“We urge the key players in the region to refrain from any activities that could fuel the conflict, and to cooperate with the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen, Mr. Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed, in working to bring the warring parties back to the negotiating table. The Middle East must remain an epicentre of instability no longer. We must spare no effort this year to open a new chapter of sustainable peace and collective prosperity in the region's history. The Republic of Korea will continue to support the efforts of the international community and the Security Council to create peace and stability in the region and to play a constructive role to that end.”

“At the same time, all the parties must prepare for a nationwide ceasefire so that it can go into effect as soon as the political process begins. We must never again allow religious and national antagonisms and tensions in the region to paralyse international efforts to end the Syrian conflict. The already indescribable suffering of the Syrian people worsens every minute. Unhindered and unconditional humanitarian access must be ensured and international humanitarian law observed by all parties. The Republic of Korea will continue to join in the international efforts to end the suffering. In that regard, we will announce our 2016 humanitarian assistance plan for Syria and its neighbours at the conference to be held in London on 4 February. In Yemen, it is urgent that we convene another round of peace talks as soon as possible.”

“We urge all the parties to put an end to violence and return to the negotiating table in order to work out a viable framework for achieving a two-State solution. Confidence-building measures, including ending the expansion of settlements in the occupied territories, are urgently needed if we are to create an environment more conducive to dialogue for sustainable peace between the parties. Turning to Syria, we welcome the announcement of the start of an intra-Syrian dialogue on 29 January, and appreciate the efforts of the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Syria, Mr. Staffan de Mistura, to get this moving with unwavering commitment to resolution 2254 (2015). As the resolution makes clear, the dialogue must be an inclusive and Syrian- led political process.”

“We also hope that the beginning of the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action in Iran on 16 January will serve as a catalyst for a more peaceful and prosperous Middle East, based on denuclearization. This year, the vicious cycle of attacks and retaliation between the Palestinians and Israelis has again continued to be a serious concern for the international community. Furthermore, there have been no signs of any serious effort to work for peace among the opposing parties. We once again urge the leaders of both Israel and Palestine to keep in mind that hostilities and violence not only mar the present, they also undermine the future, by driving young people deeper into desperation and hopelessness.”

“I thank you, Madam, for convening this year's first quarterly open debate on the situation in the Middle East. The situation in the Middle East has tremendous impact beyond the region. Millions of refugees from Syria, Yemen and Iraq are moving towards Europe and other areas. Violent extremism is expanding globally. The international community must make a more concerted effort than ever to prevent conflicts in the region. In that vein, we strongly support the plan of action to prevent violent extremism, initiated by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, as a useful global framework to prevent that dangerous parasite from taking root and destroying the region and beyond.”
