NEW YORK: In a message on Sunday marking his first day as the world body’s chief, the newly appointed United Nations Chief Antonio Guterres said that he would like to make 2017 a year to ‘put peace first’.
The 67-year-old former Portuguese prime minister took over as UN Secretary-general from South Korea’s Ban Ki-moon, inheriting the complex crises in Syria, South Sudan, Yemen, Burundi, North Korea and any issue anywhere in the world.
“How can we help the millions of people caught up in conflict, suffering massively in wars with no end in sight?” Guterres said.
