As the Russian invasion of Ukraine intensifies, the head of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) says it is crucial to secure humanitarian access to Ukrainian towns and cities under heavy bombardment.
Samantha Power said on Thursday that humanitarian aid is already being amassed for Ukraine, but that the international community must be ready to press Russia to allow that assistance through as the fighting rages.
“The big issue of modern conflict – as you know in places like Syria, Yemen, elsewhere and Ethiopia most dramatically – is access,” Power said during a virtual address to the German Marshall Fund of the United States think-tank.
