UN: World leaders back to the United Nations in New York this week with a focus to increase efforts to combat both climate change and pandemic Covid-19, which last year forced them to send an annual statement for the annual meeting.
When a coronavirus is still observing the launch of the vaccine is not fair, about a third of the 193 UN countries are planning to re-send the video, but the president, prime minister and foreign minister to travel to the United States.
United States tried to prevent the leaders from coming to New York in an attempt to stop the UN General Assembly to be “super spreaders event,” although President Joe Biden will address the assembly directly, visited the United Nations since taking office.
The so-called UN honors system means that anyone who enters the Hall assembly are effectively stating they were vaccinated, but they do not have to show proof.
This system will be damaged when the first state to speak – Brazil.
President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro is a vaccine skeptic, who last week stated that he does not need to be shot because he already immune after infection Covid-19.
If he changes his mind, New York City has set up a van outside the United Nations this week to supply a free test and free photos of vaccines single dose of Johnson & Johnson.
UN chief Antonio Guterres told Reuters that the discussions about how many diplomats travel may be immunized illustrated “how dramatic inequality today in connection with the vaccination.” He pushed global plan to vaccinate 70% of the world during the first half of next year.
Of the 5.7 billion doses of vaccine given worldwide Coronavirus, only 2% have been in Africa.
Biden will host a virtual meeting of Washington with leaders and chief executives on Wednesday that aims to increase global vaccine distribution.
Showed US concerns about Covid 19th UN meeting, Biden will be in New York only for about 24 hours, met with Guterres on Monday and made his first UN address on Tuesday, immediately after Bolsonaro.
His UN envoy, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, said Biden will “speak with our main priority: ending the pandemic Covid-19; combating climate change …
and defend human rights, democracy, and rule-based international order.” Because a pandemic, a UN delegation is limited to a much smaller amount, and most of the events on the sidelines will be a virtual or virtual hybrid and direct.
Among other topics expected to be discussed during the week are Afghanistan and Iran.
But before starting his annual speech, British Prime Minister Guterres and Boris Johnson will start the week with a summit on Monday to try and salvage the UN Summit – which started in Glasgow, Scotland, on 31 October – of failure.
When scientists warn that global warming is very close to spinning out of control, the UN conference COP26 climate action aims to squeeze far more ambitious and money to go with it from participants around the world.
“It’s time to read the alarm bell,” Guterres told Reuters last week.
“We are at the brink of the abyss.”
