UN Security Council often politicizes food security issue
Russian Deputy Permanent Representative Anna Yevstigneyeva noticed that "the conflict has clearly worsened the humanitarian situation in Sudan"
"Unfortunately, Security Council started to encounter politicization of food security and humanitarian aspects rather frequently. The Council has no levers to remedy the situation, because it is dealt with by other UN bodies. That is why, at certain times, the atmosphere here gets heated up for political reasons. Quite often this is done in the interests of external players," she said.
