The UN Secretary General stated that the world “cannot afford a future in which the two largest economic powers will split the planet and a great rift will occur”.
According to TASS, at the high-level political debate of the 75th session of the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, UN Secretary-General António Guterres believes that every effort should be made to prevent the Cold War between the US and China.
“We are moving in a very dangerous direction. Our world cannot afford a future in which the two largest economic powers will split the planet and a great rift will occur, after which each of these powers will have its own trade and financial rules, the Internet and artificial intelligence resources”, – Guterres said, – “We must do everything possible to avoid a new Cold War.”
According to the UN Secretary General, “technological and economic division inevitably risks leading to geopolitical and military disagreements”.
