  1. “The successes attained by Africa in its struggle against colonialism and apartheid resulted from the determination of its peoples and leaders to defend their cause and reach the goals they set for themselves. This spirit has never dimmed, and is renewed today by the enthusiasm of meeting the challenges in the darkest hours, an enthusiasm that has always inspired the sons and daughters of Africa. Certainly, our continent remains the theatre of conflicts that require us all to shoulder our responsibilities. Nonetheless, our determination to restore and maintain peace has remained constant and is particularly manifest in the role of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), an accomplishment of which we Africans are very proud.”

  2. “This last chapter saw the establishment by the Security Council of a new United Nations Mission in the Central African Republic on 15 March 1998. This was a particularly important event, as it had been more than three years since the United Nations had established a peacekeeping operation in Africa. In order to consider the report of the Secretary- General, one must first place the question within the current African context. That context is characterized by the growing awareness on the part of African States that the roots of the problems must be addressed by adopting an approach that dismisses the entirely obsolete vision that the continent is assailed by irremediable misfortunes.”

  3. “Tunisia, which since the advent of its new era on 7 November 1987 has made solidarity and cooperation with Africa pillars of its diplomacy, welcomes the interest shown by the Security Council, which took the initiative of holding a ministerial meeting on 25 September 1997 on the situation in Africa, at which it adopted a presidential statement, contained in document S/PRST/1997/46. That statement requested the Secretary- General to submit a report to the Security Council, which is the subject of our meeting. My delegation would like to thank the Secretary- General for the painstaking preparation of this report, as well as for its exhaustive and detailed content. This marks a new and welcome chapter in the increasing interest in the cause of Africa.”

  4. “Mr. Hachani (Tunisia) (interpretation from French): My delegation would first of all like to congratulate you, Sir, on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for this month and to wish you complete success in your work. I also extend my congratulations to your predecessor, the Ambassador of the Gambia, for the excellent work he accomplished last month. The holding of this Security Council meeting to consider the report of the Secretary-General of 13 April 1998, entitled "The causes of conflict and the promotion of durable peace and sustainable development in Africa", is indeed a major event, in View of the interest that both Africa and the entire international community have in this issue.”

  5. “In this context, Tunisia believes that it has become urgent to find a just and honourable solution, a speedy one, to put an end to the sufferings of the fraternal Libyan people resulting from the embargo, and to put an end to the consequences of the Lockerbie crisis in the neighbouring countries and for security and stability in the whole region, in a manner serving the aspirations of all their peoples for building their common future.”

  6. “In fact, these proposals - which the Libyan side expressed a readiness to accept - were also supported by the Organization of the Islamic Conference and the Non- Aligned Movement, along with several other Member States of the United Nations. Following the Judgments rendered by the International Court of Justice on 27 February last, we have entered a new stage which makes it incumbent upon us all, particularly the Security Council and its members, to reflect on how to deal with the Lockerbie situation in the future in keeping with this new fact.”

  7. “The international community cannot continue its work in this regard without taking into account that the position of the Court accords with the essence of what several groups and States, including Tunisia, have expressed in terms of their sincere wish and in terms of the relentless efforts over the past few years to reach a just settlement which would establish the facts and preserve, within the bounds of international legitimacy, the rights and interests and the dignity of all parties concerned in the case, including the families of the victims, to whom we extend our sincere condolences. In this respect we also wish to mention the efforts undertaken by the League of Arab States and the Organization of African Unity, which submitted joint proposals to find an honourable solution.”

  8. “This formal open meeting of the Security Council is of particular importance because it is the first of its kind since the beginning of the crisis, and it is taking place following important developments which happened at the end of last month in the form of the two Judgments by the International Court of Justice dealing with the interpretation and application of the 1971 Montreal Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation - Judgments that also confirm the jurisdiction of the Court. Undoubtedly, after the pronouncement of the two Judgments by the highest judicial authority on an international level, and until this Court looks into the substance of the case, the case itself has entered a new, unprecedented stage.”

  9. “The Security Council is meeting today in this public session at the request of the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, officially supported by the Committee of Seven of the League of Arab States and the Committee of Five of the Organization of African Unity, both of which committees have been entrusted by these two large and important regional organizations to follow up on what is referred to as the Lockerbie case.”

And I would like to congratulate you on the ideal way in which you are conducting our deliberations. I also deem it my duty to pay tribute to what was undertaken by His Excellency the Ambassador of Gabon, a friend, in chairing the Council last month. I also welcome the presence of His Excellency Mr. Muntasser, Secretary of the General People's Committee for Foreign Liaison and International Co- operation of the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya.”
