Understanding this quote
The statement says peace is impossible while people face severe hardship. Empty tables represent families lacking basic necessities, children on the streets represent neglect and insecurity, and young people without hope represent a lost sense of future. Peace therefore means more than the absence of conflict; it also requires people to live with dignity and opportunity.
