女士们，先生们，这场活动是为了重申对国际合法性基础的承诺，国际合法性是人们在面对争端时的安全阀，也是许多人民对更美好世界的希望。本组织是在一场夺去数百万人生命的世界大战后成立的，它为拯救后代免遭战祸作出了贡献，也为加强许多人的自决权、终结世界上许多地方的殖民化以及化解冷战期间和之后的多次危机和战争作出了贡献。《联合国宪章》规定的基本原则是我们多边工作的基石，也是加强国际关系的基础。
This occasion comes to renew the commitment in the foundations of international legitimacy, acting as a safety value in the face of disputes, and as a hope for many peoples for a better world. This Organization came into being after a world war that claimed millions of lives, and has contributed to saving future generations from the scourge of wars, it also contributed in reinforcing the right to self-determination to lots of people, ending colonization in many parts of the world, as well as defusing crises and wars during the cold war and beyond. The basic principles laid out in the Charter of the United Nations, constitute the corner stone of our multilateral work, and are the basis for reinforcing international relations.
