على منصّة الأمم المتحدة.. كان خِطابُ سيّدي سموّ الأمير المفدّى مساء اليوم؛ شامِلًا كما كان دائمًا على مدار عَقدٍ من الزمان. حيثُ وضع الخِطابُ حدًّا لكلّ مُسيءٍ لديننا ولقُرآننا الكريم، ورسّخ ثبات #قطر على مبادئها ووقوفها إلى جانب الأُمّتين العربية والإسلامية.
مستقبل الشعوب والأجيال القادمة مرهونٌ بالقضاء على مآسي الحاضر، وينبغي توحيد جهود مجتمعنا الدولي لمجابهة المعوّقات التي تواجه الإنسانية جمعاء كالفقر والظلم الصّارخ المتمثل بالاحتلال والعنصرية وجرائم الحرب، من خلال التعاون في تنفيذ القانون الدولي.
كلي فخر برؤية صاحب السمو الشيخ تميم وهو يوجه كلمة لإخوانه المسلمين والمجتمع الغربي حول حرية التعبير. ويشارك العالم بخير تمثيل لمبادئ قطر وشعبها حول العالم.
