 [Emergency check] ‘Corona 19′ to North Korea –Food security this year ’emergency’ amid economic crisis (Radio Free Asia) 

April 02, 2020


Radio Free Asia (Korea) reported on the COVID-19 emergency and the impact on food security. Senior Research Fellow Joseph Glauber stated that “free exports to Asia were limited due to short export restrictions in each country, and the world’s grain inventory was richer than in the past food crisis of 2007-2008. It is more important that other countries do not chain export restrictions.”
