UN chief: 'reasons for hope' in a world still on 'red alert' in 2019
联合国秘书长古特雷斯2019新年致辞:面对危机 世界“有理由抱有希望”

The United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres issued “a red alert” over a range of dangers that confronted the world during 2018, and which "still persist" as 2019 approaches.
联合国秘书长古特雷斯12月30日为即将到来的新年发表致辞指出,过去一年全球面临的“红色警报”危险将在2019年“持续存在”。
Record numbers of people are moving in search of safety and protection, inequality is growing and "people are questioning a world in which a handful of people hold the same wealth as half of humanity," Guterres said.
古特雷斯说,空前多的人正在寻求安全和保护,不平等正在增长,“人们正在质疑这个少数人拥有着与一半人类等量财富的世界”。
"But," Guterres continued, "there are also reasons for hope," notably in Yemen where breakthrough talks have created an opportunity at least, for peace.
但是,古特雷斯说,“也有理由抱有希望”,特别是在也门,历史性的谈判至少为和平创造了机会。
The Secretary-General also cited the September agreement signed in Riyadh between Ethiopia and Eritrea, which has eased long-running tensions and brought improved prospects to an entire region as cause for optimism.
古特雷斯还指出,埃塞俄比亚和厄立特里亚9月在利雅得签署协议也是让人们可以保持乐观的原因,该协议缓解了双方长期的紧张局势,并使整个地区的前景得到改善。
"When international cooperation works, the world wins," the UN chief stressed. (People's Daily app)
古特雷斯强调,“当国际进行有效合作时,世界将取胜”。
