近日,联合国举行庆祝75周年纪念活动,受新冠疫情影响,这是全球领导人首次以线上形式庆祝此活动。联合国大会于15日开幕,会期持续一周。
The UN has reiterated its mantra that "multilateralism is not an option but a necessity," and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres urged members to work together, as COVID-19 challenges the effectiveness and solidarity of the international organisation.

Xi made the remark in a video speech delivered at a high-level meeting in honor of the UN's 75th anniversary. "No country has the right to dominate global affairs, control the destiny of others or keep advantages in development all to itself," Xi said.
