It is with deep sadness that I convey sincere condolences, as representative of the Republic of the Philippines, on the passing of Mr. Benjamin Ferencz, an advocate for the rule of law and the peaceful settlement of international disputes. His legacy as a credible prosecutor at the Nuremberg Crimes Trials will always be remembered. He has staunchly asserted that the ‘spirit of Nuremberg lives on,’ despite obstacles. ‘It is increasingly recognized that international disputes can and must be settled without the use of armed might,’ he said. In the community of peace-loving nations, his message, as someone who lived through the evils and inhumanities of war, will continue to resonate: that the best way to serve humanity is to eliminate warmaking itself and that – 'law is always better than war.'
