  1. “Their attitude so far has been very professional, and we commend them for it. The international community's financial support to alleviate the immediate socioeconomic difficulties on the population is very important and much-needed at this moment. In conclusion, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to our immediate neighbours, specially Senegal, which is a member of the Council, for their engagement through ECOWAS, as well as all partners and friends of Guinea-Bissau, for the continued support and assistance for peace and stability in our country.”

  2. “We know that the full realization of the results and the pledges made at the Brussels round table conference on Guinea-Bissau, on which Bissau Guineans count so much, counting, are still pending - perhaps waiting for an enabling political environment in the country - but the suffering population cannot wait. The renewal of the mandate of the Economic Community ofWest African States (ECOWAS) Mission in Guinea-Bissau for one more year, with the support of our partners to ECOWAS, is very much appreciated. However, we are very concerned about the news that after this year the Mission will be leaving Bissau. We hope that by then the country will find a way to walk by itself in terms of securing peace and that the military, which at the moment is out of the political scene in the country, will remain the same.”

  3. “The latest visit by the Council to Guinea-Bissau, the visit of Under-Secretary-General Jeffrey Feltman and the recent diplomatic efforts led by the United Nations Integrated Peacebuilding Office in Guinea-Bissau and other international organizations in the country have served to reassure Bissau-Guineans that they are not forgotten and that the international community remains engaged in helping us to bring peace and stability to our country. Our people are aware that the major work towards peace and stability remains the primary responsibility of Bissau-Guineans. However, as the political crises persists and the socioeconomic situation in the country can no longer be sustained, the Council's presence, input and concrete actions vis-a-vis the people are urgently needed.”

  4. “After the very comprehensive report and everything that has been said about the situation in Guinea-Bissau, I do not have much to add, but to request all the members of the Security Council to continue their support to our country and its people. The latest developments in the country in the past few days show that, finally, the main actors from the two major parties are engaged in an open dialogue towards reaching the needed consensus to restore the normal functioning of the national Parliament, which is an essential step to passing the national budget and to move the country ahead.”

And I would like to thank the representative of Timor- Leste, who will speak in his capacity as Chair of the Community of Portuguese-speaking Countries (CPLP), for his statement and for all the support by the CPLP to Guinea-Bissau.”
