Top US, China and Russia diplomats urge global cooperation

UNITED NATIONS -- The top diplomats from the United States, China and Russia urged strengthened global cooperation on Friday, recognizing the need to tackle growing global challenges and an unprecedented pandemic but sparring over their different worldviews and who's to blame for threats to multilateralism.

 

The high-level U.N. Security Council meeting marked the first joint appearance, albeit virtually, by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and his rival counterparts, Foreign Ministers Sergey Lavrov of Russia and Wang Yi, of China who chaired the session as this month's council president.

 

Despite major differences especially on human rights and democracy, all three said they were ready to cooperate with all countries to address international challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change to ending conflicts and helping people in need.

Hope it's actually TRUE

this time. 🙄

At any rate, it sounds more promising than declaring 2021 as the year of fruits and vegetables.😁

Although the might make some progress, they will push one another to the end.
