UN Report on Venezuelan Hunger Is a Far Cry From Award Presented Two Years Prior

Two years after honoring Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro for effectively lowering poverty and hunger in the country, the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations is denouncing his policies, which have led to a nationwide food crisis.

“The worsening economic situation in Venezuela could cause a severe shortage of consumer goods, including food and medicine, so food security needs to be monitored,” the 2017 FAO Global Food Crisis Report said,

Despite lacking information that was provided by the rest of the countries, the United Nations decided to include Venezuela on its list of countries that could face a severe food crisis.

Venezuela is in the company of North Korea, Libya, Myanmar and Pakistan.
