UN: ‘We know how much Azerbaijan contributed to the fight against COVID-19’ 

We know how much Azerbaijan itself contributed to the fight against COVID-19 financially, the spokesman for the Secretary-General (SG) of the United Nations (UN), Stéphane Dujarric, said in his interview with Report.

According to him, it was at a time of great difficulty during COVID, and during Azerbaijan’s chairmanship, the NAM took a leading role in the fight against COVID-19: “We are here in the General Assembly building, just a few meters away from where there was a special session on COVID-19 set up by the NAM at the behest of Azerbaijan, which really helped solidify global solidarity in the fight against COVID-19. I think one of the things we learned during COVID was that there was not enough solidarity between the north and the south and the east and the west. The NAM, through its membership and through its ideology and its beliefs, really showed that there could be global solidarity, and we know how much Azerbaijan itself contributed to the fight against COVID-19 financially.”
