Covid-19, a deadly pandemic that originated from the Chinese province of Hubae has engulfed the whole globe leaving almost every country affected.From Indian subcontinent to United States and South Africa to Europe the world is in a tight fix and every single state of the world is facing a tough fight against a small microbe. Although, every state may possess enough equipment and nuclear arsenal for human destruction but surprisingly, they all are helpless against a tiny microbe not more than few micron’s in size. Their hefty investments on accumulating the arms for years have downgraded their strength to such a level that a microscopic microbe has apparently brought every state on its knees. However, let us be optimistic in pinning our hopes for the world to overcome this challenge from the virus! The pandemic is piercing every artificial border between nations across the world. It is proving deadly and disastrous with each passing moment. The whole Europe is in a state of emergency with Italy and Spain becoming the worst victims of the pandemic so far. Hopefully, the situation is gradually improving there with risk still at the doors. The fatality rate in both nations has been alarmingly high. The figures are fierce enough. The global leader, US, has become a deadly hotspot in the past weeks. In a way, the whole world is at the brink of a natural disaster.In the meantime, the fight against the pandemic can’t be unilateral but it has to be multi lateral with a cohesive and collective approach.From developed world to developing nations of world along with the under developed countries,the whole world has to come together to fight the pandemic and it is sure beyond any doubt that the fight will be definitely decisive.Formally,we have to have a “one global nation” approach to defeat the pandemic. Every single state has to come out from the clutches of prejudice,grudge and all other unwarranted differences has to be silenced to make the passage of united and unequivocal fight against the covid a reality.US can’t afford an inch of arrogance under the shades of capitalism and materialistic tones of hegemony. We simply need every human being of every nation state from Cuba and South Sudan to United States and United Kingdom on this planet, for the land of this planet is no one’s monopoly in its least!The world has to survive as a whole, for each of us can’t survive the strange isolation in the 21st century.So,to make possible the survival of human congregation against the covid pandemic,the whole world has to revisit the bold and inevitable principles of mutual cooperation and mutual understanding.These two principles must become the protagonist of foreign policy of every state of the endangered world. And these principles can find their place only at the absence of wicked elements of prejudice and rivalry.Let’s pin optimistic hopes that we all for the sake of the human existence share the same bond against this pandemic at least for now, and help each other to give a collective hope to the disturbed minds of homo sapiens in this hour of huge crises.
People have to be at the best to back their respective state in fighting the Corona pandemic. This can be done by religiously adhering to the preventive precautions issued by the health authorities. Above all amid this deadly pandemic, let us hold the hopes high, be optimistic and help every other fellow human being by every possible means!
Conclusion: From saving human lives to maintaining the life of economies, the world is bracing for a new wave of challenges in the mid of this pandemic. Yet above all, human lives must be the priority of all state Government’s around the globe. But this cannot be done individually or in isolation. All nation states have to join hands with each other to have a unified fight against covid19.The bias has to be allowed to vanish at least this time. The mutual cooperation among the nation states has to reach to its climax in this hour of deep and deadly crisis. The self sufficient states have to volunteer their efforts for the weak and underdeveloped nations which are literally fighting poverty and other serious issues since decades now.
No country can think about to continue their grudge against Iran that is one among the worst hit Corona nations of the world.USA as a global leader has literally qualified to be a morally corrupted nation on planet by continuing with its infamous economic sanctions over Iran even during the Covid19.Similarly,India and Israel have exploited the pandemic by extending their colonial programs of annexing the lands of helpless Muslims of Kashmir and Palestine respectively.No one would had imagined such heinous intentions of the so called custodians of human values amidst a pandemic! All this pathetic mindset from the opportunistic nations would deteriorate the situation beyond imagination. So, the proxy of gruesome intentions and the typical hypocritical approach of every single nation have to be plugged at the earliest and only this can generate an opportunity of rebuilding the dashed dreams of all the affected people around the world. At the national and international level, legal agencies have a big role to play. They can’t allow their Governments a slight slumber against the deadly pandemic. The Judiciary in every country has to come forward and monitor the state’s trajectory for fighting against the pandemic. Jury has to be pro active in persuading the state to reckon the pandemic an emergency and hence to galvanise it’s manpower to deal with it. Moreover, people have to be at the best to back their respective state in fighting the Corona pandemic. This can be done by religiously adhering to the preventive precautions issued by the health authorities. Above all amid this deadly pandemic, let us hold the hopes high, be optimistic and help every other fellow human being by every possible means! Thanks
