Poverty figures for the year 2022 are worrying. due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the
recent crises caused by the war in Ukraine. some 198 million people were expected to enter
extreme poverty, but thanks to rising prices and increasing external debt, there will be some
260 million people in extreme poverty by 2022; It is also worrying that countries are more
concerned about paying debts than about getting food for their population, fortunes are
being concentrated in the hands of a few who have no intention of using their fortunes to
help the neediest, the poor are getting poorer and the richest have considerably increased
their fortunes in these pandemic scenarios, This invites us to reflect on the actions of
governments and organizations such as the UN, the International Monetary Fund, to mitigate
this problem, because it would be a figure never seen before, as the article says, the
pandemic was the previous crisis to the catastrophe that millions of people live today.
