“Moreover, special consideration should be accorded urgently to the humanitarian needs of the Libyan people to exercise, at this time, their religious rights and to have access to facilities for medical treatment abroad, along with other urgent matters. We also call upon all parties concerned to show more flexibility and wisdom towards reaching a just and peaceful settlement to this crisis.”

“We would like to take this opportunity to commend Libya's readiness to cooperate with efforts to combat terrorism and to attain a peaceful settlement to this crisis through constructive dialogue and by ensuring the prosecution of the suspects of these tragic events before neutral and impartial tribunals. Finally, in concurrence with the initiatives and proposals submitted by the Organization of African Unity and the League of Arab States - and in view of the humanitarian sufferings of the people of Libya as a result of the continuation of the economic sanctions imposed against the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya and of the families of the victims in the aftermath of this crisis - we believe that the time has come for the Security Council to suspend its sanctions regime, in light of the two Judgments of the International Court of Justice.”

“While reaffirming our commitment to the principles of the relevant international laws and resolutions of the Security Council regarding prosecuting the perpetrators of these crimes, we would like to call the attention of the international community to the initiative proposed by the League of Arab States and the Organization of African Unity in this regard. Justice must be served for the families of the victims and in the achievement of a solution deemed acceptable to all parties concerned. Over the past seven years of this crisis several initiatives have been made with the goal of achieving a peaceful solution to this problem. However, this crisis is still going on, with all its negative impact on the people of the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, on the families of the victims, and on the neighbouring countries as well.”

“Other regional groups such as the Organization of African Unity, the Non-Aligned Movement and the Organization of the Islamic Conference have also supported the position of the League of Arab States in this regard and have exhibited a similar concern towards alleviating the humanitarian sufferings of the people as a result of the sanctions imposed against the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya in accordance with the relevant Security Council resolutions. The increasing worldwide attention given to this matter reflects the profound concern and preoccupation of the international community with the gravity of this crisis.”

“For its part, the League of Arab States, as one of the international forums responsible for achieving peace and security in the region, has expressed its firm readiness to cooperate with the Secretary-General of the United Nations and with the Security Council to reach a peaceful solution to this crisis through mandating the Committee of Seven to follow up the developments of this crisis, to exert every effort to prevent its escalation, and to find a just and peaceful solution to this problem in accordance with relevant international law. In his statement, the Permanent Observer for the League of Arab States to the United Nations explicitly stated the position of the League in this regard.”

“The Security Council is convening today to consider a very crucial matter regarding the Lockerbie crisis, which claimed the lives of hundreds of innocent people on board a Pan Am plane. Having expressed its deep concern over the occurrence of such a tragic event, the Sultanate of Oman firmly condemns all forms of terrorism and stands beside the efforts of the international community aimed at eliminating this dangerous phenomenon, which targets the lives of innocent people. There is no doubt that the security and the safety of civilians and of civil aviation are of paramount importance. The international community expressed its deep grief and sympathy towards the victims of this tragic event.”

“Allow me to extend to you, Mr. Minister, my sincere congratulations on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for this month. I am confident that your diplomatic skills and vast experience will lead the work of the Council to a successful conclusion. I should like to take this opportunity to pay special tribute to your predecessor, His Excellency Ambassador Denis Dangue Rewaka of the Republic of Gabon, and to the members of his delegation for the exemplary manner in which they steered the work of the Council in the previous month. May I also take this opportunity to welcome the presence of His Excellency the Minister of the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya as well as the seriousness shown by him and his Government during the deliberations in this important debate of the Security Council.”

“We appeal to you, Sir, and to the members of the Council to demonstrate your firm positions and to send a strong, collective message to the Israeli Government to reverse its latest decision.”

“We firmly believe that the Israeli Government's decision to build new settlements in East Jerusalem is, to say the least, wrong, illegal and above all, inconsistent with the spirit and objectives of the peace process. Therefore, once again, we call on the Israeli Government seriously to reconsider its decision and to act in a more responsible manner. If Israel truly believes in peace, this is the right time to prove and demonstrate it to the entire international community. The Israeli policy on settlements in the occupied territories is a means of wasting time and prolonging the implementation of the principles of the peace process. This should not be allowed to happen.”

“Peace is a two-way track and it is a contract that has been accepted and signed by the parties concerned. The least to be expected is the full implementation of and adherence to what has been agreed upon. If the Israeli Government believes that only the Palestinians should be expected to live up to Israeli expectations, then it is mistaken. It is about time, in our opinion, for this Israeli Government to live up to its commitment by refraining from such acts and to move forward in the peace process on all tracks. Finally, I would like to conclude my intervention by reiterating my Government's support for the peace process and for a durable peace in the Middle East that will alleviate the suffering of the people of the region ---Â« a peace that will minimize the risk of confrontation and move beyond lip service to concrete steps.”

“Taking this decision now, in our opinion, will not only create a volatile situation, endangering the peace process, but will likely give extremist elements from both sides the opportunity to jeopardiZe it. It is our view that this record needs to be straightened out once and for all with a clear, united message from this Council that would reaffirm its unreserved support for the peace process in accordance with the principle of land for peace and relevant Security Council resolutions. In our view, the latest decision of the Israeli Government is illegal and ought to be rejected categorically. It was very encouraging to note that all the statements of the members of the Security Council expressed the view that settlements were dangerous to the peace process.”

“In fact, the latest decision of the Government of Israel to built new Security Council 3745th meeting (Resumption l) Fifty~second year 6 March 1997 settlements in East Jerusalem in the area of Jabal Abu Ghneim is not only counter-productive, but a flagrant breach of the agreed principles of the peace process and of the relevant Security Council resolutions, particularly resolutions 242 (1967), 252 (1968) and 338 (1973), which reaffirmed the illegality of all measures taken by Israel aimed at changing the demographic composition of the Holy City and its status. Without a doubt, the question of Jerusalem is of particular importance and sensitivity to the overall settlement of the Middle East crisis, which is one of the major reasons why this whole question of determining the final status of Jerusalem was left aside for a while.”

“It is quite comforting at times to listen to some of the statements issued by the Israeli Government concerning how peace ought to be articulated and agreement implemented. But at the same time, it is shocking to view the record of this Government in translating its words into actions.”

“After the signing of the historic peace agreements between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, a new hope touched the hearts of millions of people in the Middle East: a hope for peace, tranquillity, stability, harmony and coexistence, marking a new beginning for this war- ravaged region. My country, along with many other peace-loving nations such as your own, Sir, spared no effort to strengthen the foundation of this peaceful trend in order to make it more solid and sustainable. Unfortunately, sweet hopes are never lasting and we are here once again resorting to the Security Council for guidance and action to salvage what might be damaged by one of the parties to and partners of the peace process.”

May I also avail myself of this opportunity to pay a special tribute to your predecessor, Ambassador Mahugu of Kenya, for the exemplary manner in which he steered the work of the Council in the month of February.”

“We also hope that the Implementation Force (IFOR) will act according to its mandate, including by apprehending all those indicted by the International criminal Tribunal. With that hope, my delegation has decided to vote in favour of the draft resolution before us. Finally, I would like to associate my delegation with those who spoke before us in saying that there should be no selectivity in the implementation of Security Council resolutions, be it in the former Yugoslavia or anywhere else in the world.”

“We believe we owe it to the people of Bosnia to investigate the fate of their relatives, something that will serve as a living memory for generations to come. Ironically, even while we deliberate this issue here today, detention camps still exist throughout the territory of Bosnia, and atrocities continue to be committed. We believe this should come to an end immediately and that the parties concerned should fully live up to their commitments in their entirety. Today, we appeal to friends and all those in the international community involved in overseeing implementation of the Peace Agreement to make sure that the Serbs stop at once the commission of acts against fellow human beings. We hope that in the days to come we will see some concrete steps in this regard.”

“Furthermore, they will support the work of the International criminal Tribunal by reiterating the demand that all States and parties in the region of the former Yugoslavia comply fully and in good faith with the obligations contained in operative paragraph 4 of resolution 827 (1993) and create the conditions essential for the Tribunal to perform the task for which it has been created, including the establishment of offices of the Tribunal when it deems this necessary. My delegation is aware that this draft resolution will not bring back to life those thousands of people who were killed in Srebrenica and Zepa and other areas. Nevertheless, we are of the opinion this is the very minimum the international community can do and should do at this stage.”

“In fact, justice should and must prevail in the end, and those who have committed crimes against humanity must be brought to justice and held responsible in respect of such acts. In fact, through the draft resolution before us, members of the Council have the opportunity to express, in a united voice and in the strongest possible terms, their condemnation of all violations of international humanitarian law and human rights committed in the territory of the Republic of Bosnia, demanding that all concerned, particularly the Serbs, comply fully with their obligations in this regard.”

“A few days ago the international community witnessed a truly historic achievement in Paris with the official signing of the Peace Agreement by all the warring parties. While on the one hand we are of the opinion that efforts should not be spared to give the needed momentum for this process to work, we believe, on the other hand, that investigating these crimes is a generically linked component in making the Peace Agreement viable and credible to all the parties. Crimes of this magnitude, including summary executions, rapes, mass expulsions, arbitrary detentions, forced labour and large-scale disappearances, attest to nothing but the wickedness of one human against another fellow human, which in our opinion should not be ignored at all.”

“For over four months, since the events in Srebrenica, the United Nations and other humanitarian organizations, including the International Committee of the Red Cross, have been trying to gain access to the area, as well as to other areas where specific accounts of violations of humanitarian law are reported to have taken place. In fact, despite the repeated calls by the Council on numerous occasions, in both informal and formal meetings, the party concerned failed to grant such access. To this day, the story of Srebrenica and many other areas in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina - such as Zepa, Banja Luka, Sanski Most, Bihac and Maglaj - remain a living nightmare that needs to be addressed.”

“More than four months ago, during the month of July, there was a city called Srebrenica with more than 8,000 inhabitants, mainly Bosnian Muslims. Both the city and its inhabitants vanished before the eyes of the international community in one of the most brutal crimes in modern history. Substantial evidence supports the conclusion that Bosnian Serb soldiers are responsible for this crime of genocide. This is another heavy price which has to be paid by the Bosnians for their freedom and independence and for having relied on the will of the international community to protect them from the Serbian aggression that seems to haunt them in every corner of their country.”

“We call on the parties to fulfil in good faith the commitments entered into in that Agreement, stressing that compliance with it is of vital importance in achieving a lasting peace and the creation of conditions conducive to the reconstruction and development of that country. The days to come will test the intentions shown by the parties at Paris with regard to their commitments to this valuable peace. Oman will vote in favour of the draft resolution before us on the understanding that the Peace Agreement will be respected at all times, by all the parties concerned, in its entirety, and that they will refrain from any acts that might undermine the Peace Agreement.”

“We believe that much support should be given to the work of the International Tribunal in order to help it discharge its mandate effectively. Oman welcomes the latest achievements, which have been long- awaited, and in this regard we commend the efforts of the Government of the United States in having hosted the proximity talks that led to the initial signing of the Peace Agreement at Dayton, Ohio. Our appreciation also goes to all those countries and organizations that participated at some stage in a collaborative effort to establish peace in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, particularly that of the Contact Group which has seriously invested so much effort and time, the results of which we can all witness now, at last.”

“Thus, we believe justice must be exercised and mistakes of the past should therefore be corrected, and those involved, wherever they are in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina or elsewhere in the area of the former Yugoslavia, if they have committed crimes against humanity or massive Violations of international humanitarian law, should bear full responsibility for their acts. War criminals should not in any way roam freely before the eyes of the victims who have suffered under them; otherwise, we will risk a return to chaos that might lead to events similar to those we have witnessed in the past. Through resolution 827 (1993) of 25 May 1993, the international community established an International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia to investigate these violations and prosecute those responsible for crimes and acts against humanity.”

“We cannot fail to remind the parties that the road to peace is not going to be easy. It is, rather, going to be tough and challenging. What has occurred in that part of the world over the last few years is greater than that which can be changed in days, months or even years. That chapter of history cannot be changed, but let us all ensure that the future will be made better and safer. Many say that this Agreement is a new page in the chapter of events in Bosnia. We, on our part, say that this page does not mean changing to a new book.”

“Bosnia will surely remain in our memory as a symbol of a nation's unwavering defiance of tyranny, hatred and "ethnic cleansing". The Bosnian nation wrote its independence with the blood of its people, and, undoubtedly, that is something the international community cannot and should not forget. We cannot add much to what has been said and what will be said, here, today, or in Paris, except to remind the parties once again that they should live up to their commitments, for the world cannot see this Agreement violated or not adhered to in full. The price that has been paid so far is greater than words can describe. "To save succeeding generations from the scourge of war": With these words the Charter of the United Nations begins, and with these words, we believe, a new era should begin in war-ravaged Bosnia.”

“Allow me, Sir, on behalf of the delegation of Oman, to congratulate you and your delegation on your assumption of the presidency of the Council for this month. We assure you of our cooperation at all times. We also appreciate the kind words addressed to me and my delegation. My delegation received with great joy the good news from Paris on the official signing of the Peace Agreement between the parties to the conflict in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It has been nearly four years since the war broke out in that part of the world, resulting in the deaths of more than a quarter of a million people, and almost half of that nation's population have become either refugees or displaced persons. Words cannot describe the events that occurred in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.”
