Core topic of virtual gathering will be pandemic and COVID-19 response.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced that he would be holding a virtual ministerial with foreign ministers on Wednesday to discuss COVID-19 vaccine equity and pandemic response in general. 750,000 deaths have been attributed to the coronavirus in the U.S., and the global COVID-19 death toll is reported to be over 5 million.
“Foreign Ministers must play a central role to bring this pandemic to an end and prepare for the future. Together with my counterparts and leaders from regional and international organizations, we will assess the current state of the global response to COVID-19, the virus’s impact, and the threat of future pandemics,” Secretary Blinken stated.
