They obviously meant famines in the location that is being discussed. Why would they be talking about worldwide famines? How would a famine in South America be relevant to the Soviets?

The famine of the 19xx scale is the “world-grade” event.

There were just few of such magnitude in the entire world in all of our knowledge.
