“Our approach has therefore been based on the two guiding principles to which I have just alluded, first, the clear need for enhanced arrangements for consultation and, secondly, the importance of preserving the clear distinction between the roles and responsibilities of the Security Council, the Secretariat and the troop contributors. It was on the basis of these principles that the United Kingdom circulated an informal paper at the end of last week which sought to combine the ideas drawn from the proposals of the Permanent Representatives of Argentina and New Zealand - whose initiative in bringing this issue to the Council we warmly welcome - and those of other delegations, including our own. We are delighted that agreement has now been reached on the basis of that paper.”

“Any blurring of those lines of responsibility would lead to confusion which would be in the interest neither of the troop contributors nor of the furtherance of international peace and security. For the same reason we have, throughout the discussions which led to the adoption of this statement, been concerned to avoid the creation of procedures which might lead to micromanagement of peace-keeping operations by the Security Council or to disruption of the chain of command running through the force commander and the Secretary-General's special representative to the Secretary-General.”

“We have, however, also been concerned that any steps taken to develop, regularize and make more predictable the pattern of consultations should respect the different roles and responsibilities of the Security Council, the Secretary-General and the troop- contributing countries. The decision-making responsibility of the Council as the authorizing body for peace-keeping operations is clear. Equally, it is the Secretary-General to whom peace-keeping personnel are offered by troop- contributing countries and who has a clear responsibility for their management and for the conduct of the operations in the field under the mandates given by the Security Council.”

“When Member States offer their citizens to the United Nations for service in peace-keeping operations they have every right to expect to be informed of developments and to be heard when changes are in prospect. This is not a criticism of existing arrangements but a recognition of the fact that the rapid growth in the scale, complexity and danger of peace- keeping operations has made evident the need for a more regular and predictable pattern of consultations between troop contributors, the Secretariat and Council members. That has been the driving force behind my delegation's approach to this issue.”

“I speak today not just as a member of the Security Council but as the representative of one of the larger troop-contributing countries. At present the United Kingdom has over 4,000 men and women serving around the globe in United Nations peace-keeping operations. They, like others, are deployed in increasingly dangerous operations where, all too often, they face the threat of the hidden mine or the sniper's gun. Like other troop contributors, large and small, we are concerned to have the fullest possible information on the operations in which our men serve and fuller and more regular consultations about the decisions which affect their lives. That is right and proper.”

“But I fear that the biggest and most tragic mistake of all has been the failure of Somali leaders to grasp the opportunity the United Nations offered them to get out of the appalling impasse into which they had manoeuvred themselves.”

“But their ability to provide assistance, both humanitarian and rehabilitation or reconstruction assistance, will depend on the degree of cooperation and security offered by the Somali parties. It is the hope of my Government that the agencies will be able to consider working in those areas of the country where security conditions permit. My Government remains ready to provide assistance on this basis and will continue to support activities under way in north-west Somalia. UNOSOWM's involvement in Somalia has been a sad story of noble aims subverted and undermined by a fundamental lack of cooperation from those the United Nations went to help. Of course mistakes have been made.”

“We cannot deny the potential for regional instability if fighting breaks out once again in Somalia. For their sake, and for that of the people of Somalia, neither the United Nations and the international community nor the regional organizations most directly concerned, nor the neighbouring countries can afford simply to turn their backs on the problem. The resolution we have just adopted does not imply that the United Nations as a whole has decided to abandon Somalia. The Security Council will continue to monitor the situation, and stands willing to encourage the Secretary-General to sustain a facilitating or mediating political presence in Somalia beyond March 1995. We believe that United Nations agencies and non- governmental organizations also have a continuing role to play in Somalia, and we know that they stand ready to play it.”

“In this respect I with to pay tribute on behalf of my Government to all those countries that have contributed personnel to the United Nations Operation, and in particular to those individuals who have lost their lives. With the adoption of today's resolution, the message to the Somali parties is clear. A return to peace and the establishment of viable national institutions can be achieved only by Somalis themselves. We hope that they will make a sustained effort to work together to resolve the political impasse in Somalia. The responsibility for the future peace and prosperity of their country rests firmly in their hands. It is also clear that the decision we have taken today has implications not only for Somalia, but also for other countries of the region.”

“It is in many ways a tragedy that we have been forced to take this decision without having achieved the objectives of the United Nations, and while the future of Somalia remains so uncertain. But the situation on the ground really leaves us little option. We can no longer justify maintaining 15,000 troops in Somalia when they fulfil little function other than to protect themselves. Nor can we justify asking troop- contributors to put their servicemen's lives at risk any longer. The decision to terminate the Operation without clear fulfilment of its objective is all the more disappointing when we consider that many United Nations lives have been lost In Somalia already.”

“We saw great improvements in the humanitarian situation, valuable work on _ the establishment of a police and judicial system and a wide range of successful small-scale reconstruction and rehabilitation projects throughout the country, all of which helped to give a measure of stability and security to the Somali people that they had not experienced for years. But, regrettably, there was no _ corresponding commitment on the part of the Somali faction leaders to achieve political reconciliation, or to cooperate in creating conditions of security. The continued absence of progress on political reconciliation and the lack of cooperation on security issues have left UNOSOM unable to achieve the objectives we set it, and it is against this background that we have taken a decision today to terminate the operation on 31 March 1995.”

“The United Nations sought to bring relief and to restore order and a civil society in a country riven by famine and civil war, with no government and with no functioning administration of any kind. Despite these obstacles, my Government believed that the combined efforts of the international community and the Somali people and their leaders would enable us to complete that mission by March 1995. We made a start. Through the efforts of UNOSOM, the United Nations agencies and non- governmental organizations, as well as the commitment of very many Somali communities and individuals, much progress was made.”

“May I convey my congratulations to you, Madam President, on assuming the presidency, and my thanks to those of my colleagues who have spoken generously about the presidency during the month of October. Before adopting the resolution before us, the Council deliberated long and hard on UNOSOM's future in Somalia. We had been forced to recognize as the months passed that the mission's ability to carry out its mandate was becoming more and more limited, and that we were reaching a point when the Force had no meaningful role to play in Somalia. It is a matter of deep regret to my delegation that that is the situation we now face. It was of course an ambitious mission to begin with.”

“But the Council's support for an expanded United Nations role in Angola will depend crucially on the goodwill of the parties and their implementation in good faith of the peace agreement, including a complete cessation of hostilities. If peace-keepers are to deploy, there must be a peace to keep. We also remain concerned at the serious humanitarian situation in Angola. My Government, along with many others, has contributed generously to the humanitarian relief programmes, and we will continue to offer what assistance we can. The parties, for their part, must do everything possible to remove all obstacles to the delivery of humanitarian relief throughout the country and to ensure the safety and security of relief personnel who are working with the utmost dedication to alleviate the suffering of the Angolan people.”

“Once the agreement has been reached it will make it even less tolerable that they should pursue a twin- track approach of negotiating and fighting at the same time. The Council has now authorized the Secretary- General to restore the United Nations Angola Verification Mission (UNAVEM I) to its previous strength once the agreement is initialled and an effective cease-fire is in place. In addition, the Council has reaffirmed its readiness in due course to consider a recommendation from the Secretary-General for a larger United Nations presence in Angola. By these actions, the Council has demonstrated its continued commitment to Angola.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of the United Kingdom. The Security Council has adopted this resolution at an important and delicate moment in the long-drawn-out peace process in Angola. The British Government is encouraged by the progress made recently in the Lusaka Peace Talks and urges the parties to initial the agreement this weekend and establish and implement an effective and sustainable cease-fire. We remain deeply concerned at the continuation of military hostilities, which have inflicted appalling suffering on the people of Angola and delayed time and again progress in the Lusaka Peace Talks. The Council has on numerous occasions demanded that the parties cease such activities. The parties really must now heed this demand.”

His loss has been deeply felt by the Government and people of the Russian Federation, by the International Court of Justice and by the international community as a whole.
