今天，国际社会即将进入落实可持续发展目标行动十年，这是面临新挑战和威胁的十年。挑战之一是冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行，它已经夺走了数十万人的生命，并继续对地球上的每个人构成严重威胁。可持续发展目标的实现也受到了威胁。它们必须继续成为我们关注的焦点。如果我们通过密切合作和多边主义保持团结一致，我们就能够对付这一威胁。至关重要的是必须提供疫苗、治疗和个人防护设备，以防止病毒传播。
The global community today is on the threshold of entering the decade of action to implement the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a decade of confronting new challenges and threats. One of the challenges is the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, which has already claimed hundreds of thousands of lives and continues to pose a serious threat to everyone on the planet. The realization of the SDGs has also come under threat. They must remain the focus of our attention. We will be able to counter the threat if we remain united in solidarity through close cooperation and multilateralism. It is imperative to provide access to vaccines, treatments and personal protective equipment to prevent the virus from spreading.
