全球军事开支在2024年达到2.7万亿美元,远远超过世卫组织的42亿美元的两年卫生预算,促使人们呼吁将和平与健康列为优先事项。 Global military spending reached $2.7 trillion in 2024, far exceeding WHO’s $4.2 billion two-year health budget, prompting calls to prioritize peace and health.

世卫组织总干事Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus指出,2024年,全球军事开支创下了创纪录的2.7万亿美元,而全球卫生资金却有所下降。 In 2024, global military spending hit a record $2.7 trillion, while global health funding declined, according to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. 他说,卫生组织的两年期预算42亿美元——每年约21亿美元——不足,相当于全球军费开支仅8小时。 He stated the WHO’s two-year budget of $4.2 billion—about $2.1 billion annually—is insufficient, equivalent to just eight hours of global military spending. Tedros敦促领导人将和平与健康置于冲突之上, 将和平称为“最佳药方”, 批评国防投资与卫生投资之间的不平衡。 Tedros urged leaders to prioritize peace and health over conflict, calling peace "the best medicine" and criticizing the imbalance between defense and health investments.
