In July 2021, the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) issued a report on food security in the world. According to the report, every tenth man in the world is starving.
In Russia, about 400 thousand inhabitants are in the conditions of “extreme vulnerability”, that is, they are forced to skip meals, limit the amount of food or not at all. 8.4 million Russians belong to the group of "moderate vulnerability". They do not refuse food, but save on it and buy low -quality products. According to these calculations, the number of Russians experiencing food problems exceeds the population of the Moscow region. However, in percentage, our country is in leaders in terms of food security.
What is the reason for this contradiction and how many Russians actually live behind the poverty line?
Slue down to find out the answers to these questions.
