00:02Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you all for being here.
00:07Let me first say that it's calculated risk, what we are talking about.
00:14Yes, it's not an absurd risk, what we are talking about. It's calculated risk.
00:19But which risk I am prepared to take? The risk of rejection.
00:22The risk of nobody wanting you there, and you're pushing to be there because you have an idea,
00:32because maybe you are thinking outside the box, and you have something to propose that can make a difference.
00:38Not because you are always right, but because your presence makes a difference,
00:44because your presence brings a different perspective,
00:46because you can enrich the options that are being considered.
00:52I am a very rounded candidate. I have a lot of experience.
00:57I have navigated very difficult situations.
01:00I know how to stand on pressure and to the principles and to continue to be the moral voice
01:12and the impartial voice that the Secretary General has to be.
01:16But I maintain engagement.
01:18You know, not always I have agreed with my member states.
01:22And I maintain still the engagement, the relations with all the members.
01:28I have a huge experience in cooperation.
01:31I have been a reformer, and I have been a peacemaker.
01:35So, ready to go.
01:39So, early engagement, early action, more flexibility and agility to be there to propose a solution is what we needed
01:50and is what we need,
01:52especially in regional conflicts where there are so many actors.
01:56I know the value of peace, and I was also part of the government that started the peace proposal in
02:04Central America.
02:05So, I know. I have seen it in my own life and with my own eyes.
02:10So, I will be committed to it.
02:12You don't have to know about war to know about peace.
02:18You don't have to know about peace.
