"We are already in a period when the world faces different problems. We have to find a way out of the Ukraine crisis and pandemics. At the same time, we should make efforts regarding energy and inflation," said President of the Republic of Albania Ilir Meta at an opening ceremony of the IX Global Baku Forum on "Threats to the Global Order", APA reports.

Albanian President has noted that the Russian-Ukrainian war can cause a food crisis: "23 million people will suffer from famine. The Black Sea ports should be opened and they should play a role in food safety. Lives of 23 million people depend on it."
