| 滝川理紗さん（活水高等学校2年）のスピーチ |
I am an ordinary high school student living in peaceful surroundings.
But there is one thing that distinguishes me from the rest of students.
I was born in the atom-bombed city of Nagasaki.
Do you know Nagasaki peace messengers and 10,000 High School Students
Signature Campaign”? The campaign dates back to the time in 1998 when,
after the test explosion of nuclear devices in India and Pakistan, a Nagasaki
Civic Organization started dispatching high school students, naming them
“Nagasaki High School Peace Messengers” to convey the messages from the
atom-bombed Nagasaki to the United Nations. Three years afterward, the
batch of high school Ambassadors, on their return from the visit to the
U.N., hatched an idea to launch a campaign to collect 10,000 signatures
condemning nuclear bombs from high school students. It was 5 years ago
that the “Campaign 10,000 Students Signatures” got formally launched. In
2001, the multiple simultaneous terrorist attacks in the U.S. opened up
a new vista for the campaign to engage itself in other than atomic bomb
abolition.
By continuing our campaign, we could promote understanding and sympathy
from the people of Nagasaki, entire Japan, and all countries of the world,
that is where the greatest meaning lies. 60years have passed since the
advent of A-bomb victims hibakusha. That single A-bomb inflicted deep scars
in the hearts of “hibakusha” who today live painfully still with various
after-effects of A-bomb explosion. Yet at least we can try to understand
and commiserate with those who still suffer. That is the reason why we
are convinced that there shouldn’t be any more sites of nuclear explosion.
That is the meaning of why I was born in
Nagasaki. That is the mission given me and that is the ideal that I strive
for, viz. the realization of a peaceful world where nuclear bombs are eradicated.

| セルゲイ・オルジョニキーゼ・国際連合欧州本部長の挨拶(抜粋) |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As we celebrate the United Nations 60th anniversary, we recognize that
the founding Member States values; to uphold the dignity of human life
and secure peace and development remain valid and important today, as they
were six decades ago. Today, we face new global threats and challenges,
which cannot be addressed independently of one another. Environmental sustainability
is one of these challenges highlighted in the Millennium Development Goals
where at the recent UN Summit, leaders reiterated their commitment to take
concrete actions.
The commitment to achieve our global objectives cannot be reached individually,
but through strengthened partnership and collective action of all actors
within the international community. This reality is symbolized in the pebbles
representing the 191 Member States in today’s ceremony, and serves to remind
us, that great achievements result from adding-up the littly deeds people
can offer through peaceful means.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As ‘The Blue Star of Life’ continues to grace this foyer in years to come,
we believe that its message of peace will be communicated through bold
decisions in this institution. And, we promise to treasure and safeguard
it along with the values that it holds.
Thank you.
