Press encounter upon arrival in

Press events | Kofi Annan, Former Secretary-General
Q: So what does it mean for the United Nations that you are receiving the Peace Prize?
SG: For the United Nations it is a great encouragement. It is a message that we have made a contribution and that we should do more, and I think it also sends a message out to the rest of the world that this is a unique, indispensable Organization and that the Member States and the peoples of the world must use it, this Organization. We are there for that and we want to work with them.
Q: Are you visiting the mountains this time?
SG: Not this time.
Mrs. A: Perhaps, perhaps. *****
