1. “Those principles - among them the strict observance of the principle of non-use of force, respect for human rights, protection of all minorities, and effective guarantees for equal participation in the political process by alli population groups - remain valid. The tragic evolution of the situation in the former Yugoslavia also shows the need for the United Nations to find ways and means for dealing with similar problems, at an earlier stage and more effectively. The Federal Chancellor of Austria, Mr. Vranitzky, has already mentioned this point, when he spoke in this Chamber on 31 January 1992. This is not intended to be a criticism of the efforts of the United Nations to date. It was Austria itself that first called for the deployment of United Nations peace-keeping forces along traditional lines.”

2. “Indeed, as the resolution just adopted states, the sole objective, even at this late hour, is to achieve a peaceful solution and encourage political efforts to that end, This course of events - the immense suffering of the peoples of the former Yugoslavia and now in particular of the population in Bosnia and Herzegovina - could have been largely avoided if our earlier calls for a peaceful solution had been heeded. As early as 25 September 1991, on the first occasion this Council dealt with the Yugoslav crisis, the Austrian Foreign Minister, Mr. Mock, stated that, first of all, it was necessary to stop the escalating spiral of violence, which had already reached Bosnia and Herzegovina. He then went on to outline the principles upon which relations among the peoples of the former Yugoslavia should be based in the future.”

3. “I thank the representative of the United Kingdom for the kind words he addressed to me. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Austria. Today's decision by the Security Council to impose comprehensive mandatory sanctions against Serbia and Montenegro is harsh but necessary. It has become necessary because of the stubborn and irresponsible attitude of the Belgrade authorities, both military and civilian. Their policies and practices have caused suffering and destruction on a scale that in this day and age almost defies our imagination. They will eventually be judged not only by history but also by their own people. To sit in judgement is not our task today.”

46. “As this is the first meeting of the Security Council for the month of May, I should like to take this opportunity to pay tribute, on behalf of the Council, to His Excellency Mr. Simbarashe Simbanenduku Mumbengegwi, Permanent Representative of Zimbabwe to the United Nations, and to His Excellency Mr. Chigwedere, for their service as President of the Security Council for the month of April 1992.

48. “They are not punishment; they are introduced in order to make a certain member of the international community comply with its obligations under the Charter of the United Nations. My country has always emphasized the importance of an adequate and balanced relationship between the objectives, on the one hand, and the ways and means to obtain these objectives, on the other. Furthermore, it is evident that sanctions will have to be lifted once full implementation by the country concerned of its obligations has been achieved. That is why Austria has always stressed the necessity of establishing objective criteria for the provisions on the termination of sanctions. In this context, I should like to draw attention in particular to paragraphs 12 and 13 of resolution 748 (1992).”

49. “On 21 January 1992, on the occasion of the adoption of resolution 731 (1992), I called that resolution an important step in the internationally concerted action against the scourge of international terrorism, since it urged Libya to contribute to this task. I should like on behalf of Austria to commend all those who undertook efforts to bring about compliance by Libya with its obligations, and in particular the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the League of Arab States and various countries of the region concerned. Regrettably, Libya has still not implemented its obligations under that resolution. Hence, we voted in favour of resolution 748 (1992). This resolution imposes certain sanctions on Libya designed to bring about Libyan compliance with its obligations under resolution 731 (1992). Sanctions are never a goal in themselves.”

50. “Austria's position on terrorism is clear, unwavering and unequivocal. We condemn vigorously all forms and all acts of terrorism and - since terrorism is a truly international problem which has to be combated internationally - we call on all members of the international community to join in the efforts to eliminate terrorism and to Strengthen further their cooperation to that end on the global as well as the regional level. Terrorism is a most dangerous threat to international peace and security. That is why it is appropriate for the Security Council to deal firmly with the matter. Austria, as a party to all relevant instruments against terrorism, believes that action taken by the Council in this field should be guided by the principles enshrined in these conventions.”
