Guterres warns of Corona virus threat to international peace, security

SANAA, April 11 (YPA) – United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has warned of the far-reaching effects of the Covid-19 pandemic that could threaten international peace and security.

Guterres stressed during a closed session of the members of the Security Council through video technology the need for increased solidarity if the world wants to confront this health crisis, which has become the most dangerous test since the founding of this organization.

Guterres said that this time is not a time for political opportunism, expressing his fear that electoral processes will be affected because delaying or starting to vote may raise political tensions and undermine legitimacy.
