Geneva, Switzerland: This broken chair in front of the UN building is for reminding people about anti-personal mines that are bruied under the ground during the wars and that continue to kill and maim children and adults for years after the wars are over. I have seen persons with their legs blown off due to mines and the sight of this chair in Geneva, every time that I see it, is a stark reminder of that horror. Yet there are countries that continue to make and sell these. We should not be emotional, they say, it is just a business, if we don't do it, someone else will.
Genevra, Svizzera: Questa sedia con la gamba rotta, davanti all'edificio dell'ONU, è per ricordare le persone rese disabili e uccise dalle mine anti uomo, che continuano a mietere vittime anni dopo la fine delle guerre. Ho visto persone con le loro gambe spazzate via dalle bombe e ogni volta che vedo questo sedia, quelli ricordi tornano come un pugno nello stomaco. Ma vi sono dei paesi che continuano a fabbricare e vendere queste bombe. Non dobbiamo essere emotivi, dicono, se non li venderemo noi, lo farà qualcun altro.
