important able needs
It's very important to be able to act properly. You need financing, and you never have enough.
thinking effort community
I think it's a disgrace for the international community that we have allowed so many conflicts to become frozen, and we are not making a serious effort to solve them.
nice party reality
You have to be rather straightforward with your clients. You can't tell the parties only nice things. This is not an entertainment show; it's not reality television either.
war being-there conflict
All conflicts can be resolved. Wars and conflicts are not inevitable. They are caused by human beings. There are always interests that are furthered by war. Therefore those who have power and influence can also stop them. Peace is a question of will.
war rights firsts
To protect women in times of war, we must first make sure women receive equal rights in times of peace.
hard-work done needs
There is a lot of hard work that needs to be done
less people
I'm one of those people who, as long as I am still healthy and my thoughts are more or less clear, I don't think I can retire entirely.
