“It is also crucial to enhance the coordination of international cooperation and related processes so as to make them more effective and efficient. Mexico will continue to be committed to this task.”

“The recent presidential and legislative elections in Haiti represent a new opportunity to create a political framework that would include the economic and social instruments necessary to promote development in Haiti. This is an opportunity to move forward in the area of political and democratic stability, which would lead to greater international support in terms of cooperation as well as greater trade and investment flows to support the reconstruction process and the long-term development of that country. The long-term reconstruction and development of Haiti remain a tremendous challenge for the country and for the international community as a whole. The international community must continue in this great undertaking on the basis of the interests and priorities of the Government and the people of Haiti.”

“During its recent membership of the Security Council, Mexico advocated for the Council to act immediately and decisively to address the emergency caused by the earthquake and strengthen the activities of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH). Also in the Council, Mexico emphasized the close link that exists between development and security in putting in place measures to address the conflicts on the Council's agenda, including the case of Haiti. The Government of Mexico is pleased, therefore, to welcome the Colombian proposal aimed at strengthening MINUSTAH's mandate by adding a development component to the security component.”

“In addition, six Mexican private foundations provided an additional $3 million for those purposes. Moreover, in coordination with the Haitian Ministry of Health, the Government of Mexico is building six multi-purpose clinics in various camps for displaced persons. In providing assistance to Haiti, Mexico has observed the increasingly accepted principles of harmonization, complementarity, ownership and, of course, sustainability. Mexico's assistance programmes and projects in Haiti attach special attention to creating capacities and strengthening institutions, which are necessary conditions for achieving lasting and effective 5 solutions, as pointed out by Colombia's presidency in its concept paper (S/2011/218, annex).”

“In reply to one of the questions raised by the presidency, the international response to the earthquake and the epidemic could have been more efficient and effective. As soon as the tragedy occurred, we in Mexico set up an emergency air bridge to deploy rescue personnel and approximately 15,000 tons of humanitarian assistance. In both the emergency response and reconstruction stages, Mexico became involved in the greatest effort at international cooperation in the history of its foreign policy. We carried out innovations in modalities for cooperation and established the public-private Mexican Alliance for Haiti, to which the Mexican Government provided $8 million for projects to strengthen institutions and carry out health and education initiatives.”

“Mr. Granguillhome Morfin (Mexico) (spoke in Spanish): On behalf of the Government of Mexico, I would like to express our gratitude for the invitation to participate in this debate convened by the Government of Colombia. The moment could not be more opportune, given the conclusion of the second phase of the current electoral process in Haiti. Mexico hopes that it will be concluded successfully, with full observance of the law and respect for institutions. We hope this will be a new stage in the democratic life of the country. The earthquake in Haiti and the devastation that ensued was an unprecedented challenge for the international community, given the scope of the destruction and the subsequent epidemic. The earthquake also revealed the weaknesses of international development assistance.”
