The two governments will do everything to go to a solution with mutual benefit and respecting each other's sovereignty,

Freedom goes hand-in-hand with mutual respect.

What concerns me is not the revelation of the truth, which is already common knowledge,

This day marks once and for all times the end of our long suffering and today, too, we affirm our sovereignty as a people.

We all have to embrace in national unity ... avoid radicalism and learn politics.

I am always optimistic about independence in East Timor.
