Statement by the High Representative for the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations, the Secretary General of Religions for Peace, and the President of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network:
Gathered in Gernika, Spain, and across the planet, we believe that peace is the necessary aim of rational persons everywhere. Today’s wars – in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and the Americas – are all solvable through dialogue, justice, international law, and the principle of collective security, meaning that the security of all parties to a conflict is recognized and secured. Poverty, oppression, and exploitation fuel conflicts. We commit to sustainable development as a bulwark of peace.
