[As delivered]
Your Majesty, and Excellencies, Colleagues.
The first voice we heard on that video, Mariam, was killed exactly one month ago today.
And, Yasmeen, Omar, we also hear you. We see you. We need you. And I hope to meet you in the light and not when you have to shield yourselves in the dark.
So, we gather, once again, to share our testimony and our shame.
