In destroying the ivory,
we reject once and for all, those who think that
our natural heritage
can be sold for money. Before you,
ladies and gentlemen, the largest haul of ivory ever to be destroyed
in this manner. Poaching and trafficking
in wildlife, is now a branch
of international crime. The fight against it will
be won by alliances across
nations and continents. The principle is clear enough: Ivory belongs to our elephants. [applause]
