Speech - Enrique Castillo Barrantes - Minister of Foreign Affairs and Worship
As Minister of Foreign Affairs and Worship of Costa Rica; I assure you that Costa Ricans, convinced of our systems of democratic coexistence, governed by humanist principles, will reject any act of hatred and persecution, such as demonstrations of antisemitism directed at any place against the Jewish people and any form of racism; all marked as a denial of the gift of life and an offense of the image of the Creator.
