Secretary-General's remarks at the launch of the second brief by the Global Crisis Response Group [as delivered]

Ladies and gentlemen of the press, thank you very much for your presence. 
 
Let me begin by also thanking Rebeca Grynspan and the Global Crisis Response Group for this latest brief on how the war in Ukraine, in all its dimensions, is affecting people around the world.  
 
Today’s report makes clear that the war’s impact on food security, energy and finance is systemic, severe, and speeding up.
