Speaking on his first day at UN headquarters after taking the organization's reins from Ban Ki-moon, Guterres said today that conflicts are multiplying and interlinked and have triggered "global terrorism."
He said there are also massive human rights violations and growing inequalities that spark revolt, anger and instability.
The former Portuguese prime minister and UN refugee chief said "only global solutions can address global problems, and the UN is the cornerstone of that multilateral approach." But Guterres said this belief isn't shared by many people around the world.
