Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Beasley, for being here.
I want to focus on Ukraine and specifically the World Food Programme's efforts there. I saw that the World Food Programme has recently warned that 45% of the people in Ukraine, nearly half its population, are concerned about having enough to eat. It's just weeks since the beginning of Putin's brutal invasion of Ukraine. Can you expand on the situation and give us a clearer picture?
Secondly, can you expand on what the World Food Programme is doing? You noted that it's provided assistance to approximately a million people, which will increase quite significantly over the next several months. I understand that assistance has been provided in places like Kharkiv and Lviv, and that food supplies have also made it into conflict zones.
I'll give you a little bit of time to speak about some of those efforts.
