  1. “We reiterate our call on the Security Council to assume its responsibilities to work towards the establishment of peace and security in the Sudan, rather than raise new issues and fabricate and inflate new crises in my country. We hope that the Council will act appropriately. We seek its support and assistance, and not further problems or violations in this matter.”

  2. “However, we call on the Security Council to address the situation in Darfur in a more comprehensive manner that takes into consideration the fact that the political approach represents the optimal way to resolve the problem. All other aspects - humanitarian, security and even justice - are merely being exploited by some as pretexts for the current action of the ICC. That action now represents the main threat to any political settlement. We are all aware of the statements issued by the various rebel groups following the ICC's decision and the ensuing lack of security and abductions of humanitarian workers providing essential assistance. The ICC's decision came at a time when the political process was on the verge of bearing fruit.”

  3. “The organizations that have been expelled number 13 out of a total of some 118 and represent a mere 7 per cent of those working in the Sudan. Thus, it is false to depict the situation as if the Sudan had expelled all organizations. The decision made by the President of the Sudan to "Sudanize" volunteer work in the country should be supported, rather than denigrated, by the United Nations and the Security Council. The decision is based on the premise that the State should assume its full responsibility in this matter. I must stress here in this Chamber that the Government of the Sudan reiterates its full respect for all the agreements and treaties it has signed with the United Nations to facilitate humanitarian work in Darfur, including with respect to the fast-track provision of emergency relief to those in need.”

  4. “These people have sought to fabricate and inflate a problem with respect to the decision of the Government of the Sudan to expel a number of non-governmental organizations that have crossed every red line and dared to prejudice the sovereignty of the country and take advantage of the kindness of the Sudanese people. As we have heard, these organizations are the guests of the Sudan - a fact that my country has taken fully into account. However, guests are bound by the rules of hospitality to remain in the places specifically assigned to them and not to enter the private rooms of their host. The decision of the Government of the Sudan is a legitimate sovereign decision that we will never reverse. It is not up for discussion, especially since the Government of the Sudan has not expelled every organization working in my country.”

  5. “Djibril Bassole, will give a comprehensive briefing on the political process and other relevant actions concerning the settlement of the Darfur problem. It seems to me that the political track is not a priority for some people who are seeking to fan the flames and invent crises in an open attempt to divert the international community's attention from the broad international and regional rejection of the legally and politically flawed approach adopted by the so-called International Criminal Court (ICC) against the Sudanese State, Government and people.”

  6. “Mr. Abdelmannan (Sudan) (spoke in Arabic): At the outset, I should like to congratulate you, Sir, on 3 your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council this month. I also welcome the interest that your presidency has focused on the affairs of our African continent, most recently with respect to support for the African Union's peacekeeping capacities. This demonstrates the wisdom of your brotherly country, the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, as it assumes the presidency of the African Union, the United Nations principal partner in Darfur. My delegation has closely followed the circumstances that have prompted the convening of today's meeting of the Security Council at a time when the Council's programme includes consultations on Darfur, scheduled for 26 March, at which the Joint African Union-United Nations Chief Mediator for Darfur, Mr.”
