Chinese Ambassador Zhang on 2 March told reporters in New York that “this coming of spring, we are not far from the coming of the victory, of the final defeat of COVID-19.”
The Ambassador, who will preside the Security Council during the month of March, said “China’s fight against the coronavirus is indeed making huge progress and the situation is really becoming stable, and the situation is developing towards the right direction, and the situation is really getting better and better.”
Zhang Jun told reporters that the Council will follow developments but there are no plans to call a meeting on the COVID-19 issue.
He said, “we do not need to go panicky about that epidemic. What’s also clear is that the issue of the coronavirus falls within the concept of global public health and security. But the Security Council’s primary responsibility is dealing with the geopolitical security and peace.”
On the global spread of the epidemic, he said, “what we are doing in China is not only helping the Chinese themselves, we are also helping the world.”
The Ambassador said that by sharing information, expertise, and experiences with other countries, “we are also trying our best to provide medical assistance to other countries.”
Zhang Jun said, “the coronavirus has caused an active impact on the Chinese economy” but “because of the strong resilience because of the enormous domestic consumption and the domestic market, and because of the solid foundation of the Chinese economy, we are very much confident that we are able to realize the goals we have set for this year, the economic goals, the social goals, and we do have confidence about the future of the Chinese economy.”
