  1. “The Forum will be a platform for dialogue and interaction among leaders, decision-makers and experts in order to lay out an integrated African vision linking aspects of development and peace, and to practically implement existing African initiatives and policies as well as achieving sustainable development. That would contribute to the stability of societies while minimizing the risks of polarization of destructive and extremist ideologies.”

  2. “In conclusion, I cannot but to emphasize the close link between peace and security, on one hand, and achieving sustainable development, on the other, as well as ensuring the transition from achieving peace and security to peacebuilding and sustainable peace. All international and regional efforts to achieve peace, security and stability must go hand in hand with efforts to achieve socioeconomic development. We are therefore currently preparing for the Aswan Forum for Peace and Sustainable Development to be launched at the summit level on 11 and 12 December.”

  3. “Thirdly, all international and regional efforts aimed at achieving stability and security on the continent must be based on the principle of the sovereignty of States and the central role of Governments in designing peace agreements and development plans in accordance with national priorities and national ownership. Sustainable and long-term peace can be achieved only by strengthening the capacity of Governments to extend their authority throughout their territories and promote their institutional capacities in all fields, thereby achieving security and stability while ensuring their gains in that regard.”

  4. “That would revive the relevant African policy, including through launching the activities of the African Union Centre for Post Conflict Reconstruction and Development in Africa, which is based in Cairo. Secondly, Egypt stresses the importance of all international and regional concerted efforts to support stability and security on the African continent. In that regard, we underscore the importance of achieving continued consistency and coordination between the Security Council and the African Union Peace and Security Council. The aim is to unify visions and positions related to all the issues included on the agenda of both Councils. In that connection, I would like to commend the important role played by the group of the three African States members of the Security Council.”

  5. “Furthermore, the role of preventive diplomacy and mediation in settling disputes among States is important. In that context, we stress the need to respect the established principle of African solutions for African problems. That principle was the basis for the successful Silencing the Guns in Africa by 2020 initiative, which complements other ongoing African efforts to establish security and peace in Africa, constituting also an important added value to the pillars of the African Peace and Security Architecture with the aim of promoting mediation and preventive diplomacy to prevent, resolve and manage conflicts and crises and achieving post-conflict reconstruction and development.”

  6. “The African continent is facing a number of interlinked challenges affecting peace and security, foremost of which are the threats of terrorism and extremism spreading across different regions in Africa, as well as organized crime, human trafficking, arms trafficking and the impacts of climate change, such as desertification, water shortages and scarcity of natural resources, at a time of peoples' growing aspirations to peace, stability, development and well-being. On this occasion, I would like to focus in my statement on three main messages. First, Egypt believes that the best means to ensure stability and peace in the world, especially on the African continent, is by addressing the root causes of problems that constitute a threat to peace and security, while working on conflict and crises prevention in the first place.”

  7. “Mr. Fawzy (Egypt) (spoke in Arabic): I would like, at the outset, to thank the Russian presidency of the Security Council for the month of September for having convened this important meeting on the topic "Peace and security in Africa: partnership to strengthen regional peace and security". I would also express our appreciation for having invited Egypt to participate in this meeting as Chairperson of the African Union, thereby reflecting the important African vision on issues of peace and security on the continent and the principle of African solutions for African problems.”
