“Tajikistan will suffer from poverty and a sharp increase in unemployment. The total amount of Tajikistan's external debt exceeds $3bn. If the Russian economy drops, the crisis will break out in our country as well. We will not be able to pay off these debts. The only way that we can minimise the consequences of the crisis in Tajikistan is the adoption of the ruble system in Tajikistan by joining the Eurasian Customs Union and trading in roubles.”

“Politics is for serving the citizens and solving the problems of citizens. Unfortunately, the palace [of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan] forgot both the citizens and their problems. Citizens are imprisoned by poverty. The government continuously increases prices of almost everything, including electricity, gas, petroleum, taxes and fees. The high cost of living is making citizens poorer.”

“In a country already devastated by the twin crises of war and COVID-19, the desperate lack of dollars in the market is leaving importers unable to pay for their shipments. Food is becoming scarce and grocery stores are unable to fully restock. As prices rise, people are rushing to withdraw and spend their savings before the banking sector collapses. Private businesses are not able to fund operations, shutting down and laying off the privileged few who still have jobs. A growing number of Afghans are suffering from hunger, poverty, and a lack of access to basic goods and services. In short, the country is in a total humanitarian crisis.”

“How we exit this global emergency is up to us. It could be more of the same: violent economies in which billionaire wealth booms, inequality is ever-deadlier and self-defeating greed reigns. Or, if we demand it, there could be profound change: economies centred on equality in which nobody lives in poverty, nor with unimaginable billionaire wealth, in which inequality no longer kills… in which hope reigns.”

“We ended the longest war in US history, yet Congress just passed a $768 BILLION defense budget - more than the military budgets of the next 11 countries combined. Don't tell me we can't afford to fight poverty, cancel student debt, pass paid leave, and defeat the climate crisis.”

“There a number of reasons why this has the potential to be an historic election for Honduras. Many people feel hungry for change after 12 years of single-party rule. Many people see the ruling National Party as being endemically corrupt, leading to worsening poverty in the country.”

“I have worked for around 15 years in various media outlets. My job was directing and programming and I worked for 10 years at Khurshid TV. After I lost my job, and with the increased level of poverty and misery in our country, with the little money that I had I bought this cart to work and be prepared for the winter.”

“Ortega [Daniel Ortega] has no instrument to reverse the political crisis, the international isolation and the social expressions of the crisis, such as unemployment, underemployment and poverty. Ortega only has repression and repression is not enough to indefinitely subdue the rejection of the population.”

“Australia is not and has never been in the economic containment camp on China. No country has pulled more people out of poverty than China. And Australia is pleased to have played our role in the economic emancipation of millions of Chinese through the development of the Chinese economy. Australia desires an open, transparent and mutually beneficial relationship with China as our largest trading partner.”

“We are projecting a somewhat less severe though still deep recession in 2020, relative to our June forecast. The revision is driven by second-quarter GDP outturns in large advanced economies, which were not as negative as we had projected. The poor are getting poorer with over 90 million people expected to fall into extreme poverty just this year. Policies for the next stage of the crisis must see lasting improvements and create a prosperous future for all.”
