“Turning to the arms embargo, one of the challenges facing the effective implementation of the arms embargo on the Central African Republic is the fact that it shares its north-eastern and eastern borders with Sudan and South Sudan, which are dealing with rebellions of their own as well as the Lord's Resistance Army, which flout not only the sanctions regime but also the treaty governing the uncontrolled circulation of and trade in arms, despite the political goodwill of those brotherly States. To be effective, the embargo must be complemented by border control. However, the Central African Republic faces the issue of vetting, which is a process of reform of the defence and security forces that is very lengthy and costly for this fragile country.”

“Since that person's identity was no secret during border crossings, we have to question the role of INTERPOL in the implementation of sanctions regimes, as well as the monitoring by the panel of experts of the implementation of the sanctions imposed by the Security Council. This raises once again the issue of the binding nature of the resolutions of the Security Council with respect to Members of the Organization that deliberately violate the provisions and principles of the Charter.”

“Regarding the fight against the proliferation of weapons, all it takes for a sanctions regime to be rendered ineffective is for a neighbouring State to support a rebellion or a listed entity or individual. That is why, among other measures aimed at ensuring effectiveness, strong political and diplomatic pressure must be brought to bear when needed on the States neighbouring the State under sanctions. With respect to the travel-ban issue, it so happens that recently in the Central African Republic a person under sanctions was moving about freely, going in and out of the territory at will.”

“Mr. Koyma (Central African Republic) (spoke in French): I would like to thank you, Mr. President, for having convened this debate, which gives States under sanctions regimes an opportunity to express their views with regard to problems linked to respecting Security Council sanctions, the implementation of which are ensured by the committees of the Council, established by various resolutions. My thanks also go to the representatives of Sweden and Chile for their important contributions to this debate. As 22 delegations have already discussed issues relating to transparency, regime length and procedures, my delegation will limit itself to listing the problems facing the Central African Republic.”
