00:28internationally agreed to rules by the World Trade Organization
00:32Which provides stability and certainty for the global economy? I
00:37Mean, we you know, we we are in touch with our various agencies on the ground
00:42Some of this is having immediate impact on

01:0347% of the global humanitarian appeal
01:07Which amounts up to about 14?
01:10billion
01:1214 billion dollars
01:15There's obviously a lot of
01:17UN US participation in development
01:21issues
01:23We are trying to kind of get some more granular
01:27Examples of the impact to be able to share to share with you
