World War centenary in Paris: When nations work together, hope prevails,UN says

United Nations, Nov 12 (UNI) From conflict and economic downturn to disease and climate change, global problems require 'more than ever' a strengthening of international cooperation, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres told world leaders at the Paris Peace Forum, commemorating 100 years since the end of the First World War.
“Over the past 100 years, the desire to settle conflicts peacefully on the basis of common rules has been converted into a universal system of institutions in the political, economic, social and environmental spheres,” said the UN chief.
“The horror of those great global conflicts cannot be forgotten… But horror must never prevail over hope,” he stated in his opening remarks for the Forum. “It was that same hope that gave rise to the development of multilateralism in the twentieth century,” referring to the creation of the League of Nations in 1919, and the United Nations following the Second World War in 1945.
