It was reported that the countries and regions benefitting from this year\u2019s US$130 million supplementary funding were; Afghanistan, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cabo Verde, Central African Republic, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Djibouti, Egypt, Eswatini, Ethiopia, Jordan, Iraq, Kenya, Lebanon, Lesotho, Libya, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Moldova, Mozambique, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Gambia, Somalia, South Sudan, Sri Lanka, Syria, Tanzania, Uganda, Ukraine, Yemen, Zimbabwe. It was reported that Japan had consistently been one of WFP\u2019s top donors. The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) had reportedly welcomed a contribution of around US$130 million from the Government of Japan.<\/p>\n<p><b>Support<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Japanese support comes at a critical time when needs are skyrocketing amid a food crisis of unprecedented proportions,\u201d said Naoe Yakiya, Director of the WFP Japan Relations Office. Yakiya added that as WFP, they were grateful for this generous contribution, which would enable them to save and change the lives of the most vulnerable people, who were pushed to the brink. The United Nations WFP is the world\u2019s largest humanitarian organisation, saving lives in emergencies and using food assistance to build a pathway to peace, stability and prosperity for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Over US$19.1 million will be allocated to provide emergency food assistance in Ukraine, where the war that erupted in February last year continues to displace people, damage infrastructure, disrupt supply chains and hold back the country\u2019s economy. In Afghanistan, a contribution of US$12.4 million will be used to provide emergency food and nutrition assistance to acutely food insecure people facing a severe economic crisis compounded by earthquakes, droughts and other climate shocks. By providing over US$13.9 million to Myanmar, Japan is supporting WFP to respond to increasing humanitarian needs across the country affected by the political and economic crisis. When sought for comment, the Deputy Prime Minister\u2019s Office Communications Officer Mihla Khumalo said his office had not yet been informed about these developments yet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
