“Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant.”
— Elie Wiesel

Simplified Meaning:
When people are in danger or being treated unfairly, it is important to help, no matter the country they live in or how their government feels. Imagine seeing a child about to be hit by a car—anyone would quickly act to save them. Similarly, if people in another country are suffering or their basic human rights are being ignored, we should do something to assist them. It doesn't matter where they are from or what the political situation is; helping those in need comes first. By prioritizing human life and dignity over borders and politics, we stand for a world where everyone’s safety and well-being are important. People can apply this by speaking out against injustice and supporting organizations that protect human rights globally.
