  1. We hope that the parties concerned in Syria will comply with this resolution, engage in dialogue and negotiations to establish mutual trust, meet one another halfway and draw on other useful experiences so as to reach a settlement on the basis of the claims of all parties that is in line with the national conditions of Syria and that accommodates the interests of all parties. As a permanent member of the Security Council and a responsible member of the international community, China will continue to make a positive contribution to the promotion of the early realization of the comprehensive, lasting and appropriate resolution of the question of Syria.

  2. Thanks to the common efforts of all parties, including China, the second Geneva conference was held last month. That was an important step in the political settlement of the question of Syria. Resolution 2139 (2014) gives fresh impetus to the political process in Syria. The question of Syria is complex and sensitive and not easy to resolve. We hope that the international community will insist on the political settlement of the question of Syria, insist on letting the Syrian people decide the future of their country themselves, continue to promote an inclusive political transitional process and continue efforts to foster the realization ofnational reconciliation and unity in Syria and to ensure the delivery of humanitarian assistance in Syria and in neighbouring countries.

  3. Going forward, the international community should ensure the implementation of resolution 2139 (2014). We urge all parties in Syria to set their sights on the interests of their nation and their people, comprehensively implement the resolution, fully cooperate with the United Nations and other organizations and make common efforts for the improvement of the humanitarian situation in their country. The international community should continue to provide humanitarian assistance to Syria and actively support the efforts made by neighbouring countries in hosting Syrian refugees. Humanitarian measures can offer only temporary relief of the suffering of the Syrian people. It is only by seeking a political settlement to the question of Syria that it will be possible to achieve a fundamental improvement in the humanitarian situation in Syria.

  4. In the current circumstances, the actions taken by the Security Council on the humanitarian situation in Syria should be objective, balanced and conducive to the maintenance of international humanitarian norms and of the momentum for the political settlement of the Syrian crisis. Resolution 2139 (2014) reiterates respect for the independence, sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity of Syria, states the responsibility of all parties concerned in Syria for the improvement of the humanitarian situation, stresses the imperative for all parties to abide by the guiding principles of United Nations humanitarian relief work, expresses support for the political settlement of the Syrian question and sends a unanimous and powerful message for the early improvement of the humanitarian situation in Syria. As such, it is of great significance.

  5. China has on many occasions provided humanitarian assistance to Syria and the neighbouring countries through multiple channels and will continue to provide help to the best of its ability to the Syrian people, including Syrian refugees outside Syria, so as to ease their suffering. As the core of the collective security mechanism, the Security Council bears primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. The adoption by the Council of resolution 2139 (2014) is yet another unanimous action taken by the Council on the question of Syria since the adoption of resolution 2118 (2013) last year. This is the result of the common efforts of the members of the Council.

  6. Mr. Liu Jieyi (China) (spoke in Chinese): Over the past three years, the Syrian conflict has continued to escalate, causing heavy casualties and serious loss of property, as well as the displacement of millions of civilians. China is seriously concerned at the ever-worsening humanitarian situation in Syria and sympathizes with the Syrian people who have sustained profound suffering. The current humanitarian situation in Syria must not continue. China supports the efforts made by the international community, especially the United Nations, to ease the humanitarian situation in Syria and appreciates the contribution made by neighbouring countries in hosting a large number of Syrian refugees.

  7. He himself closed the door to a dialogue with China. What he must do now is not to provide justifications for himself but to effectively mend his ways, relinguish his erroneous outlook on history, which runs counter to the human conscience and international justice, and correctly understand and deeply repent the Japanese history of militarist aggression. He must comply with the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and truly win the trust of the neighbouring Asian countries and the international community. The people of the world will watch Japan's actions.

  8. The war criminals venerated at the Yasukuni shrine are criminals responsible for those war crimes. Are we to understand that to pay tribute and homage to those war criminals is to comply with the purposes and principles of the Charter? Are we to understand that altering textbooks and covering up the truth of history is the correct way to make future generations realize the mistakes that have been made and avoid the path of war? By saying those things, the Japanese representative was only deceiving himself and others. If the Japanese leaders really wish to distance themselves from wars of agression, the history of wars of agression the war criminals of the Second World War, they should know better than to engage in such justifications. Abe's acts gravely undermine the political foundation of Sino-Japanese relations.

  9. What the Japanese Government should do is to effectively comply with the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Proclamation and other relevant rulings and cease all actions that violate and undermine the territorial sovereignty of neighbouring countries. The Japanese justifications raise several questions. The United Nations has 193 States Members. Apart from Japan, have any other country's leaders gone to pay homage to Class A and class B war criminals of the Second World War? Why has Japan chosen the opposite side on this issue than that of the international community? Are we to understand that to pay tribute to war criminals and glorify wars of aggression is to declare a wish for peace? The Charter puts it very clearly: the founding of the United Nations was to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war.

  10. That once again proves that Japan is still hanging on to its erroneous View of its history of aggression. Japanese Prime Minister Abe's visit to the Yasukuni shrine is an affront to historical justice, human conscience, the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations, the world's victory over fascism and the post-war international order. During the Second World War, the Japanese army forcibly recruited large numbers of comfort women from China, Korea and many other countries and committed egregious crimes against humanity. Thus far, the Japanese Government has not offered an apology or compensation for the issue of comfort women, and, by rights, it should continue to bejointly condemned by the international community. Japan's purpose in revising the textbooks is to falsify history and distort the facts.

  11. A moment ago, he did the same thing again. In fact, Japan is only digging itself into a deeper hole by trying to whitewash its history. The international community knows what kind of a place the Yasukuni shrine is, and Japan knows it all too well. It was a spiritual symbol of Japanese militarism. To this day, it openly glorifies and justifies Japanese militarist wars of aggression. Japan still openly claims that the Pacific war that it launched was for self-defence purposes. It is still accusing the International Military Tribunal for the Far East of conducting illegal trials. And it still venerates 14 Class A war criminals and more than 1,000 other war criminals as deities. In his statement this afternoon, the Japanese representative referred to them as people who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

  12. Mr. Liu Jieyi (China) (spoke in Chinese): The Charter of the United Nations entrusts the Security Council with the primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. This Chamber is a symbol of the victory ofthe peoples ofthe world against fascist wars of aggression and a symbol of justice conquering evil. The post-war international order based on the Charter must be adhered to and maintained. The theme of today's Security Council meeting is "War, its lessons and the search for a permanent peace". In order to draw lessons from war and maintain lasting peace, it is necessary to face history squarely and use it as a mirror. Facts speak louder than words. In his statement this afternoon, the Japanese representative offered justifications on the issues of the Yasukuni shrine, comfort women and textbooks.

  13. China is willing to work with all peace-loving countries in the world in order to uphold humanity's conscience, the principles and purposes of the Charter of the United Nations and international justice and to drive the world towards common security and lasting peace.

  14. Whether the Japanese leaders choose to abide by the principles and purposes of the Charter of the United Nations by accepting the victory in the war against Facism and the post-war international order or to support the war criminals is a fundamental question of principle. The Japanese leaders should recognize and reflect on the history of aggression and redress their mistakes through actions so as to regain the trust of the international community, including Japan's neighbouring States. No one can defy the current trend of history. Any act that refuses to reflect on the history of aggression, negates the victory of the people of the world against Fascism and challenges the principles and purposes of the Charter of the United Nations will be in vain and will be rejected by history.

  15. Abe's tribute to those Fascist war criminals are nothing less than a challenge to the victory against Fascism and to the post-war international order established on the basis of the Charter of the United Nations. Such acts would naturally be strongly opposed and condemned by the Chinese people and Government, as well as the international community. The Charter of the United Nations clearly stipulates that members of the United Nations should be peace-loving countries that accept the provisions of the Charter. Mr. Abe is trying to reverse the verdict on the Second World War and to defend war criminals. That will never be accepted by people who have a conscience or by countries that uphold justice.

  16. Abe, recently visited the Yasukuni Shrine, which honours many Class A and other war criminals, in order to pay tribute to those who launched the war of aggression and were soaked in the blood of the people of the countries that Japan invaded. The Yasukuni Shrine is a particular tool and symbol of Japanese military aggression. The fact that to this very day the war criminals convicted by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East are still regarded as deities, the distortion of the history of aggression, the promotion of an erroneous perspective of history in an attempt to reverse the verdict on the war of aggression and responsibility for it and Mr.

  17. We are here today to draw lessons from history so that we will cherish peace even more. Only by facing up to history squarely and through deep reflection on and the memory of those lessons can we truly heal the wounds of war and achieve lasting peace. Attempts to disregard the truth of history or even to change history, to deny or conceal crimes of aggression and to reverse the verdict on the war of aggression not only destabilize regional peace but also pose serious challenges to the cause of peace of humanity. The international community should be highly vigilant in that regard. In defiance of the strong opposition of the international community and neighbouring States, the Japanese Prime Minister, Mr.

  18. Against the backdrop of globalization, countries cannot be separated from each other, and together they form a community of common destiny. In seeking their own development, countries should try to accommodate the legitimate concerns of others and seek more common denominators in their interests, with a View to bringing about optimal development that benefits all countries. We should seek, through our common development, to eradicate the breeding grounds for conflicts and attack the threats to global security at their source, so as to lay a solid foundation for durable peace and security and a harmonious world in which all enjoy prosperity. It is nearly 70 years since the end of the Second World War. The reflection on that unprecedented tragedy is far from over. Past experience can serve as teacher.

  19. Its role should be enhanced rather than weakened. All States should effectively abide by the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations, which have become the accepted basic norms in international relations. The Security Council should, in accordance with the sacred mandate entrusted to it by the Charter, further enhance its authority and effectiveness, assume greater responsibilities in maintaining international peace and security and play a greater role in the prevention of war and the maintenance of peace. Fourthly, lasting peace calls for a new concept of development that promotes mutual benefits and win-win results. The efforts by all countries to achieve mutually beneficial cooperation and common development constitute important bases for maintaining international peace and security.

  20. In this age of globalization, where the interests of States are intertwined and our fates are interdependent, peace has become our shared aspiration, and war will never enjoy any support. History has proved repeatedly that the resolution of disputes through dialogue, consultations and negotiation is the only effective way to achieve lasting peace. The international community should step up efforts to promote the peaceful resolution of differences and disputes among the parties to conflicts, prevent conflicts, stop conflicts from escalating and nip war in the bud. Thirdly, lasting peace calls for multilateralism and the strengthening of the collective security machinery, with the Security Council at its core. The United Nations plays an irreplaceable role in international cooperation aimed at safeguarding the world's security.

  21. First, lasing peace calls for a new security concept characterized by confidence, mutual benefit, equality and cooperation. Faced with complicated and diverse security threats and challenges, we must change the traditional security concepts, respect and take into account the legitimate security concerns of all countries and advocate a new security concept for all based on cooperation. All countries, large or small, strong or weak, rich or poor, should become defenders and promoters of peace. We must seek to resolve differences through dialogue, enhance confidence through cooperation and achieve general security through mutual benefits and win-win results. Secondly, lasting peace calls for the resolution of disputes by peaceful means.

  22. Mr. Liu Jieyi (China) (spoke in Chinese): The Chinese delegation welcomes the initiative by Jordan to hold this open debate, and I thank Under-Secretary- General Feltman for his briefing. In humankind's long history over the past several thousand years, wars and conflicts have brought about devastation and claimed countless lives. They have caused the extinction of many civilizations and prevented humankind's progress and development. The prevention of war and the pursuit of lasting peace and development have been the common aspiration of all. The two world wars that took place over the short span of 30 years in the twentieth century wreaked unprecedented havoc on the peoples of the world. They also left us many fundamental and important lessons.

  23. The international community should firmly uphold the Charter of the United Nations and the basic norms guiding international relations; commit itself to maintaining the sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity of Syria; respect the will and choice of the Syrian people; adopt a just, balanced and impartial attitude; play a constructive role in promoting peace talks; create favourable conditions for the political transition; and support the efforts of the Secretary-General and Mr. Brahimi, Joint Special Representative of the United Nations and the League of Arab States for Syria, so as to maintain and fully leverage the United Nations leading role in good offices and mediation.

  24. Fourthly, national reconciliation and unity must be achieved in Syria. Fifthly, humanitarian assistance must be delivered in Syria and its neighbouring countries. The second Geneva Conference on Syria will mark the beginning of dialogue and negotiations, which should be an ongoing process. We hope that all the parties in Syria will work with the future of the nation and the overall interests of the entire Syrian people in mind, demonstrate political will, seize the opportunity, come to the negotiating table and seek common ground so as to find a solution that meets national needs and takes into consideration the interests of all ofthe parties.

  25. Developments over the past three years have fully demonstrated that military means will not settle the question of Syria. Political settlement through dialogue and negotiation is the only correct choice and is also the object of international consensus. It is also, more importantly, the direction that all the parties must follow in the future. We welcome and support the second Geneva Conference on Syria, to be held on 22 January in Switzerland. Yesterday, Chinese Minister for Foreign Affairs Wang Yi put forward a five-point proposal for a political solution to the question of Syria. First, the Syrian issue must be resolved through political means. Secondly, the future of Syria must be decided by its own people. Thirdly, an inclusive political transition process must be promoted.

  26. In May 2013, for the first time ever, China received simultaneous visits from Palestinian and Israeli leaders. President Xi Jinping put forward a four-point proposal for a solution to the Palestinian question, fully demonstrating the Chinese Government's sincerity and positive attitude in promoting peace in the Middle East. In December 2013, Chinese Minister for Foreign Affairs Wang Yi visited Palestine and Israel and further encouraged both parties to achieve peace through talks. China will continue to follow the four-point proposal put forward by President Xi Jinping, work hard to promote peace talks between Palestinians and Israelis, and play a greater role so as to make it due contribution to achieving a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East. China has closely followed the situation in Syria.

  27. The General Assembly has designated 2014 the International Year of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. With the ongoing turbulence in the Middle East, the international community should proceed on the basis of the overall goal of maintaining peace and stability in the Middle East, strengthen the sense of urgency in seeking a solution to the Palestinian- Israeli question, and enhance efforts to encourage the relevant parties to achieve peace through talks. China hopes that the Quartet will take concrete measures in that regard. We support the Security Council in playing a greater role in finding a solution to the Palestinian- Israeli question. China has always attached great importance to the question of the Middle East and is committed to promoting the peace process.

  28. Palestine and Israel should recognize each other's right to exist and accommodate the other's reasonable concerns. This is indispensable for the progress of any negotiations. We sincerely hope that Palestine and Israel will seize this opportunity, seek common ground and demonstrate good will so as to promptly find a definitive solution and promote early substantive progress in the peace talks. China is opposed to Israeli settlement activities in East Jerusalem, the West Bank and other occupied Palestinian territories. In the current circumstances, an end to settlement activities and violence against innocent civilians, as well as the full lifting of the blockade against the Gaza Strip, are of critical importance to maintaining an environment conducive to the peace talks.

  29. Establishing an independent State of Palestine and the peaceful coexistence of Palestine and Israel are the only way forward and also an important guarantee for achieving long-term peace and stability in the Middle East. China has always maintained that the parties concerned should adhere to the relevant United Nations resolutions, the principle of land for peace, the Arab Peace Initiative and the road map for peace in the Middle East, and, on this basis and through political negotiations, establish an independent State of Palestine, with full sovereignty based on the 1967 borders and with East Jerusalem as its capital. China supports the ongoing Palestinian-Israeli peace talks, which are at a critical juncture. If they do not forge ahead, they will suffer a setback.

  30. Mr. Liu Jieyi (China) (spoke in Chinese): China welcomes the presence of Mr. Nasser Judeh, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Jordan, to preside over today's open debate. I thank Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for his briefing. China also listened carefully to the statements made by the representatives of Israel and Palestine. The question of Palestine has always been a core issue ofthe situation in the Middle East. It has remained unresolved for a long time, which has not only brought severe suffering to the Palestinian people but also made it impossible to achieve peace between Palestine and Israel, much less peace and stability in the Middle East.

  31. That is in the interests of changing their vulnerable status, while maintaining their rights and interests in practical terms. Women's development is the foundation for truly realizing their empowerment. The international community should promote socioeconomic development and thereby effectively enhance the status of women and promote their positive contributions to the maintenance of international peace and security.

    2013-10-18 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7044 (2013) · source

  32. To prevent women from once again falling prey to various atrocities, it is essential to ensure their equal participation in the process of reforming the security and justice sectors, while maintaining parallel progress on the tracks of the rule of law, political and economic development and national reconciliation, thus providing a comprehensive guarantee for the respect and protection of women's rights and interests. Fourthly, the effective participation of women is an important foundation for realizing sustainable peace and social stability. Women should become important participants in conflict prevention and mediation, and they should enjoy adequate rights when it comes to decision-making and participation in post-conflict peacebuilding and national development.

    2013-10-18 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7044 (2013) · source

  33. The General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council, the Human Rights Council, UN Women and other United Nations agencies should discharge their respective responsibilities while working closely with one another with a View to generating synergies. Thirdly, strengthening the rule of law represents both an important link in post-conflict peacebuilding efforts and an important foundation for safeguarding and upholding women's rights and interests.

    2013-10-18 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7044 (2013) · source

  34. External support should fully respect national sovereignty and, in keeping with specific national conditions and needs, focus on capacity-building and stepping up assistance, with a View to helping the countries concerned overcome financial and technical difficulties. Secondly, the Security Council should play its unique role fully, while strengthening its coordination and cooperation with related organizations and agencies. As the primary institution for maintaining international peace and security, the Council should focus on conflict prevention, dispute mediation and post-conflict reconstruction so as to foster an enabling political, security and rule-of-law environment for safeguarding women's security, rights and interests.

  35. In order to promote women truly shouldering their peacekeeping roles and playing at important part in peacebuilding processes, the various United Nations bodies and entities should work in accordance with their respective mandates, with a clear division oflabour and as one. I wish to highlight the following four points. First, it is national Governments that have the primary responsibility to protect women's safety and their rights and interests. The international community should support the countries concerned in their efforts to that end by providing constructive assistance.

China welcomes the presence at today's debate of Ms. Mlambo-Ngcuka, Executive Director of UN Women; Ms. Pillay, High Commissioner for Human Rights; and the NGO representative, Ms. Balipou. We listened attentively to all of their briefings. Respecting and protecting women's rights and interests is not only the epitome of the civilization and progress of human society, but is also closely related to world peace and development. The international community should not only be concerned with protecting women's safety and upholding their rights and interests in conflict and post-conflict situations; it should also devote attention to ensuring that women can play their unique roles in peace processes.

  37. We hope that UNMIK, the European Union Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo and the Kosovo Force can strengthen coordination and cooperation in order to play a positive role in promoting the settlement of the question of Kosovo.

    2013-08-29 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7026 (2013) · source

  38. At present, the political and security situation in Kosovo is showing a positive trend. However, the situation in northern Kosovo is tense. All parties concerned should effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of all ethnic communities in Kosovo and actively promote national reconciliation. They should take a cautious approach to resolving differences in the context of the dialogue in order to avoid any action that could complicate or exacerbate the situation. China commends the work carried out by the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) under the leadership of Special Representative of the Secretary-General Zarif and supports the continued efforts of the Mission to implement the Council's mandate.

  39. China believes that, in accordance with the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and under the framework of resolution 1244 (1999) and international law, all parties should seek a mutually acceptable settlement plan through dialogue and negotiation. It remains the best and only option for resolving the Kosovo question. China appreciates Serbia's active efforts to seek a political settlement of the question of Kosovo. My country welcomes the substantive results achieved in the high-level political dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina. We encourage both parties to continue the process of pragmatic, constructive dialogue aimed at achieving a lasting settlement of the question of Kosovo and maintaining peace and stability in the region of the Balkans and in all of Europe.

I thank Mr. Zarif, Special Representative of the Secretary-General, for his briefing. I have listened carefully to the statements made by His Excellency Mr. Mrkic', Minister for Foreign Affairs of Serbia, and Mr. Hoxhaj. China respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Serbia and understands its legitimate concerns with regard to the question of Kosovo. Security Council resolution 1244 (1999) forms the important legal basis for the settlement of the question of Kosovo.

  41. We welcome the Secretary-General's recommendation on a continued reconfiguration of MINUSTAH and the extension of its mandate for an additional year. China hopes that MINUSTAH will continue to implement Security Council mandates, help maintain security and stability in Haiti, promote the political process and strengthen the rule of law and the capacity-building of Government institutions. In that reconfiguration process, MINUSTAH would be well advised to extensively heed the views of all sides and proceed in a steady manner.

  42. Secondly, MINUSTAH should to continue to advance the economic development and reconstruction of Haiti. We call on the international community to effectively honour its pledges of aid to Haiti and be constructively engaged in the country's national reconstruction. The cholera situation in Haiti remains grim. China supports the Secretary-General's initiative, announced in February, to eradicate cholera in the country. We call on Member States to continue to provide resources and technical support in that regard. Thirdly, MINUSTAH should continue to play the important role of the United Nations in Haiti. China appreciates the efforts and contributions by Special Representative of the Secretary-General Honore and MINUSTAH for the maintenance of peace and stability in Haiti.

  43. China welcomes those developments. At the same time Haiti still faces challenges in its political process, economic development and the humanitarian situation. Peaceful reconstruction remains an arduous task that requires the continuing support and assistance of the international community. I would like to focus on the following three points. First, I should like to refer to the continuation of the consolidation of a democratic stabilization process in Haiti. We hope that all the relevant Haitian parties will put the interests of the nation and the people first, enhance their dialogue and political consultations, achieve proper solutions of disputes, promptly reach consensus on senatorial and local Government elections and further promote the Haitian democratic process and political reconciliation.

I thank you, Sir, and other colleagues for the words of welcome extended to me. I look forward to close cooperation with all colleagues in the future in our joint efforts to advance the work of the Security Council. China also thanks Special Representative of the Secretary-General Honore for her briefing on the situation in Haiti. The Haitian situation has continued to register good progress. The Government has been making vigorous efforts in implementing policies on employment, education, the environment, energy and the rule of law, as well as in enhancing its capacity-building. Remarkable progress has been achieved in reconstruction after the 2010 earthquake.
