The best way to promote peace is through dialogue and diplomacy, not through violence or hatred.

The high number of migrant deaths is a tragedy that could be prevented with better search and rescue efforts and more safe migration alternatives.

We must never give up hope for a better future.

We should be careful not to demonize entire groups of people based on the actions of a few. There are good and bad people on all sides of every conflict.

This report is biased and only shows one side of the story. What about the violence perpetrated by Palestinians against Israelis?

We must not tolerate violence against civilians, regardless of their ethnicity or religion.

The Russian airstrikes in Ukraine are a clear violation of international law. Russia must be stopped before it causes more harm.
