Watch: India announces 2 lakh Covid-19 doses for UN peacekeepers

India, which has shipped ‘Made In India’ COVID-19 vaccines to 25 countries, on Wednesday appealed the international community to stop "vaccine nationalism" and actively encourage "internationalism", underlining that hoarding superfluous doses will defeat global efforts to attain collective health security and combat the deadly pandemic.

Addressing the UN Security Council, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar outlined nine points for consideration of the international community to help the world put the COVID-19 pandemic decisively behind it and to emerge more resilient.

In recent weeks, several countries have tried to prevent the export of vaccines made within their borders, which experts say would hinder a global recovery.
