Dear Editor,
In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, António Guterres, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, has condemned nations for their propensity to fiercely compete for critical medical supplies, thereby prioritising the safety of their own citizens (“World governments seek commitment from UN summit to address debt and development in the Global South”, World News, 20th September). Yet, one wonders, what would become of a government that were to act otherwise?
Yours sincerely,
Dr. John Doherty,
Gaoth Dobhair,
County Donegal.
