KETAHANAN PANGAN DUNIA SEBAGAI DAMPAK PERANG UKRAINA RUSIA BERDASARKAN HUKUM INTERNASIONAL

Abstract

In recent years, the war between Russia and Ukraine has had an impact on countries in
the world that are dependent on the conflicting countries in terms of food security which has
caused a food crisis which has caused world hunger rates to increase and created a situation
of economic and political instability in the world. The right to food is a basic human right
recognized in international, regional and national instruments. Therefore, the research
objectives of this thesis are: first, to determine the impact of world food security as a result of
the Ukraine-Russia war based on international law. Second, to find out the role of International
Law in overcoming food security due to the impact of the Ukraine-Russia war.
The type of research used by the author is normative legal research or what is known as
"legal research". which means that legal research is conceptualized as what is written in the
statutory regulations (law in book) or law.
From the research results, there are two main things that can be concluded. First, the
Ukraine-Russia War has implications for world food security, especially if the fighting involves
areas that are fertile and important for global food production, resulting in the destruction of
agricultural infrastructure, disrupting food production, and causing losses in global supply
chains. This can lead to food shortages and increased food prices throughout the world. In
addition, the war between Ukraine and Russia has an impact on food security that is not limited
to the conflict area, but can spread globally due to economic dependence and international
trade. Second, International Law plays an important role in overcoming the impact of the
Russia-Ukraine war on food security. In this case, humanitarian law is present in upholding
humanitarian principles in war situations, especially in maintaining access to world food for
countries that are food dependent on Ukraine and Russia.
