馬爾蒂·阿赫蒂薩里為芬蘭前總統(tǒng),2008年獲諾貝爾和平獎(jiǎng)。同年獲“聯(lián)合國(guó)和平獎(jiǎng)”。大半生活躍在戰(zhàn)區(qū),為飽受戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)滄桑的人們帶去和平。馬爾蒂曾是一名教師,并稱教師生涯促進(jìn)了外交事業(yè)發(fā)展。
Ahtisaari was born in 1937 in Finland. When he was a child, his home region was taken over by the Soviet Union. He and his family had to move many times. He said this experience gave him sympathy for displaced people. He became a teacher in 1959 and a year later started his travels. He took up a position in Pakistan to start a physical education school.
1937年,阿赫蒂薩里出生在芬蘭。兒時(shí),故土遭前蘇聯(lián)占領(lǐng)。隨即與家人四處奔波。對(duì)于同樣經(jīng)歷過(guò)顛沛流離的人,他表示非常同情。1959年,他成為了一名教師,一年后開(kāi)始遠(yuǎn)行。前往巴基斯坦設(shè)立體育學(xué)校。
Ahtisaari returned to Finland in 1963 and became interested in developing countries. In 1965, he joined Finland’s Ministry for Foreign Affairs. He was sent to Namibia in 1989 as the UN Special Representative to bring peace to the country. He achieved this and became an honorary Namibian citizen. Ahtisaari returned to Finland and served as president between 1994-2000.

Ahtisaari said his greatest triumph was bringing peace to Namibia. He also played a key role in the Northern Ireland peace process, the Aceh region of Indonesia, and Kosovo. More recently, he has mediated between different sides in Iraq. Ahtisaari is a strong believer that all countries can achieve peace. “Every conflict can be solved,” he said.
據(jù)阿赫蒂薩里所說(shuō),他的最大成就就是為納米比亞帶去和平。還在北愛(ài)爾蘭和平進(jìn)程、印尼亞齊省以及科索沃問(wèn)題發(fā)揮重要作用。近日,他又在伊拉克雙邊斡旋。他堅(jiān)信所有國(guó)家都能實(shí)現(xiàn)和平。他稱:“沒(méi)有解決不了的爭(zhēng)端?!?/p>
