Speaking to reporters by video link the frustration of the u. N. Secretary general is clear its well over a month since he demanded a global cease fire but the fact the u. N. Security council has been unable to pass a resolution that was the result of what he called a dysfunctional relationship between the major palace and that makes it difficult for the Security Council to decide as it makes it difficult in many other areas for International Cooperation to work secretarygeneral given the scale of the pandemic do you believe that Global Leadership has been adequate. It is obvious that there is a lack of leadership it is all is obvious the International Community is divided in a moment where it would be more important than ever to be united there is indeed a problem of leadership or if you want a disconnect between leadership and poll we see that remarkable examples of leadership but they are usually not associated with bollard and then we see power we sometimes do not see the necessary to the ship i hope this will be overcome sooner rather than later as a Security Council session this week a very public demonstration of the disagreements among the worlds Top Countries as the un Syria Special envoy spoke during the Virtual Event one of the ambassadors had not me to this microphone in ukraine my counsel.

Then obviously you will not hesitate. To start or restricting and thats one of the things that we want to avoid it any version of a new normal will also be a challenge logistically miami is a hub for the distribution of goods throughout the americas and restarting trade will be difficult its very complicated. And its a critical its essential for us to understand what steps in jail and how people interact with others while some can now carefully enjoy the states parks restaurants and beaches others remain under tight restrictions the reopening of some parts of the economy and continued closure of others is mostly in the hands of local leaders and the decisions are more crucial than ever and a gala crowd is there a miami florida.
