The World Resources Institute (WRI) issued a statement condemning Russia's February 24, 2022, invasion of Ukraine, highlighting the resulting humanitarian crisis and the potential for the conflict to disrupt global energy and food systems and divert resources from addressing climate change.

• The Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022, has caused widespread destruction and a humanitarian crisis, with the United Nations reporting that over 10 million people have fled their homes.
• The conflict is creating serious disruptions to global food and energy systems and threatens to divert the political will and resources necessary to combat poverty, hunger, and climate change.
