Social Comment: Who is "grabbing rice bowls" or even "smashing rice bowls" around the world

Author:Global Times Time:2022.07.30

Recently, senior officials in charge of multilateral affairs in the United States in charge of international development cooperation have accused China of accumulating food, pushing up the prices of food, exacerbating the global food crisis, and no reason to attack China's foreign aid policies. The US Senate also organized the "Global Grain Crisis and the United States Copper" hearings, accusing other countries and applying fat for themselves. In fact, behind the accusations of the beautiful appearance is that with the position of grain hegemony, it has always "grabbing rice bowls", "grabbing rice bowls", and even "smashing rice bowls" in the world. There are American figures behind the global food crisis, and this time is no exception.

The United States and other countries have tried to control the world's rice bowl by manipulating the global food trade system. As the world's first agricultural power, the United States restricts the exports of food in other countries and seriously crack down on the global normal grain trade; consumption of food to produce biofuels and cause a serious impact on global food supply. After the outbreak of the Russian and Ukraine conflict, the United States abused unilateral sanctions, further exacerbating regional conflicts, triggering global food shortages, and was unspeakable to the global grain crisis.

Since the Cold War, the United States has formulated a bill for "conditional" to assist food to developing countries. For example, for non -grain aid, these countries are required to abandon grain planting and change to produce non -agricultural crops such as bananas and cocoa, so that they will lose their ability to self -suffer food. For another example, the Youdao project can be recovered at any time on the grounds of "harm to the interests of the United States". The US assistants can enjoy the "external law", and the project agreement is better than the domestic law of the aid country. The attached clauses also intervene in the system and policy framework, regulatory environment and personnel capabilities of developing countries, and openly interfere with other domestic politics.

In recent years, the United States has continued to throw various initiatives, involving food safety, infrastructure, hygiene, climate change and other fields, and promised to aid as high as hundreds of billions of dollars. However, the door is high, and it is difficult to land, which has become a "empty rice bowl". The US food aid in the United States has returned a large amount of funds to the country and foreign aid personnel and institutions, and the people who really benefit the people of the recipients are less than half of the aid. Studies have shown that in the expenditure of each US dollar of food assistance, only 0.35 to 0.40 US dollars are actually used for food assistance for hungry people.

The United States created a crisis by itself, but wanted to let China come back. But the fact is that, as a responsible country, in addition to losing its own rice bowls to ensure that the Chinese people eat, it also sincerely helps the majority of developing countries "stable rice bowls". China has actively carried out international development cooperation to contribute to the promotion of human welfare and building a community of human destiny.

China has achieved about 1/4 of the world's grain output with less than 9 % of the world's arable land, and has supported the world's population. Since 2015, China's grain output has stabilized more than 1.3 trillion kg for 7 consecutive years. It is the world's largest food production country and the third largest food exporter. The Chinese have tied the rice bowl in their own hands, and they are the greatest contribution to global food security. Recently, Wang Yi's State Councilor and Foreign Minister attended the International Grain Security Cooperation initiative proposed by the Foreign Minister of the Group of the Guto 20 in Bali, providing a Chinese plan for solving the current world food issues.

Since 2016, China has provided emergency food assistance to more than 50 countries. These grain assistance is mainly on bilateral channels to ensure that every penny is spent on people who need help. The Chinese not only delivered food, but also sent "rice bowls". By assisting the construction of agricultural technology demonstration centers, grain storage and processing infrastructure, etc., he provided agricultural technical assistance such as hybrid rice, bacteria grass, and sent agricultural technical experts to carry out agricultural technical human resources development. Cooperation and other methods, comprehensively enhance the capacity of food production, supply and guarantee in developing countries, and fundamentally help countries in lack of grain to improve grain supply toughness. China has launched agricultural cooperation with more than 140 countries and regions, promoting more than 1,000 agricultural technology to the majority of developing countries, and driving the average production of crops in the project area by 30 % -60 %.

China is a developing country with the most aid funds for the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization South -South cooperation framework, the most experts sent, and the most projects. China supports the World Grain Program in China to set up a global humanitarian emergency warehouse and hub to add grain to the "world rice bowl"; establish a South -South Cooperation Trust Fund with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and provide funding to help developing countries improve poverty reduction, agricultural production and agricultural production and Grain safety guarantee capabilities. At the same time, China has fully implemented the G20 to suspend the most poor national debt payment initiative.

China is a reliable partner of the United Nations and the majority of developing countries in the field of grain security, an important force to maintain the world's food security, and a positive contributor to the world's sustainable development. The United States should reflect on its own colorful role in the global grain crisis, and play a constructive role in solving global grain security problems and promoting world peace and development.
