“Accordingly, my country announced its pledge of $100 million at the donor conference held in Brussels from 24 to 25 April in support of Syria. That brings the total amount of aid that Saudi Arabia has provided to its Syrian brothers in Syria and in neighbouring countries to almost $1 billion to date. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia reaffirms the need to end the tragedy experienced by the Syrian people. It is crucial that we move towards a peaceful solution based on the first Geneva communique (S/2012/522, annex) and resolution 2254 (2015). The international community must meet its obligations with regard to the protection of civilians in Syria.”

“That crime demonstrates that the Syrian authorities have not discontinued the use of chemical weapons against civilians in Syria. Such a crime calls for a serious response and firm stance on the part of the international community to end the human suffering and ensure that the perpetrators be held accountable and punished. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia once again calls for delivering immediate humanitarian assistance to those in need throughout Syria regardless of their race, religion or political affiliation. It is necessary that all those detained and kidnapped be liberated. It is also critical that all refugees and displaced persons be allowed to return to their homes with dignity. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has expressed that it is keen to provide its assistance to the brotherly people of Syria to alleviate their suffering.”

“29) According to those reports, Iran is flagrantly violating resolutions 2216 (2015) and 2231 (2015). It is high time that the Council take a firm stand with regard to Iran and urge the international community to avoid complacency in the face of those acts of aggression and terrorism, which are undermining regional and international peace and security. It is also high time to deal with Hizbullah seriously and lift the lid off its terrorist operations in Syria, Lebanon and other parts of the world, and combat the flow of illegal arms into Hizbullah's hands and its practices, which run contrary to the Lebanese Constitution. With regard to Syria, Saudi Arabia condemns the horrific chemical-weapon attack perpetrated by the Syrian regime in Douma in eastern Ghouta, which led to the deaths of dozens of innocent women and children.”

“Iran provides the first line of support to Hizbullah - a terrorist group that flaunts its arrogance and dominance in Lebanon, wages war in Syria and perpetrates the most extreme killings, siege and ethnic cleansing. Iran is supporting the Houthi militias in Yemen and providing them with arms and missiles that are, in turn, fired against my country. The number of missiles launched so far against Saudi Arabia has reached 125. Independent United Nations reports have demonstrated that the missiles fired against my country were manufactured in Iran.”

“Saudi Arabia also underscores its strategic preference for peace and the need to settle the Israeli-Arab conflict in accordance with the Arabic Peace Initiative, introduced by my country in 2002. King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, reiterated his firm stance on that unchanged and principled position, when he announced at the twenty ninth Arab Summit, held recently in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that "the Palestinian question is our first cause, and would remain our first cause until the Palestinian people enjoy all their legitimate rights, in particular the establishment of their independent State with cast Jerusalem as its capital". Iran continues to interfere in the internal affairs of Arab States and foment, support and embrace terrorism.”

“We call for the establishment of an international investigative commission to shed light on the events of 30 March and thereafter, and to hold Israel accountable for the murder of unarmed civilian protesters, and let the perpetrators of those crimes be subjected to deterring. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia emphasizes the centrality of the Palestinian cause in relation to the Arab nation, as well as the importance of the Arab identity of Jerusalem, the right of the State of Palestine to govern all its territories occupied since 1967, including Jerusalem, and the urgent need for Israel to withdraw from all occupied Arab territories, including the Syrian Arab Golan.”

“The ray of justice is guaranteed by international resolutions and charters. The ray of justice that those boys never saw because of bullets fired at them and at their friends by the occupation soldiers of the occupation forces in cold blood, without a semblance of human conscience. The Palestinians have claimed nothing other than the right to life, the right to return to their lands, which they were forced to leave, the right to self- determination and establishing their independent State with Jerusalem as its capital and the right to demand that the Security Council enforces its resolutions pertaining to the protection of the Palestinian people, in particular resolutions 605 (1987) and 904 (1994).”

“Mr. Al-Moualimi (Saudi Arabia) (spoke in Arabic): Allow me, at the outset, to congratulate you, Mr. President, upon your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for this month. I wish you every success in your work. I would like also to express my sincere condolences to cote d'Ivoire on the passing of our colleague Mr. Bernard Tanoh-Boutchoue, Permanent Representative of Cote d'Ivoire, and to wish his family patience and solace. Alaa Zamli, Hussein Madi and Mohammed Ayoub were all 14-year-old boys. They were in the flower of their youth. Another 40 children like them were singing patriotic songs that included the following lyrics: "Return is a right like the sun that rises in our hearts and minds; "The ray of justice will lead us to Palestine and Jerusalem".”
