Robert Wood, Deputy Spokesman of the US Department State said during a press briefing that food security is a priority to Secretary Clinton.

Asked what America plans to do on the worsening food situation in East Africa Mr Wood replied that the matter is of big concern to the United States.

He explained that the US is trying to provide resources not only direct on a bilateral level, but also by supporting international organizations.

The spokesman points out that it will take more than resources from the United States to address the problem. He calls for the assistance of other nations in order to deal with the serious food security problem in Africa.
