BEIJING: The International Advisory Board Of the Silk Road Think Tank Association has held a videoconference and released a statement, calling for strengthening international cooperation in fight against the Covid-19 (coronavirus) outbreak on Saturday (April 25).
Focusing on the theme of"Working together to meet global public health security challenges and build the health Silk Road," the meeting was attended on Friday by more than 30 politicians and scholars from more than 10 countries, including Iran, France, Italy, Egypt and Greece.
It must be duly acknowledged that since the outbreak of Covid-19, various countries have adopted response tactics and measures in light of their specific national conditions and significant progress has been achieved in China and some other countries, offering useful practice to the ongoing global fight against Covid-19, the statement said.
"Concerted efforts must be made to promote joint research and development towards early breakthroughs with a scientific approach and to oppose the politicization of public health issues, the stigmatization of other countries under the excuse of Covid-19 and discriminatory comments and practices against any country, region or ethnic group."
