  1. “In conclusion, I would like to follow up the question asked by the representative of the United Kingdom concerning cooperation between the WFP and organizations within the United Nations system, stressing cooperation between the WFP and UNAIDS, given the importance of problems that relate to the HIV cr1s1s.”

  2. “The success of the WFP mission depends to a large extent on getting food aid to the most devastated populations - women, children, young girls, the elderly and those who are furthest from food distribution centres. The communications system and the governmental structures in the region, as well as access to the various regions in need are all critically important. Here I wish to stress the responsibility of recipient States to coordinate and use the assistance provided by the international community. In many cases, their political action aimed at promoting decisive reforms in agriculture or education is crucial to avoid renewed cyclical crises, such as those caused by drought or flooding.”

  3. “We recall the appeals launched by the WFP this year to draw the attention of the international community to the urgent food situation that has already developed in the six high-risk countries in Africa because of the drought, flooding or economic and political instability. That tendency has to be reversed through decision-making, and we must guarantee that the attention of donors is not diverted from potential crises. My second point relates to the need for better synergy and strategies between emergency assistance and the follow-up programmes leading to sustainable development. The practice of past decades has shown that, because of the limitations of international funding, such funding in recent years has decreased considerably once the crisis had been terminated.”

  4. “The crisis we are facing is unprecedented in its magnitude and depth, and we, the members of the Security Council and members of the international community, must make special efforts to provide immediate and massive support. The major challenge now is to put an end to this serious situation and to prevent it from deteriorating or becoming catastrophic. In addition to the urgent response of the United Nations and humanitarian organizations, the Security Council must act for the long term, learning lessons from past experiences. In that regard, I wish to follow up some of the points made by Mr. James Morris. The international community must use its modern information technologies and early warning systems in order to prevent further famine of such magnitude from happening in the future.”

  5. “Mr. Tafrov (Bulgaria) (spoke in French): First, I would like to congratulate you, Mr. President, on your assumption of the presidency of the Council and thank you for having convened this meeting. Allow me also to associate myself with all those who have welcomed Mr. James Morris, Executive Director of the World Food Programme (WFP). We congratulate him on his comprehensive briefing to define a food security strategy to meet the needs of the most vulnerable people in Africa, which attests to the force of his conviction. Bulgaria fully supports the global campaign "Alert for famine in Africa", which the WFP initiated to provide food to 30 million victims in Southern Africa and West Africa and in the Horn of Africa.”
