At the FAO headquarters in Rome (Italy), a meeting was held between Deputy Minister of Agriculture of the Russian Federation Sergei Levin and Director General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Qu Dongyu.
FAO remains the main organization of the UN system in the field of analysis and assessment of the state of global agricultural production, the development of principles and norms of the industry, as well as the implementation of technical assistance projects in developing countries.
The most important task of the world community today is the fight against hunger and malnutrition. Russia is purposefully working to improve its food system to provide food to the domestic market, and also provides assistance to countries through bilateral cooperation and through the organizations of the UN system. In this direction, FAO remains a reliable partner for Russia.
