在联合国成立75周年和民主选举学会庆祝自己成立25周年的关键时刻，我们只能希望，国际社会对多边主义作出新的承诺，能够使我们在未来几十年建设一个更美好的世界，能够使我们建设一个不让任何人掉队、每个人都有机会生活在和平、公正和包容的社会中的世界，让每个人都能充分享有作为人类共同遗产核心的基本自由和权利。
At this critical juncture, when the UN turns 75, and International IDEA celebrates its own 25th anniversary, we can only hope that a renewed international commitment to multilateralism will allow us to build a better world over the next few decades, that will allow us to build a world in which no one will be left behind, in which every human being will have the opportunity to live in peaceful, just and inclusive societies, in which every person will fully enjoy the fundamental freedoms and rights that are the core of our common human heritage.
