US Senate proposes to recognize Russia's actions aimed at creating a threat of global hunger as a war crime. This is stated in the resolution, which was published the day before by American legislators from the Democratic and Republican parties..

The document condemns the actions of Russia blocking Ukrainian ports, which makes it impossible to export grain to other countries. According to one of the main initiators of the project, Democratic Senator Robert Menendez, the deliberate creation of a food crisis that affects civilians is a war crime..

“Putin continues to show the world his promiscuity by blockading Ukrainian ports and destroying the agricultural sector, trying to starve those Ukrainians who survived his indiscriminate bombing. And I am proud to share this resolution with my colleagues to reaffirm our commitment to supporting humanitarian efforts and responding to the crisis.. We must stand together to confront the challenges in the global supply chain and bring to justice the despot who uses hunger as a weapon of war,” Menendez said..

Other Democrats and Republicans also noted the need to bring those responsible for creating the famine to justice, and also called on the US president to publicly condemn Putin's use of a man-made food crisis as a weapon of war.. The resolution also notes that the United States will actively help those countries that are at risk of famine..
