Jeg siger ikke, at konflikten i Mellemøsten er årsagen hertil, men den benyttes som alibi for meget, som giver os anledning til store bekymringer.
I am not saying that the Middle East conflict is at the root of these issues, but it serves as an excuse for many of the things that cause us grave concern, and it is for this reason that the resolution of this problem in our neighbourhood is in our own fundamental interest.
