1. “From this universal podium I convey a warm greeting to the Assembly and the whole of humanity. I especially commend my fellow Costa Rican citizens for their free and sovereign decision, which has given me the great honour to represent them before you all. I begin my remarks with renewed support for the United Nations, for its contributions to human rights, peace, security, comprehensive sustainable development, tolerance, solidarity and respect for diversity and for international law. It is without doubt an organization of States, but more, it is an organization of peoples, who from their differences embrace and take shelter in the humanistic and universal values that support the United Nations. At this moment, around the world those values and their implied commitments are flourishing, but they are also suffering.”
