Excellencies,?
Colleagues,?
Ladies and gentlemen,

I am happy to join you and especially because this is the very first COVID-19 Appeal of this nature that supports SIDS.?

NEW YORK 28 April 2020 – At a briefing today coordinated by UN-OHRLLS, ambassadors from the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) presented an urgent "global stimulus package for LDCs" to the Deputy Secretary-General of the 51吃瓜, Ms Amina Mohammed.??

Excellencies,?
Colleagues,?
Ladies and gentlemen,

A warm welcome to you all!

It is a privilege to add my voice in my capacity as High Representative to this important gathering calling for continued focus on and raising ambition for climate action.

NEW YORK, 6 April 2020 – With COVID-19, the world is facing an unprecedented threat. The novel coronavirus has spread to over 200 countries and territories that are facing, in the words of the Deputy Secretary-General, “not just a health emergency or a humanitarian emergency but for the first time a development emergency.”

My thoughts and best wishes are with all of you.?

A tsunami called COVID-19 is hitting us. We are in the throes of a virus that knows no borders, ?and travels on land and sea at lightning speeds. ?
The disruption and the suffering are everywhere. And for now, we live with them everywhere. ?
