United Nations Day 2010: Secretary-General message

United Nations, New York, 24 October 2010 - UN Day is devoted to highlighting the aims and achievements of the United Nations. This year's UN Day focuses on the eight UN Millennium Development Goals and follows on the High-level Plenary Meeting of the General Assembly on 20-22 September 2010, which adopted a global action plan to achieve the eight goals by their 2015 target date.

"UN Day is a day on which we resolve to do more. More to protect those caught up in armed conflict, to fight climate change and avert nuclear catastrophe; more to expand opportunities for women and girls, and to combat injustice and impunity; more to meet the Millennium Development Goals." (Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Message on UN Day, 24 October 2010)

I really wish that you could achieve your goals, but I believe that you need a lot of development to achieve it "No offence but it is my opinion". you use your power against parties and neglect violation of other parties. This will lead a temporary peace not a permanent peace and tolerance. I hope you could achieve the MDG goals and permanent peace.
