  2. “Ashton, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, wrote to Mr. J alili, Secretary of the Iranian Supreme National Security Council, reiterating her willingness to meet with Iran as soon as possible. At the same time, all parties continue to work actively to promote the implementation of the Tehran Research Reactor agreement signed by Brazil, Turkey and Iran. Iran has also expressed its willingness to negotiate with the international community and to cooperate with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). China hopes that all parties will seize this opportunity to resume talks on the basis of equality and mutual respect, to undertake further dialogue and engagement, and to carry out diplomatic efforts, especially outside the Security Council, to find a peaceful solution.”

  3. “China has always supported the safeguarding of the non-proliferation regime and is opposed to the possession and development by Iran of nuclear weapons. We support the dual-track strategy to address the Iranian nuclear issue and have always strictly implemented our various obligations under the Security Council's resolutions. At the same time, we believe that sanctions are not aimed at solving fundamental questions and should not be used to that end. A peaceful solution through diplomatic negotiations is the best option. As the Security Council adopted the new resolution, the foreign ministers of the five plus one group issued a joint statement reiterating their commitment to addressing the nuclear issue through diplomatic negotiations. Not long ago, Ms.”

China notes that the Committee has done effective work over the past 90 days, for which we express our appreciation. Not long ago, the Security Council adopted resolution 1929 (2010), its sixth on the Iranian nuclear issue since July 2006. Like the previous five resolutions, the new resolution reflects the international concern over the Iranian nuclear issue and the hope of all parties for a peaceful settlement of the matter through diplomatic negotiations. All countries have the obligation to implement the aforementioned resolution comprehensively and seriously.”

  6. “We support the idea that the United Nations should maintain its assistance to AMISOM. We also support the deployment of a United Nations peacekeeping operation in Somalia as soon as conditions permit. The peace process in Somalia requires the unflagging attention and support of the international community. We welcome the upcoming Istanbul Conference on Somalia. We hope that greater common understanding can be reached at the Conference on an appropriate solution to the question of Somalia. To conclude, I would like to thank Special Representative Ould Abdallah for his tireless efforts and hard work in promoting peace in Somalia in recent years.”

  7. “We call on all the concerned parties, including countries of the region, to cooperate in earnest, respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Somalia, offer support to the TFG, and advance the domestic political process of reconciliation so that substantive progress can be achieved as soon as possible. China condemns all attacks on the TFG, the civilians of Somalia and the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM). We highly appreciate AMISOM's work to improve the security situation in Somalia in circumstances of extreme difficulty and danger. We also recognize the contribution of such troop- contributing countries as Uganda and Burundi. We believe that the United Nations, and the Security Council in particular, should play an even greater role in seeking a solution to the question of Somalia.”

  8. “The situation in Somalia has thus become a serious threat to security and peace in the Horn of Africa and to international peace and security. It is the view of the Chinese Government that the ultimate solution to the question of Somalia lies in the cessation of armed conflict among various factions, the settlement of political differences, and the achievement of national reconciliation and reconstruction. China supports the Djibouti Agreement and welcomes the agreement recently signed between the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) and the Ahlu Sunna Wal Jama'a. It is our sincere hope that the political parties in Somalia will act in the interest of the State and the nation by laying down their arms, seeking common ground and participating in the political negotiation process.”

  9. “Mr. Du Xiaocong (China) (spoke in Chinese): Mr. President, I would like to thank you for convening today's open debate on the situation in Somalia. We welcome Mr. Ibrahim, First Deputy Prime Minister of Somalia. I thank Mr. Ould Abdallah, Special Representative of the Secretary-General, for his briefing. I also thank Mr. Lamamra, Commissioner for Peace and Security of the African Union, for his statement. Since the last briefing by Mr. Ould Abdallah to the Security Council, there has been no noticeable improvement in the situation in Somalia. The security situation there does not allow for optimism, the humanitarian crisis is worsening, and the political negotiation process has been difficult and slow. Pirate activities remain rampant.”

We expect that the political factions of Sierra Leone will continue to build consensus and strengthen cooperation in the area of nation-building.

In a few days, the Government of Sierra Leone and the Canadian Chairmanship of the Sierra Leone country-specific configuration of the Peacebuilding Commission will co-host a high-level meeting to discuss peacebuilding in the country.”

We appreciate those efforts and welcome the joint communique agreed by the two parties on 2 April, as it is conducive to rebuilding mutual trust between them and among political factions in Sierra Leone.

We welcome the courageous choice made by the people and Government of Sierra Leone to once again embark upon the path of reconstruction.”

We express our concern in this regard.”
