Now the United Nations is appealing for 2000000000. 00 to support humanitarian efforts worldwide to fight the pandemic in an exclusive interview with our diplomatic editor james space secretary general antonio terrace says its in everyones interest to help the worlds or its nations especially in areas of conflict. Well this is exactly an appeal for that it is a humanitarian appeal for those countries in conflict for those fragile states for refugee camps its always placement camps that have that emetic humanitarian needs that need to go on being met but on top of that the surete of coffee at 19 and you need to do everything to prevent the disease to come to those areas to the extent possible and at the same time in those areas you have people sometimes in slums of big cities or in camps in which its very difficult to have isolation there is no water in the households and sometimes no soap else care facilities are extremely rugged mentary so we need to boost to the response capacity in those areas thats why we have asked and we mobilized all u. N. Agencies that have trust with president movement large number of n. G. O. S we mobilized all to Work Together and with those funds with those 2000000000. 00 to make sure that we are able to. Ever strong push for prevention in those vulnerable areas and at the same time to bring the equipment to that is required the ventilator stass the suits are for the the stuff to allow for contact with people packed it youve called for a global ceasefire are in conflict zones but let me give you a couple of examples in recent weeks things have been going in the opposite direction in some of those conflicts let me ask you how worried you are about the increase in hostilities in yemen well i am even if one of the most important movements in yemen has declared that they would accept this ceasefire or that the appeal of ceasefire and we have other arms movements in other parts of the world saying that they would be ready to abide by it all our special report are these and invoiced everyone in the world are pushing to make sure that these it believes there is lady in the poem at the action bringing together the parties to the conflict for the ceasefire to become a reality we have he should lives in syria and yeah man in libya and very in many other parts of the world and i hope that these appeal will be heard then that people will understand that there is only one was that is necessary today its a war against the vibes you mention libya that there was already supposed to be a humanitarian pours in libya but one side has not been respecting it general half the in recent weeks seems to have intensified his campaign whats your message to him its necessary to stop and i believe that in the last few days there was a clear the cookies and i was the early days even if even the day before yesterday there was a very meaningful attack but this is the moment to stop all military action these is the moment to concentrate on fighting cause 1000 were already seeing covert 1000 cases in garza you being there you know its one of the most crowded places on earth how were you supposed to self isolate if youre someone living in a place like guards. Well it is extremely difficult but the same applies to the slums of big cities in different parts of the world to refugee camps it is much more difficult and that is the reason why we massively need support for those areas and we massive need to increase the capacity to respond and they all services that are so weak in those areas need to be very quickly bills that.
