  1. “We also support the proposed reconfiguration of the security forces of the mission. The changes actually mirror positive developments on the ground, while maintaining the same overall size of the contingent, which is the correct approach to take given the still- fragile security situation.”

  2. “Every effort must continue to be made to ensure that Haiti can soon rely on security forces capable of operating in a professional and autonomous manner. The quick-impact projects executed by MINUSTAH have proven increasingly important for the lives of many Haitians. As recommended in the most recent report of the Economic and Social Council's Ad Hoc Advisory Group on Haiti (E/2009/105), it would be important to envision possibilities for greater synergy between the mandate of the mission and the development needs of Haiti. In the light of the foregoing, Brazil welcomes the Secretary-General's recommendation to extend the mandate of MINUSTAH for one year. We have consistently indicated that Brazilian forces are ready to stay in Haiti for as long as the Haitian Government and the Security Council deem necessary.”

  3. “It is imperative to address the current infrastructure bottlenecks, attract private investment and generate new jobs. We are confident that President Clinton will contribute to disseminating this vision and encourage the fulfilment of the pledges that will make available the resources needed by the country. Brazil very much praises the excellent work of MINUSTAH, in particular its role in maintaining stability throughout the country and supporting the Government's efforts to build institutional capacity. The latter task is of crucial importance. Without capacity-building, our collective and individual political and financial investment in Haiti will be lost and United Nations success short-lived. This is especially true in the case of the Haitian National Police.”

  4. “Increased coordination among donors and full alignment of their aid with Haiti's national priorities are indispensable. It is also vital that the prompt and full disbursement of pledges made in April at the Washington donors conference be guaranteed. Such partnership is particularly relevant in addressing what the Secretary-General describes in his report as the most acute problem in Haiti's human rights landscape: the lack of progress in the realization of economic, social and cultural rights of the people. We all know that the progress achieved in the area of security is not enough to ensure the country's stability. The key to the sustainability of our common peacekeeping and stabilization efforts is employment generation. Peace will thrive only once poverty and deprivation are substantially reduced.”

  5. “There is a feeling that a priceless window of opportunity has been opened and conditions seem ripe for the country to consolidate the gains achieved in recent years and lay the foundation for long-term development. For this positive scenario to become reality, the Haitian authorities and the international community must renew and improve their partnership. The political and economic leadership of Haiti must show practical commitment to the well-being of the people. This implies delivering a modicum of public services to all Haitians and, just as important, putting aside differences in order to agree on and implement the constitutional and other reforms that will ensure adequate governance in the years to come. For its part, the international community must improve the quality and quantity of its assistance to Haiti.”

  6. “The holding of elections for the Senate, the achievements in the consideration of the legislative agenda, the enhanced dialogue on the main national questions through presidential commissions and the gradual strengthening of domestic institutions are all encouraging indicators. Also noteworthy are the domestic macroeconomic stability and the positive forecast for economic growth in 2009. The cancellation of Haiti's bilateral and multilateral debt is yet another positive indication of progress. Last but not least, the personal involvement of former President Clinton will certainly contribute to keeping Haiti high on the international agenda. All of this allows for the cautious optimism that many, including the Secretary-General, have expressed with regard to Haiti.”

  7. “His appointment as the United Nations Special Envoy for Haiti attests to the importance that the Secretary-General attaches to that country. Mr. Clinton's generous decision to put his remarkable prestige, leadership and experience in the service of the Haitian people is truly commendable. I would also like to thank Special Representative of the Secretary-General Hedi Annabi for his informative briefing. Brazil would like to associate itself with the comments made by the representative of Uruguay on behalf of the Group of Friends of Haiti. Brazil welcomes the recent positive developments in Haiti, as highlighted by the Secretary- General in his latest report (S/2009/439).”

  8. “I first wish to congratulate the United States on its assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for the month of September. I also commend your delegation, Madam President, for holding this open debate well in advance of the scheduled renewal of the mandate of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH). This meeting provides an opportunity for the wider membership to express its views to the Council in a timely manner. I warmly welcome Prime Minister Michele Duvivier Pierre-Louis to the Council today. Her outstanding leadership has certainly contributed to the recent success in Haiti. 1 thank her for her statement. I am also pleased to welcome President Clinton among us today.”
