United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres addresses the parliament of East Timor as the country marks 25 years since a UN-backed vote ended a bloody, decades-long occupation by Indonesian forces and paved the way for it to become an independent nation. "Timor-Leste has greatly inspired the UN in mediating solidarity at the international level," Guterres says, adding that the nation has "evolved from a host country for peacekeeping forces to a country contributing personnel to UN peacekeeping missions in other countries".
