Give hope to those left behind in a globalised world
This is the moment when we must give hope to those left behind in a globalized world. Lift the child in Bangladesh from poverty, shelter the refugee in Chad.
We must remember that the Cold War born in this city was not a battle for land or treasure. Sixty years ago, the planes that flew over Berlin did not drop bombs; instead they delivered food, and coal, and candy to grateful children. And in that show of solidarity, those pilots won more than a military victory. They won hearts and minds; love and loyalty and trust – not just from the people in this city, but from all those who heard the story of what they did here.
