1. “As I said earlier, cooperation between my country and the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1572 (2004) has been marked by a spirit of frank cooperation over the past five years. The Group of Experts and the relevant Ivorian authorities, including the Permanent Mission in New York, have held working meetings on several occasions. The Ivorian Government has always been committed to providing the best possible working conditions for carrying out the mission of the Group of Experts during its periodic visits to the country. A striking illustration of that outsanding cooperation was the field visit made by the Ambassador of Chile, then Chair of the 1572 Sanctions Committee, to C6te d'Ivoire in 2014.”

2. “Since 2011, with the swearing in of His Excellency Mr. Alassane Ouattara, President of the Republic, significant changes have taken place in the political and security arenas that have led to great progress towards a return to the peace and stability in the country. Those positive developments led the Security Council to gradually ease the embargo regime on arms. Similarly, in April 2014, with the ongoing improvement of the management of natural resources, the Security Council, in resolution 2153 (2014), lifted the embargo on diamonds originating from Cote d'Ivoire. Following the smooth conduct of the presidential election and the outcomes achieved in the areas of security and stability, cote d'Ivoire now awaits the total lifting of the arms embargo, following the Secretary General's report expected at the end of March.”

3. “As the representative of a country subject to Security Council sanctions regime, I take a keen interest in taking part in this debate on the working methods of the Council's subsidiary bodies, so as to share experiences and use this opportunity to make several recommendations. Following the events of September 2002 in Cote d'Ivoire and the subsequent developments, the Security Council placed my country under a sanctions regime by virtue of resolution 1572 (2004). Three types of sanctions were implemented: an arms embargo against C6te d'Ivoire, individual sanctions involving the restriction of movement and the freezing of assets, and an embargo on diamonds originating from C6te d'Ivoire. The political context that prevailed in Cote d'Ivoire during the first six years of the sanctions regime impeded the achievement of real progress.”

4. “Mr. Gone (Cote d'Ivoire) (spoke in French): At the outset, Mr. President, I would like to congratulate you on your assumption of the presidency for this month and to assure you of my delegation's support. I also have great pleasure in expressing our appreciation to the President of the Security Council for the month of January, the Permanent Representative of Uruguay, His Excellency Mr. Elbio Oscar Rosselli, and his team for their excellent work, when the positive changes in the situation in Cote d'Ivoire, inscribed on the Security Council agenda, were the subject of a resolution authorizing a reduction in the military component of the United Nations Operation in cote d'Ivoire. My congratulations also go out to the representatives of Sweden and Chile for their outstanding briefings.”
