Geneva, Rabi'II 20, 1438, January 18, 2017, SPA -- Chinese President Xi Jinping called for a world without nuclear weapons at the UN on Wednesday and urged a multilateral system based on equality among nations large and small. His speech at the United Nations in Geneva came at the end of a diplomatic tour that included a landmark address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, just days before Donald Trump is sworn in as the 45th president of the United States. "Nuclear weapons should be completely prohibited and destroyed over time to make the world free of nuclear weapons," Xi said, according to an official translation. -- SPA 23:43 LOCAL TIME 20:43 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w315407
