Guterres: Iran conflict worsens energy and food crises
The Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, stated that the American Zionist aggression against Iran has led to the transformation of the energy crisis in many developing countries into debt, hunger, and development crises. He pointed out that the repercussions of the conflict in the Middle East have gone beyond the energy sector. He explained that both the climate and energy crises originate from the same source: fossil fuels. He called for accelerating the transition to clean energy sources to promote climate justice and development. According to a report by the World Food Programme, the ongoing crisis could increase the number of hungry people to 363 million across 53 countries by mid-2026.
