Beijing: The United Nations has expressed deep concern about the conflicts arising between Russia-Ukraine, Israel-Hamas, Israel-Hezbollah, the war between Israel and Iran and the conflict between South Korea and North Korea, the tension between China and Taiwan and other Middle Eastern countries. Ongoing global conflicts are hampering the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a senior UN official has said. This situation is a cause of concern not for any particular country but for the entire world.

The UN coordinator for China, during his speech at the 79th UN Day on Tuesday, said that there are around 80 conflicts around the world, which are not only expanding but also hindering the achievement of the goals of the SDG. “Nearly 80 ongoing conflicts around the world are expanding, and poverty and hunger are increasing as inequality increases,” said Chatterjee, a National Defense Academy alumnus who served in India’s peacekeepers in Sri Lanka and has been involved in. anti-insurgency operations in northeast India. “The challenging global situation is hindering the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals,” he stated.

The conflict increased hunger

In addition to sustainable development, the United Nations is also concerned about hunger. The UN said thousands of people are becoming victims of hunger due to wars and conflicts. It is increasingly difficult for help to reach them. This is a very dangerous situation.
