  1. When the time comes, the modalities of the international presence in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia will probably have to be adapted to take account of developments within both the country and the region. However, this should not be rushed into. The time-frame in the draft resolution seems, under the circumstances, appropriate. For all these reasons, France will vote in favour of the draft resolution.

  2. The example of UNPREDEP can thus prove useful in avoiding the spread of crises in other parts of the world, especially in Africa, where the need for preventive deployment by the United Nations is in many cases every bit as justified as in the case of the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. France shares the opinion expressed by the Secretary-General in his last report on the need to maintain UNPREDEP'S presence. Admittedly, the situation in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and in the region is more encouraging in some areas today. However, there are still causes for concern, particularly in the light of risks linked to the Kosovo situation.

  3. Mr. Dejammet (France) (interpretation from French): Naturally I would like to express my complete confidence in what we are sure will be the successful results of your presidency, Sir, and our great appreciation of the way in which the Council's work last month was conducted under the presidency of the Permanent Representative of China. The United Nations Preventive Deployment Force (UNPREDEP) is a success. Its work has helped keep the crises in the Balkan region from spilling over into the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. The success of this mission demonstrates the importance of a United Nations operation in preventing the outbreak of some conflicts.
