Iran’s Ambassador: World must be prepared for great crisis of the century
Iranian Ambassador to France Bahram Qasemi said in a twitter message that the world must be ready for the great crisis of the century.
Iran Press/ Europe: Bahram Qasemi wrote on his Twitter account on Saturday: "Albert Camus, whose the 'Plague' novel was repeated with Coronavirus, wrote in a letter to his book critic: Undoubtedly the 'Plague' compared to the 'Stranger' is the transition from individual rebellion to social struggle. If there is a path of change from strangers to plagues, it is solidarity and partnership."
