According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still -- when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.

Food scarcity is not a production problem. It is a political one.

It's not a production problem it's a logistics problem. It's the ultimate last mile problem. Distributing food across the globe to even remote villages shouldn't be the goal, self sufficiency trumps reliance. Environmental impacts aside, if the US has a problem halting transport for weeks that would result in global starvation of all who rely on the deliveries.
