“The final responsibility for ending the hostilities remains with the parties themselves. At the same time, the Security Council must assist the parties in reaching this goal, building on the recent adoption of Security Council resolution 1397 (2002). Norway stands ready to make its contribution in this regard. The aim of the Oslo process was to end the occupation and to create security for Israel. We can still achieve this goal, but only if a political process is started now. In this regard, Norway welcomes Crown Prince Abdullah's peace initiative. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. The next speaker on my list is the representative of Algeria. I invite him to take a seat at the Council table and to make his statement.”

“A serious political dialogue must be resumed immediately with the aim of ending the Middle East conflict and establishing a viable Palestinian state alongside Israel within secure and recognized borders, based on Security Council resolutions 242 (1967), 338 (1973) and 1397 (2002), as well as the Oslo Accords. The Tenet plan and the Mitchell recommendations must be implemented immediately and unconditionally. Humanitarian and development assistance to the Palestinians must be increased to counter the increasingly difficult economic and social situation. The international community, and indeed the Council, must stand united in its demand that these measures be implemented. The Israeli and Palestinian leaders seem today locked in a battle with no exit strategies. This is untenable.”

“Norway strongly objects to the ongoing military operation against President Arafat's headquarters in Ramallah and urges Israel to put an immediate end to it. Norway fails to see how these attacks can contribute to greater security. It is Norway's conviction that both parties must now adopt forceful and immediate measures to stop the escalating Violence. These steps include the following. The Palestinian Authority must do its utmost to halt Palestinian terrorist attacks. Continued terrorist attacks cannot be tolerated. Ongoing military operations against President Arafat's headquarters in Ramallah must be halted. Israel must stop its attacks on Palestinian infrastructure, stop incursions into area A and withdraw its armed forces.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as representative of Norway. The peace process in the Middle East is facing its most serious crisis ever. Norway is extremely concerned about the dramatic escalation of violence in recent weeks and days. Present developments are threatening all of the achievements made since the Declaration of Principles was signed in 1993. Norway strongly condemns the Palestinian terrorist attacks. There is no excuse for the killing of innocent civilians. No society can live with suicide attacks and violence at the level we see at present. The Palestinian Authority must fight terrorism vigorously and dismantle the terrorist networks. Nothing less than a 100 per cent effort is acceptable. The Israeli bombardment of Palestinian cities and institutions, which has led to death and destruction, is unacceptable.”
