During his address, the Prime Minister firmly asserted that “international law is the bedrock of peace and global order” and contended that “it should be universally applied to all nations, with all States adhering to it.”

Xanana Gusmão emphasised the importance of approaching all conflicts with equal concern, stating that “we have a moral obligation to approach and concern ourselves with all conflicts equally”.

“There are currently around 65 wars going on in the world. Even if they seem distant from our own countries, we must not forget them”, said the Head of Government, reiterating the need to “uphold the promise of justice in international law and endeavour to achieve peace”.
