| ANTÓNIO GUTERRES: "Let us renew our faith in one another" |
|
| Today, I want to make a special appeal to religious leaders of all faiths to join forces to work for peace around the world and focus on our common battle to defeat COVID19.
I do so at a special time on the spiritual calendar.
For Christians, it is the celebration of Easter. Jews are marking Passover. And soon, Muslims will begin the holy month of Ramadan.
I extend my warmest wishes to all those observing these important moments.
