In 2001 Kofi Annan received the Nobel Prize in conjunction with the United Nations.
The focus of his speech was global inequality.
"Ladies and gentlemen,
Today in Afghanistan a girl will be born.
Her mother will hold her, feed her and comfort her and care for her just as any mother would anywhere else in the world.
In those most basic acts of human nature, humanity knows no divisions.
But to be born a girl in Afghanistan today, is to begin life centuries away from the prosperity that one small part of humanity has achieved.
Even thought her mother would do all in her power, to protect her and sustain her.
There is a one in four risk that the girl will not live to see her fifth birthday.
Whether she does is just one of the tests of our common humanity of our belief in our individual responsibility for our fellow men and women.
But it is the only test that matters.
Remember this girl then our large aims to fight poverty, prevent conflict or cure disease will nothing distant or impossible.
Indeed those aims would seem very near and very achievable as they should.
Because beneath the surface of stats and nations, ideas and language lies the fate of individual human beings in need.
Answering their needs will be the mission of the United Nations in the century to come.
たとえば、アメリカのアマゾンで「takeshima」で検索しても英語で日本の立場を主張した本は見つかりません。

一方、「dokdo」で検索すると多数の英語の本が見つかります。
アメリカのエド・ロイス米国下院外交委員長が慰安婦問題だけでなく、「独島は韓国領土」と発言しましたが
韓国系ロビーももちろんあるでしょうが、そもそも日本の立場を詳細に説明するような書籍がないのです。
これは、慰安婦問題でも同様です。
また他の歴史問題もそうです。(中国や韓国の主張が載った本が山ほど見つかる)
尖閣諸島は竹島ほどではありませんが、中国の主張のものが翻訳されて売られています。
日本と違い、米国は人種差別に厳しいためいわゆるヘイト本は絶対に売ってはいけませんが。
「竹島 ―もうひとつの日韓関係史 (中公新書)」「竹島は日韓どちらのものか」「竹島問題とは何か」
また、慰安婦であれば
「朝鮮出身の帳場人が見た 慰安婦の真実―文化人類学者が読み解く『慰安所日記』」「従軍慰安婦 (岩波新書) 」など良書があります。
「韓国の米軍慰安婦はなぜ生まれたのか―「中立派」文化人類学者による告発と弁明」
「韓国の大量虐殺事件を告発する―ベトナム戦争「参戦韓国軍」の真実」
を翻訳すればよいでしょう。
