United Nations, New York, 27 May 2011 - Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today paid tribute to the more than 120,000 military, police and civilian personnel serving in the various United Nations peacekeeping missions across the world and honoured those who have lost their lives in the cause of peace.

"Their deployment is a manifestation of our collective conviction that people who have survived a war should not have to suffer again through a period of insecurity, injustice and fear -- and that only by removing these conditions can we engender lasting peace," Mr. Ban said in his message on the International Day of UN Peacekeepers, observed on 29 May every year.
