AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Hunger as a weapon: A new study by Insecurity Insight says “food-related violence” has surged since 2018, recording 21,403 incidents across 15 countries, including attacks on markets and food distribution systems—with Haiti named among places where civilians are deliberately starved. World Cup spotlight on Haiti: As the tournament nears, Haiti’s place in Group C is set—Brazil, Morocco, Haiti, Scotland—and coverage is already buzzing around the June 14 opener. Immigration pressure around the games: In the U.S., advocates warn that the World Cup could become a flashpoint for immigration enforcement, with some immigrant communities—like New York’s “Little Haiti”—reporting quieter streets and closed businesses ahead of matches. Sports business ripple: Separate from Haiti, Rangers’ push for striker Lawrence Shankland highlights how FIFA release payments can turn transfers into instant cash windfalls.
