UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday stated that “diplomatic arsenals” are wanted for peace not solely in Ukraine but additionally in different components of the world which might be dealing with conflicts.
Guterres’ remarks got here after he obtained the Carlos V European Award at a ceremony presided over by the King of Spain Felipe VI on the Monastery of Yuste.
“We must work to make peace and to keep it, every day, tirelessly. In a world that is tearing itself apart, we must heal divisions, prevent escalation and listen to grievances,” Guterres stated. “Instead of bullets, we need diplomatic arsenals.”
“The time has also come to put equality at the center of our work. Equality among communities. Equality of citizens,” he added.
The UN chief stated that he’s “deeply moved” by receiving the award on Europe Day.
