international community is closely monitoring the developments and assessing the potential impact on food markets and supplies. The need for stability, cooperation, and de-escalation is of utmost importance to prevent further disruptions.
