各位阁下，女士们，先生们，在第二次世界大战结束时，为了响应各国人民合作维护国际和平与安全的渴望，我们的组织应运而生。在这个纪念日，我们面临一个新的重大挑战，即一场全球疫情，它要求我们重新对本组织的各项原则作出承诺。COVID-19提醒我们，为了给当代重大问题提供持久有效的解决方案，共同努力比单打独斗更为重要。因此，马达加斯加同其他人一道，呼吁群策群力，以期加强团结，管理疫情的各种影响。包括疫情在内的全球新威胁往往挑战我们对多边主义的承诺。
Excellencies, Ladies and gentlemen, At the end of the Second World War, the birth of our Organization was a response to the desire of all countries to cooperate for international peace and security. On this day of commemoration, we face a new major challenge, a global pandemic, which calls for the renewal of our commitment to the principles of the Organization. COVID-19 reminds us that it is more important to work together than individually to provide lasting and effective solutions to major contemporary problems. It is for this reason that Madagascar joins in the call to pool capacities, resources and initiatives, aimed at establishing greater solidarity in the management of the impacts of the pandemic.
