  1. “The Council should demonstrate its resolve and political will by providing the necessary resources to boost the AU's capability in this domain. Ethiopia stands ready to work towards the realization of the objectives of the partnership between the two organs. As the time for further action has arrived, I wish to state that my delegation looks forward to the effective measures that the Council will take in this regard.”

  2. “My delegation welcomes the joint effort to develop the African Union's capacity to respond to crises on the continent and thus supports the proposal to establish a joint United Nations-African Union team to examine the detailed modalities for implementing the capacity-building programme as a whole. The Council's measures to enhance the predictability, sustainability and flexibility of funding to strengthen the AU peace and security architecture, particularly the peacekeeping operations under the United Nations mandate, are commendable. Yet a lot remains to be done. We would like to express our support for the use of United Nations assessed funding to support United Nations-authorized African Union peacekeeping operations, based on the proposal presented in the Secretary-General's report.”

  3. “It would enable the continental organ to realize its potential to the maximum and to stand on its own by building its capabilities. We share the proposal by the Secretary-General indicating that the time has arrived to elaborate clearer principles and take practical measures to address the challenges of this partnership. The work already begun by the African Union-United Nations Hybrid Operation in Darfur and the African Union Mission in Somalia serve to illustrate the kind of model collaboration that the two need to adopt. Those Missions and the lessons learned could be a basis upon which we can build with regard to what has been achieved thus far.”

  4. “We are seeing that peacemaking and peacekeeping have become a shared responsibility in which the global community has significant roles to play, and thus working with the regional organizations would assist the United Nations in attaining its objectives. The Council, taking this into account, has taken steps in the right direction to accomplish our common responsibilities. My delegation emphasizes the need to accelerate the implementation of the United Nations-African Union 10-year capacity-building programme in a consistent manner. Hence, that venture - or, for that matter, investing in building Africa's peacekeeping capacity - means empowering the regional organ in its handling of the security, stability and future of the continent.”

  5. “The increased attention given to the need to strengthen the partnership and cooperation between the United Nations and the African Union has been a very encouraging development for African states. Ethiopia attaches great importance to the strategic partnership between the United Nations and the African Union. We believe it is critical to harness the synergy in the relevant domains of both organizations, maximizing the relative advantages that each can offer. While we acknowledge that this strategic partnership is established within the context of the Security Council's primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security, the AU's proximity to and familiarity with the problem and its capability would obviously enable it to respond quickly to issues arising in that regard.”

  6. “Thank you, Mr. President, for having convened today's meeting. I would like to express my appreciation to His Excellency Mr. Ban Ki-moon, the Secretary-General, for his report (S/2010/514). I also wish to express my deep appreciation to His Excellency Ambassador Lamamra and his colleagues for the update and for their efforts to consolidate peace in Africa and to coordinate the support for African Union (AU) peacekeeping operations. Early this year, the Secretary-General told the Council, during its open debate on Chapter VIII of the Charter of the United Nations, to envision a world in which regional organizations and the United Nations work together on all continents, in accordance with the principles of the Charter, to prevent, manage and resolve crises (see S/PV.6257).”
