1. “This dialogue, involving all of the country’s social classes, enabled the Government to conduct an exchange of views with every element of our society on their concerns, with the aim of arriving at suitable solutions. Furthermore, the Government of Burkina Faso, within the framework of strengthening the rule of law and improving and reinforcing our system of political and institutional governance, established an advisory council for political reform aimed at continuing with the political and institutional reforms that began several years ago.”

2. “The Government of Burkina Faso offers its sincere and willing cooperation to the South Sudanese people and authorities. Much has happened since our last session to affect the development of the world and our States. Some countries have been victims of natural catastrophe; others have experienced financial, political and social crises. At the beginning of the year my country, Burkina Faso, also had to deal with social demands arising from the difficult national and economic situation. Fortunately, those demands, which were followed by social unrest, were resolved, thanks to a sustained and inclusive dialogue initiated by President Compaoré.”

3. “Burkina Faso fully supports this choice and is committed to sharing with the international community its experience in peace negotiations, particularly with 21 11-51670 regard to the role of mediator for the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) that President Blaise Compaoré played in settling the crises in Côte d’Ivoire and Guinea. I would also like to commend your predecessor, Mr. Joseph Deiss, on the efficiency with which he guided the work of the sixty-fifth session. And I congratulate Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on his successful reappointment to the leadership of the United Nations. I wish him health and every success for his second term. I salute the Republic of South Sudan’s achievement of independence and international sovereignty, and welcome it to the great family that is the United Nations.”

4. “The annual general debate of the General Assembly always serves as an opportunity for the international community to consider the state of the world through a series of exchanges and thus combine innovative ideas to support our desire to create a community that will ensure a better future for all. Burkina Faso always participates in this meeting of the world partnership with great interest. Before I go any further, please allow me, Mr. President, to offer you sincere and warm congratulations from the Government and people of Burkina Faso on your election to the presidency of the General Assembly at its sixty-sixth session, for which you have chosen the theme of strengthening mediation as a means of preventing and settling conflicts.”
