On Friday, however, he did take the time to honor one important event, releasing an in-depth video message to mark International Youth Day, the United Nations awareness day for cultural and legal issues facing younger generations. This year, the U.N. is promoting action to achieve sustainable development goals across all generations.
He also discussed his decades-long involvement in causes that support youth transitioning to adulthood.
