STATEMENT: WFP is deeply concerned by recent notifications from the US administration indicating that funding for emergency food assistance in 14 countries has been terminated. 🔵If implemented, this could amount to a death sentence for millions of people facing extreme hunger and starvation. We are in contact with the US administration to seek clarification and to urge for continued support for these life-saving programmes. 🔵WFP is grateful for the contributions it receives from the US and all its donors. Our staff continue to work tirelessly to reach vulnerable communities with vital food assistance in hunger hot spots around the world.
