Global food prices have remained close to record highs in June, in part due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

We speak with Ukrainian-American Anna Nagurney, Chair in Integrative Studies at the Isenberg School of Management at The University of Massachusetts - Amherst and board member at the Kyiv School of Economics, about the latest on Russia’s blockade of Ukrainian food exports, and how it is affecting global food prices and supply.
