1. “In conclusion, Peru believes that the mandates and functions of the Security Council and the International Criminal Court seek to fulfil similar objectives, expressly aimed at achieving the purposes and principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations. The primary responsibility of this organ for maintaining international peace and security and the jurisdiction of the Court over the most serious crimes must be understood and executed as complementary and interdependent tasks. That is what the Sudan and the victims of the atrocities in Darfur expect of us today.”

2. “However, we regret that States parties to the Rome Statute have not complied with the arrest warrants of the Court against suspects who have entered their countries. We remind them, as recently established by the Court's Appeals Chamber in the Jordan case, that they, like Sudan itself, must comply with the Court's orders and ensure their timely and effective cooperation. We also recall our support for initiatives to provide the Council with specific procedures in cases of non-compliance and lack of cooperation, with a view to holding the States concerned accountable for their inaction.”

3. “In that regard, we reiterate our support for the work of the Prosecutor and her team and encourage her to continue her efforts in fulfilling her mandate and the principles of the Rome Statute. We also urge the authorities of the Transitional Military Council to fulfil their obligation to arrest and surrender suspects of crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide. We must ensure punishment for the crimes of which former President Omar Al-Bashir and other suspects against whom there are arrest warrants - Abdel Hussein, Ahmad Harun and Ali Kushayb - are accused. We also reaffirm the need for States, including the Council members, to cooperate with the International Criminal Court and its Prosecutor in order to achieve justice for the crimes committed in Darfur.”

4. “Mr. Horna (Peru) (spoke in Spanish): We thank you, Mr. President, for convening this meeting. We also thank Ms. Fatou Bensouda, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, for her briefing. Peru regrets the recent events in the Sudan and their repercussions on the grave humanitarian and human rights situation. We condemn in the strongest terms the increasing repression and violence, which have resulted in nearly 100 deaths since 9 April. All that must cease and those responsible must be brought to justice in accordance with the principle of complementarity. The International Criminal Court today provides an opportunity by complementing the primary responsibility of the State to prevent the most serious crimes from going unpunished.”
