25 years ago the Assembly General declared September 21 the
International Day of Peace, as the Day of world armistice and combat
violence. The UN Secretary General mentions in his message that "It
calls on the people not only to think, but also to act for the sake
of peace".
"The countries have started to really pay attention to preventing
diplomacy. The UN peace-keeping missions and efforts towards the
protection of human rights change the situation. Factually, there
are fewer wars today than in the previous decade. But still, there
are many of them. Each case of conflict is our failure which reminds
us about how many things there are to do.
I call on all the people of the world to celebrate this day with a
minute of silence for the sake of peace. Let's remember the victims
of the war. And let each of us promise to do more for the sake of
everlasting peace", the message said.
