According to the details India is continuously violating and ceasefire is facing the damage on Pakistan’s side.

UN Chief asks countries in conflicts to ceasefire

Earlier on April 3, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Friday improved his call for a global ceasefire.

Guterres urges all parties to conflict to lay down arms and allow war-torn nations to combat the coronavirus outbreak.

The UN chief said, in a virtual press conference, “We know the pandemic is having profound social, economic and political consequences, including relating to international peace and security.”

He told reporters, “Religious leaders – including Pope Francis – have added their moral voice in support of a global ceasefire, as have citizens through grassroots mobilization online.”

Today’s threats – from #COVID19 to the climate crisis – require a global response through multilateral cooperation.

That is what the @UN continues to provide even, and especially, in these trying times.
