Ethiopia. where more than 10.2 million people are on the verge of what I would designate as "starvation." yet no one really used that word or used the word "famine" because of the concern that it might provoke a coup. But the reality is that this is the situation on the ground. And at the same time. massive humanitarian disasters in Syria and Yemen. in South Sudan. have sparked these massive refugee flows. They threaten regional security. All told. there are currently 800 million people suffering from chronic hunger. and over 60 million people displaced by conflict. who desperately need our help.
