Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment she has made of the impact of the war in Ukraine on countries that receive a high proportion of their wheat imports from Russia, including (a) Sudan, (b) Yemen and (c) other countries in the MENA region.

The unfolding crisis in Ukraine has affected global markets and will further threaten the supply, availability and price of food. The FCDO is working urgently with our partners to better understand the impact of the invasion of Ukraine on food supplies, particularly in humanitarian crisis. The UK continues to provide lifesaving humanitarian support to both Sudan and Yemen.
