Iran Press/ Iran news: The Foreign Ministry's statement in support of the UN Secretary-General's idea of ??implementing a global ceasefire in Afghanistan, stated: "The Islamic Republic of Iran shares with the benevolent idea of UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in declaring a global truce in all wars and engaging with fighting the Coronavirus, which has ruthlessly attacked all human beings regardless of race, sex, age, ethnicity or religion.”
