UN has coexisted alongside global organisations: UN spokesperson on Trump’s Board of Peace
UNITED NATIONS, Jan 20 (PTI): With US President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace on Gaza being seen as a rival, a United Nations spokesperson said the world body has “coexisted” alongside various global institutions and would wait to see “what sort of relationship” it has with the US-led initiative.
“The UN has coexisted alongside any number of organisations. There are regional organisations, subregional organisations, and various defence alliances around the world,” Farhan Haq, Deputy Spokesperson for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, said.
“Some of them, we have relationship agreements with. Some of them, we don’t. We would have to see in terms of details what the Board of Peace becomes as it actually is established to know what sort of relationship we would have with it,” he said.
