<p>The UK is leading with partners and allies to: support an effective and co-ordinated
global health response led by the World Health Organisation, reinforce the resilience
of vulnerable countries, pursue a vaccine, and support the global economy. The Foreign
Secretary spoke to the UN Secretary-General on these priorities on 5 May. The UK is
working together with international partners to achieve these objectives, including
with the G7, G20, the UN and other multilateral institutions, in order to ensure a
stronger institutional response to the current crisis, and greater resilience against
future threats. Officials in Geneva and New York are in regular contact with the UN
Agencies, Funds and Programmes on their contributions to the crisis response including
future crisis preparedness. This included co-sponsoring a Mexican resolution in the
General Assembly on access to medical supplies during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
