The recent assassination attempt against President Jose Ramos-Horta is a attempt to kill moderation.
Mr. Ramos-Horta, a Nobel Peace Prize co-laureate and distinguished member of the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation is a world figure who has dedicated his life to combatting injustice and furthering peace.
We, his fellow members, at the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation, whose mission is to preserve and divulge the legacies of Raoul Wallenberg and the other heroes of the Holocaust, pray for his prompt and safe recovery.
