  1. “The Government of South Sudan has shown support and appreciation to UNISFA through its assistance in making Gok Machar the UNISFA base on its territory. The Government will do its utmost to continue to support UNISFA's important work. Last but not least, South Sudan further recommits itself to the promotion of peace and stability across our region. We reiterate our appreciation to the Security Council for renewing the UNISFA mandate and wish the Mission fruitful engagement as it works to consolidate peace and stability in Abyei.”

  2. “The Government of South Sudan reiterates nonetheless that establishing temporary institutions in Abyei will not create lasting peace and that their establishment cannot be viewed as an end in itself. The Sudan must also not be allowed to continue moving the goalposts by changing the criteria for how the temporary institutions are to be established. It must also be prohibited from creating further facts and situations on the ground by resettling and arming the Misseriya to the north of Abyei. If the referendum ultimately results in Abyei becoming part of South Sudan, the Misseriya will be welcome to graze and water their cattle in Abyei and beyond, as they have done for many generations, provided that they come in peace and unarmed.”

  3. “To that end, the Government of South Sudan commits to redoubling its efforts to ensure that an Abyei administration and police service are constituted. We further welcome the continued call of the Council that the 20 June 2011 Agreement between the Government of the Sudan and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement on Temporary Arrangements for the Administration and Security of the Abyei Area (S/2011/384, annex) and the decision of the Abyei Joint Oversight Committee of 3 May be implemented to ensure that Abyei is a weapon-free area and the demand that Sudan withdraw its oil police from Diffra. We see those efforts as necessary to the establishment of an environment conducive to the impending Abyei referendum.”

  4. “However, given the historical challenges between the Sudan and South Sudan, we call for an international investigation to ensure the credibility and transparency of that process. That unfortunate incident is viewed neither by the Ngok Dinka nor the Government of South Sudan in isolation, but as the culmination of a trend that must be stopped. It is hoped that this tragedy will provide the necessary impetus for the parties to end the territorial dispute through the agreed mechanisms. I note that my Government has called for peace and calmamongtheNgokDinkainAbyei duringthis difficult time. The skirmishes that took place are a reflection of the frustration that the Ngok Dinka are experiencing over the status of their homeland.”

  5. “To that end, the Government of South Sudan commends the Security Council for reviewing and re-emphasizing that the protection of civilians mandate has broader implications in the case of Abyei, given the historical context of conflict between the Sudan and South Sudan. We join the Security Council in commending the efforts of UNISFA in its ongoing facilitation of the peaceful migration of the Misseriya through Abyei. The unfortunate assassination of the Ngok Dinka Paramount Chief, Mr. Deng Kuol Deng, and the killing ofa UNISFA peacekeeper on 4 May have brought much grief to the Ngok Dinka and the Ethiopian people. We welcome the Republic of the Sudan's commitment to a transparent, comprehensive and just investigation to hold all those involved in that incident to account. There must bejustice and those responsible must be punished.”

  6. “In my Government's view, it stands as the only viable solution for lasting peace, as it takes into consideration the historical context in Abyei, while adequately reflecting the challenges of implementing a referendum, which was, of course, agreed by the parties in the Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2005. We regret that the Sudan continues to reject the proposal of the African Union High-level Implementation Panel, despite its being a proposal that both Heads of State had mandated the Panel to develop. As highlighted in the Secretary-General's latest report on the situation in Abyei (8/2013/294), there have been reports of armed Misseriya attacking the Ngok Dinka of Abyei, killing people, looting cattle and burning villages.”

  7. “South Sudan welcomes the increase in UNISFA's troop ceiling to allow more troops to be deployed to support the Joint Border Verification and Monitoring Mechanism, which is being implemented by the Sudan and South Sudan and which will greatly support stability in the border areas between the two States. I recall that in May 2012 the Council stipulated that the parties must, under threat of sanctions, reach a final agreement on all outstanding issues, including the final status of Abyei, within three months. Regrettably, that deadline was not respected. Nonetheless, the African Union High-level Implementation Panel submitted a proposal on the final status of Abyei, on 21 September 2012, which was characterized by the African Heads of State and Government, in January, as a fair, equitable and workable solution to the dispute.”

  8. “South Sudan also expresses its deep appreciation to the United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) for its unwavering commitment to protecting civilians and to the Government of Ethiopia for its troops' contribution to that important Mission, which supports peace and security in our region. These complementary efforts, including the invaluable contributions of the African Union through its High- level Implementation Panel, provide momentum for a resolution of the final status of Abyei, which is an essential ingredient of lasting peace between the two neighbouring States.”

  9. “I thank you very much, Mr. President, for inviting me to participate in this meeting. Given that this is the first time that my delegation is addressing the Security Council during your presidency, let me begin by congratulating you on your successful leadership and extending my best wishes to you as you conclude your work in the coming days. In the same vein, I reiterate South Sudan's commitment to cooperating with the Security Council. The Republic of South Sudan reiterates its appreciation to the Security Council and the Secretary- General for their continued attention to the issue of Abyei.”
