每到年终岁末,联合国秘书长都照例要发表新年致辞。今年的致辞因联合国驻伊拉克办事处遭到袭击,高级官员丧生而平添了几分悲凉。此外,关于伊拉克战争的争论引起联合国成员国之间严重对立。尽管如此,安南秘书长仍然呼吁各国以天下苍生为怀,把更多的精力放在百姓的健康和福祉上。 At the end of each year at the end of the year, the Secretary-General of the United Nations has to issue a new year’s address as usual. This year’s speech was devastated by the attacks on the UN office in Iraq and the death of senior officials. In addition, the controversy over the Iraq war has caused serious confrontation among the member states of the United Nations. Despite this, Secretary-General Annan still called on all nations to take the lives of the entire world and put more emphasis on the health and well-being of the people.
