"人間の安全保障と福祉が短期的な経済的利益よりも優先されるべきだという原則は新しいものでも過激なものでもありません。"

Simplified Meaning:

It's important to understand that making sure people are safe and happy matters more than making quick money. This idea isn't a new or extreme thought; it's something people have believed for a long time. Imagine a company deciding not to use cheaper materials that could be harmful just to save money. Instead, they choose safer, more expensive materials because they care about people's health. Or think of a government spending money on healthcare and education rather than cutting costs in ways that could hurt citizens in the long run. This shows that prioritizing people's needs and safety is sensible and responsible. By doing this, a society ensures everyone has a better quality of life, even if it means not making as much money right away.
