29 percent of the population of Armenia are underfed, states the report
of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization. The report states that
Armenia has managed to halve hungry people. The authors of the report
point to the immense number of malnourished people in Uzbekistan and
Tajikistan. These countries and Armenia are included in the list
of countries which are facing serious food security problems. The
experts state that Azerbaijan and Georgia have made considerable
progess in this sphere. There are 700-800 thousand underfed people
in these countries against 2.5 million in 1993-1995.
The UN report states that there are 25 million undernourished people
in the countries with a transitional economy, 21 million live in
the CIS. The worst situation is in Tajikistan, 60 percent of the
population is underfed.
The report states that it will be impossible to bring into being the
goal set in 1996 in the summit of Rome to halve hungry people in the
world by 2015.
