Mine damer og herrer, vores forgængere mødtes i denne uge for mere end seks årtier siden for at opbygge institutioner, der havde til formål at sikre, at de mørkeste kapitler i det 20. århundrede ikke vil blive gentaget i resten af det århundrede eller i det 21. århundrede.
Ladies and Gentlemen, our predecessors came together more than six decades ago this week to begin to build institutions designed to ensure that the 20th century's darkest chapters would not be repeated in the remainder of that century or in the 21st century.
