MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 03rd December, 2020) President of the European Council Charles Michel suggested an international agreement on fight against epidemics in his address to the 31st UN General Assembly.
"With a view to future pandemics, we now need to build on this approach structuring our collective capacity to anticipate, prepare for and manage such crises. I propose that we do so through an international treaty on pandemics. Such a treaty should be agreed within the framework of the World Health Organization, which is the cornerstone of international cooperation against pandemics," Michel said in a pre-recorded address.
