"The growing tensions in the world are facilitated by the expansion of terrorism and radical extremism, the ongoing global economic downturn amid the spread of coronavirus infection, as well as the destructive foreign policy by some states. Terrorism continues in Syria, Iran, Afghanistan and Libya," Gerasimov said.
