French President Emmanuel Macron saidWednesday he's gotten the agreement of President Trump, and the leaders of China and the U.K. to back a UN call for a global ceasefire so the world can overcome the coronavirus.

Details: Macron hopes Russian President Vladimir Putin will agree to the truce when they speak later Wednesday, so the leaders of the five UN Security Council permanent members can hold a videoconference on the issue.

By the numbers: COVID-19 has infected more than 1.98 million people and killed over 126,700 worldwide, per Johns Hopkins. More than 493,600 people have recovered from the virus.
