I know that many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/03\/26\/one-thing-nigeria-has-in-common-with-your-countries-is-peace-buhari-tells-envoys\/\">countries<\/a> are asking for the United States to do more, some with growing desperation, because of the scope and scale of their Covid emergencies. We hear you, and I promise we&#8217;re moving as fast as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Blinken also underscored the need for global cooperation and for the US to help other countries.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Even if we vaccinate all 332 million people in United States tomorrow, we would still not be fully safe from the virus,&#8221; the top US diplomat said in remarks at the State Department.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not while it&#8217;s still replicating around the world, and turning into new variants that could easily come here and spread across our communities, again, and not if we want to fully reopen our economy, or start traveling again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This pandemic won&#8217;t end at home, until it ends worldwide,&#8221; Blinken said.<\/p>\n<p>He also appeared to take a swipe at Russia and China.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We won&#8217;t overpromise and underdeliver. We&#8217;ll maintain high standards for the vaccines that we help to bring to others, only distributing those proven to be safe and effective. We&#8217;ll insist on an approach built on equity,&#8221; Blinken said.<\/p>\n<p>China has taken a different approach to the US and is exporting vaccines widely before making them widely available at home. The Chinese Foreign Ministry announced last month that it is providing free vaccines to 69 countries and commercially exporting them to 28 more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>United States of America has disclosed that it would not &#8220;trade shots in arms for political favours&#8221; with other countries.
