to you I say merci. Thank you, shokran, Spasiba Bolshoi,
Xie xie, Muchas gracias.
Finally, thanks to all of you who as participants and
delegations who are at the centre of the Forum, and with
whom I hope we can work together to make a better
world but also a better forum – and a better world. We
need to rediscover this inspiration and commitment of
justice for all and no one left behind by advancing the
protection of the rights of minorities.
Someone once said that it is during our darkest moments
that we must focus to see the light. What you have done
yesterday and today is provide some the light that is much
needed if we are to truly have universal human rights,
because on this 30th anniversary of the Declaration on the
rights of minorities, you have tried to rethink, review and
reform what is needed to make the world a better place, a
place for peace and justice for all.
