1. “I should like to stress the importance we attach to UNITA's and the Government's continuing to cooperate fully with the international humanitarian relief effort. The international community will show its full solidarity with Angola through the coming renewal of the mandate of UNAVEM. 111. But this solidarity can only support the efforts of the Government and UNITA, whose will to implement the peace process and to engage in genuine reconciliation will remain decisive.”

2. “Norway has played its part, and remains committed to continue to do so, through substantial contributions both in terms of humanitarian aid and long-term development assistance. The planned contribution for 1996 is approximately $16 million, which equals the 1995 contribution. As far as possible, long-term development assistance should be designed and managed with a particular view to reinforcing the peace process. Continued support for the reconstruction of the country is, however, contingent on the demonstrated commitment of the Angolan parties to resolve their differences peacefully and to achieve national reconciliation. In the humanitarian field, mine clearance will remain a priority area. The reports of deteriorating security for humanitarian activities, especially in UNITA-controlled areas, are disturbing.”

3. “We have noted with appreciation the Secretary-General's observations concerning the positive steps taken by the Government side during the last few weeks. However, the numerous delays in the implementation of the Lusaka Protocol remain a matter of grave concern. It is now particularly important to avoid further delays in the crucial areas of troop disengagement and the quartering of former combatants. We therefore urge the parties to the Protocol, and in particular UNITA, to continue to commit themselves fully and faithfully to implementing its provisions and to respect and maintain the cease-fire throughout the country. Angola needs the support and the encouragement of the international community.”

4. “Allow me first to congratulate you, Madam, on your assumption of the office of President of the Security Council for the month of February, and to express our appreciation to your predecessor, the Ambassador of the United Kingdom, Sir John Weston. I would also like to commend the Council for convening this orientation debate. Since the operations started, Norway has participated in UNAVEM. II and III with military observers. We support the renewal of the mandate and we will continue our participation. Much remains to be done within the framework of the "Acordos de Paz", the Lusaka Protocol and the relevant Security Council resolutions, in order to give full effect to the peace settlement in Angola.”
