Madeleine K. Albright
Jsem poctěna a hrdá na obrovský úspěch Aspenu, který se projevuje podporou mladých lídrů, rozvíjením nových nápadů a myšlenek nebo navazováním potřebných kontaktů. Věřím, že se Aspen Institute CE rozroste v opravdovou celoregionální platformu podporující otevřenou a svobodnou diskusi, kterou v dnešní době tak zoufale potřebujeme. Madeleine Albright, bývalá čestná spolupředsedkyně americké rady Aspenu
