1. “We would hope that the Libyan Government will make use of the period between now and 1 December, the date on which the resolution we have just adopted will enter into force, to comply with the relevant Security Council resolutions, which might make it unnecessary to implement today's resolution. We should also like to draw attention to paragraph 16 of the resolution, under which the Council expresses its readiness to review the sanction measures with a view to suspending and, possibly, lifting them. We are confident that Libya will make use of all available possibilities to extricate itself from the present situation and thereby enable the Security Council to determine that the circumstances that caused the imposition of such measures against that country have ceased to exist.”

2. “The reason for this is Libya's failure, despite persistent efforts by the Secretary-General, the countries members of the Arab League, and other States concerned, to comply with Security Council resolutions 731 (1992) and 748 (1992), adopted, respectively, in January and March last year. It is clear that the Council had no choice but to adopt new measures to ensure respect for its two earlier resolutions. At the same time, as in other similar cases, we cannot conceal our regret that we have had to have recourse to Chapter VII of the Charter to tighten the sanctions imposed on a Member State of the Organization, particularly since that State is a country with which Hungary has long had mutually advantageous economic cooperation.”

3. “Mr. ERDOS (Hungary) (interpretation from French): Hungary vigorously and unreservedly condemns all forms of international terrorism. We are deeply convinced that the international community must do everything, within the framework of global and regional cooperation, to combat and eradicate that serious phenomenon, which knows no borders. This position of principle determines Hungary's attitude towards the problem with which we are dealing today: the terrorist acts perpetrated against the Pan Am and UTA flights. We regret that, because of delaying tactics and unkept promises and the growing gap between verbal statements and concrete actions, this item is still on the Council's agenda. We regret that for the third time the Council has had to meet to review the situation.”

It welcomes the technical cooperation that Member States are extending to the competent Salvadorian authorities, at their request, in order to assist them in the investigation of these criminal acts.”
