  1. “As the Mexican presidency draws to an end, I know I speak on behalf of all Council members in wishing the delegation of the Niger the very best for its presidency of the Council during the month of December. I now invite Council members to informal consultations to continue our discussion on the subject. The meeting rose at noon.”

  2. “There are no more names inscribed on the list of speakers. My thanks again to Ms. Ero. Before adjourning the meeting, given that this is the final scheduled meeting of the Council for the month of November, I wish to express Mexico’s appreciation to the members of the Council and to the Secretariat for all the support they have given us. It has certainly been an intense month, during which we have achieved consensus on various important issues that fall within the Council’s field of competence. We could not have done it alone, or without the hard work, support and positive contributions of all delegations and the Secretariat, including the conference staff, interpreters, translators, verbatim reporters and security staff. I would like to extend my thanks to them all.”

  3. “Mexico welcomes the latest meetings of the Ad Hoc Liaison Committee for the Coordination of the International Assistance to Palestinians and the Middle East Quartet. I reiterate my delegation’s firm conviction that the only solution to the conflict is a two-State solution that addresses Israel’s legitimate concerns and allows for the consolidation of a politically and economically viable Palestinian State, living side by side in peace with Israel within secure and internationally recognized borders, while maintaining the special status of Jerusalem in accordance with international law and the relevant Security Council and General Assembly resolutions. Finally, I take this opportunity to wish all our Jewish friends around the world a happy Chanukah. I now resume my functions as President of the Council.”

  4. “Mexico calls on the parties to respect human rights and refrain from acts of repression against activists, journalists and human rights defenders. We condemn all acts of violence, in particular attacks in the Old City of Jerusalem, as well as acts of provocation and attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinian civilians. We condemn the 17 November attack on a school south of Nablus. We are concerned that such acts also encourage violence and are used as an excuse for further attacks against Israeli citizens. We urge both Israeli and Palestinian leaders to refrain from the use of inflammatory rhetoric and any acts of incitement. The current cycle of reciprocal violence must end as soon as possible.”

  5. “Secondly, with regard to Gaza, we applaud mediation efforts, especially by Egypt, to consolidate the ceasefire. We also acknowledge Qatar’s financial contributions to the population in the Gaza Strip. We welcome the easing of restrictions by Israel to allow the regular and predictable flow of basic necessities to the Palestinian population and call for the definitive lifting of the blockade. A prosperous and peaceful Gaza means security for Israel too, so all efforts must bear that vision in mind. Thirdly, as we heard earlier, the designation of six Palestinian civil society organizations as terrorist groups reduces the democratic space and constitutes a violation of human rights. On 29 July, Israeli law enforcement authorities raided the offices of Defence for Children International.”

  6. “I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Mexico. I thank Mr. Wennesland and Ms. Ero for their briefings. As we heard this morning, unfortunately, the cycle of violence in the Middle East continues and there really is no lasting solution in sight. I will focus on three points, namely, the advancement of Israeli settlements, the ceasefire in Gaza and the human rights situation. First, Mexico condemns, as it has in the past, the recent authorization of the construction of new housing units under the justification of the so-called natural growth of Israeli settlements. Settlement activities, including the confiscation and demolition of property, as well as the construction and expansion of settlements, are illegal under international law and represent an obstacle to the two-State solution.”

Flashing lights on the collars of the microphones will prompt speakers to bring their remarks to a close after four minutes. I now give the floor to the representative of Croatia.”
