STORYLINE:
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday called on "everyone to lay down their arms" during the Paris Olympic Games, which is scheduled to open on Friday, July 26.

SOUNDBITE (English): ANTONIO GUTERRES, UN Secretary-General
"Bonjour and welcome to the 2024 Summer Olympic Games. The world gathers in Paris to celebrate the power of sport, to bring hope, to transcend cultures, to unite people, to promote mutual respect and fair play. These are also the ideals of the United Nations. In the spirit of the Olympic Truce, I call on everyone to lay down their arms, build bridges, foster solidarity, and strive for the ultimate goal: peace for all. I wish every success to the Olympians and Paralympians. You inspire us to dream bigger. May the Olympic flame light the path to a world of peace and harmony."
In November 2023, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution on the Olympic Truce, urging UN member states to observe the Olympic Truce individually and collectively throughout the period from the seventh day before the start of the Paris Olympic Games until the seventh day following the end of the Paris Paralympic Games in 2024.
