such individuals and groups, I therefore count on your cooperation in this important collective endeavour, to make sure that all those who dare to speak, to raise alarm and to bravely defend the rights of their communities, are able to do so without any risk to themselves or to their communities. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen, I wish you all a fruitful and constructive dialogue over the next two days and I also make a call to keep this discussion open all year long, in order to encourage that all the discussions and experience shared in the context of the Forum may lead to tangible actions. Let’s have a successful Forum on Minority Issues. Thank you.
