India Calls for Global Cooperation to Protect Sea Lanes Amid Food Security ConcernsPreviousNext

India urged the international community at a UN Security Council debate to safeguard critical sea lanes, emphasizing their importance for uninterrupted movement of food, fertilisers, and fuel. India's Permanent Representative highlighted that conflicts cause widespread disruptions beyond immediate areas, severely impacting food security, especially in import-dependent developing countries. India called for the Council to prioritize mitigating humanitarian consequences by facilitating safe humanitarian access, supporting de-confliction, and ensuring sanctions do not hinder aid or trade. It also stressed that building resilient food systems remains primarily a national responsibility.
