Declaration of my position

• My position is in between the opposing fronts. Because I want to be open to talk with each side.
• I believe that dialogue alone can lead to peace.
• I condemn terrorism and its atrocities, violations of international agreements and desecration of humans’ dignity. By whoever.
• I am against war.
• I take responsibility for my own feelings such as resignation, fury or fear. Above all, I empathise with the victims of violence. Everywhere.
• I am not helpless and I trust that I can do something in the face of any adversity. Always.

With this declaration, if only symbolically, I step between hostile parties. I am unarmed and committed to keeping an open mind and heart. I endeavour to uphold my stance in the hope to contribute to emerging resolutions. Whenever.
