Nepal PM to the UN: We have built a world with flawless logistics for war BALENDRA SHAH Prime Minister of Nepal and broken logistics for food. And this is not Nepal's private misfortune. Ask Bangladesh. Ask Bhutan. BANGLADESH July 12, 2026 Ask India. Ask the Maldives. INDIA Sept. 25, 2026 Ask Pakistan. Ask Sri Lanka. PAKISTAN Sept. 21, 2026 SRI LANKA Nov. 30, 2025 Ask any other country in our region and you'll hear the same account. Hit by the climate we did not warm and again hit by the wars we did not start. The Bhote Koshi disaster was not just a local tragedy. NEPAL Aug. 26, 2026 It was a warning to the world. And I ask you today, have we really heard that warning? The resulting devastation unleashed havoc on both sides of Nepal-China border. The flood continued downstream to India. This tells us something fundamental. NEPAL Aug. 26, 2026 NEPAL Aug. 26, 2026 NEPAL Aug. 26, 2026 NEPAL Aug. 26, 2026 Climate change does not recognize borders. NEPAL Aug. 31, 2026 Glaciers and floods do not travel with stamps and passports. On the other hand, a global supply chain punishes poor people for causes beyond reason. Intercontinental missiles arrive on time, rifles and ammunitions cross borders, clear every bottleneck, meet each deadline. And a world that can deliver a weapon anywhere in 72 hours has no excuse for leaving a farmer without means of decent livelihood. Let us reform the order that leaves the weakest with least power. And when the next warning comes from the rooftop of the world, let us be ready to hear it and ready to act.
