The UN General Assembly approved a resolution calling for “international cooperation” and “multi-lateralism” in the fight against Covid-19, in the first text to come out of the international body since the outbreak began, AFP reported.
The resolution, approved by consensus, also stresses “the need for full respect for human rights” and that “there is no place for any form of discrimination, racism and xenophobia in the response to the pandemic”.
The UN resolution emphasises the central role of the body in the global health and economic crisis.
