  1. This past June, at the twenty-third ordinary session of the African Union summit in Malabo, His Excellency President Kikwete expressed the readiness of the United Republic of Tanzania to render support to the regional interventions spearheaded by the African Union as well as international interventions, including those undertaken by the United Nations system. Our commitment and resolve remain: we will continue to work with partners to strengthen the level of preparedness to address the Ebola epidemic.

  2. The isolation and stigmatization of Victims, including through transport restrictions, is truly unfortunate. All of us should do whatever it takes to refrain from engaging in such acts, which would be tantamount to adding insult to injury. The Ebola outbreak has highlighted the fragility that persists on the African continent and which is also present in other parts of the world. While directing our efforts towards eradicating the Ebola outbreak in the short and medium term, in the long term we should seek to build the capacities of the health and humanitarian sectors to cope with major outbreaks such as that of the Ebola virus.

  3. The adoption of resolution 2177 (2014) is a positive contribution to the ongoing efforts. The Ebola outbreak has demonstrated the vicious, destructive force of the disease. The projections for its spread and consequences are alarming and should provoke an immediate, collective response on our part. The pronouncements made in this Chamber today and elsewhere are truly encouraging. All that remains is to put those commitments into action and wipe the Ebola virus from the face of the Earth once and for all. The triumphs of mankind, especially those demonstrated by the permanent members of the Council, give us much hope that the deadly Ebola virus can be contained and eliminated. The victims of the Ebola outbreak deserve our sincere sympathy and support.

  4. Tanzania thanks you, Mr. President, for having convened this important event to discuss the Ebola outbreak in Africa. We also welcome the resolution adopted today - resolution 2177 (2014) - which sends a strong political message from the Council in the collective effort to bring the outbreak under control. Tanzania was a sponsor of the resolution as a show of support and solidarity, as well as sympathy with those who have succumbed to its deadly effects. We pledge to stand with them in addressing this massive health crisis. We would like to pay tribute to Member States, regional organizations, the United Nations system, the private sector, civil society and individuals for their various interventions in addressing the Ebola crisis. We believe that where there is a will, there is a way.
