1. “We hope that the next report of the Secretary- General will take up those new challenges, in order that the Security Council can have at its disposal information and analysis concerning this phenomenon in order to better protect civilians. Peacekeeping operations with a mandate to protect civilians continue to be an important tool at the Council's disposal. Their effectiveness depends upon sustained support from the international community in ensuring the implementation of mandates by providing the necessary resources to prevent attacks on civilians and to strengthen the capacity of the country concerned to meet its responsibility to protect civilians.”

2. “As the Minister from Rwanda pointed out, the situation of civilians takes on more serious dimensions in the context ofrecent conflicts, which are spreading in an extremely dangerous manner, as well as in situations involving terrorism, separatism and transnational organized crime. Such situations have become genuine threats to the security and lives of civilians, as well as to national and, at times, international patrimony. The capacity to acquire weapons and secure financing, as well as the dangerous alliances among various groups, mean that civilians are often held hostage by Virtue of threats, intimidation and acts of reprisals by such groups.”

3. “Since the adoption of resolution 1265 (1999), the protection of civilians in armed conflict has occupied a central position on the agenda of the Security Council, as evidenced by the numerous resolutions, presidential statements and other measures adopted by the Council intended to overcome the major challenges to protecting civilians. The track record of the past 14 years is encouraging, given the significant normative framework that has been developed. However, that is still insufficient both in terms of implementation and impact on the ground. The report of the Secretary-General published on 22 May 2012 (S/2012/376) describes a difficult situation that often includes a failure by parties to a conflict to abide by their obligations flowing from international humanitarian law and instruments on human and refugee rights.”

4. “Mr. Loulichki (Morocco) (spoke in French): At the outset, I would like to thank the Republic of Korea for organizing this important open debate on the protection of civilians in armed conflict, presided over this morning by Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade Kim Sung-hwan. I also welcome the participation of the Ministers from Azerbaijan, Rwanda and Brazil. Likewise, I would like to express our appreciation to the Secretary-General, the High Commissioner for Human Rights and the director from the International Committee of the Red Cross for their informative statements. Lastly, I wish to thank the delegation of the United Kingdom for leading the consultations on the important draft presidential statement that we will adopt later on.”

5. “By way ofa conclusion, I would like to express our satisfaction with the success ofthis mission, which has enabled the Council to examine up close the progress made in Yemen as well as the obstacles that must be overcome in order to achieve security and stability there.

6. “It also encouraged all Yemenis working to implement the transition process and who have devoted themselves to helping the national dialogue succeed through confidence-building measures and transparency, which will enable the country to move on to the next phase, the referendum on the constitution and the organization of elections, both parliamentary and presidential. At its meeting with the preparatory committee, the mission heard an address by the Chair of the committee, as well as statements by various representatives of Yemeni society within the committee. All recognized the importance of the Security Council's mission to Yemen and expressed the wish that the Council continue to support the transition phase under way in Yemen.”

The third meeting was with the preparatory committee for the national dialogue. The Security Council mission commended the committee's achievements and the reports submitted for the President's consideration.”

8. “With regard to the meeting between the Security Council, the Secretary-General ofthe Gulf Cooperation Council and the Group of Friends of Yemen, the Council's mission commended the GCC on the role it has played in ensuring the success of the transition period in Yemen, as well as of the executive mechanism set up for that purpose. The Security Council also commended the GCC's political and financial support for Yemen and urged it to continue its efforts. The Secretary- General of the GCC also expressed his satisfaction with the Council's visit to Yemen. He considered the messages we are sending to Yemen and to its donors and investors to be very clear.”

9. “The leader of the Government's statement focused on the transition and the obstacles that the transition is encountering, especially at the political level. He also urged the Security Council not to hesitate to act firmly in order to stand up to anyone who might wish to undermine the political process aimed at launching the national dialogue. The leader of the Government reaffirmed that the national dialogue would cover every issue of importance to the country and would help to rebuild national unity on a new foundation. The interactive dialogue between the Security Council and the Yemeni Government considered the following issues: the continuing delay in the national reconciliation process and an accounting of the financial pledges made to Yemen.”

During our meeting with the Head of Government and the Ministers, the Security Council expressed its satisfaction at the efforts undertaken by the National Consensus Government, especially with respect to all its achievements at the level of security and the provision of basic services.

I wish also, like my colleague from the United Kingdom, to congratulate all those who contributed to the success of the Security Council's visit to Yemen, and to express our gratitude to Mr. Jamal Benomar for the efforts he has made on behalf of the Secretary-General.

In conclusion, I cannot fail to mention Morocco's condemnation of Israel's policies towards Lebanon. We reiterate our grave concern about the stability, territorial integrity, unity and sovereignty of Lebanon, in particular given the challenges that the region currently faces.”

14. “Our focus on the Palestinian question, which is at the heart of the Arab-Israeli conflict, arises from our serious concern about the situation. However, that does not mean that we are any less concerned about Syria or Israel's occupation of other Arab territories in the Syrian Golan and southern Lebanon. We note with the utmost concern the worsening humanitarian conditions in Syria. I would like to express our recognition and appreciation of the initiative of Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to hold a donors conference in Kuwait City by the end of the month. We also commend the efforts of Mr. Lakhdar Brahimi on behalf of the United Nations and the League of Arab States.”

15. “This jeopardizes the Palestinian Authority's achievements to date. The Gaza Strip continues to suffer an unjust blockade that flagrantly violates international law and international humanitarian law and denies the rights and dignity ofmore than 1.5 million Palestinians. We call for an end to this condemned blockade, and urge the international community to stop such collective punishment. The deterioratating situation in the occupied Palestinian territories and Israel's suffocating grip on its population increase tensions, reduce the chances for peace, and pose unprecedented threats to all peoples of the region, without exception. The situation compels the Council and the Quartet to act immediately to ensure that negotiations towards the establishment of a just and comprehensive solution in the Middle East can resume.”

16. “The international community must firmly and immediately intervene and reaffirm the need to work for the two-State solution within clear political parameters and a finite timeframe through negotiations between the two parties to reach a settlement, enabling the Palestinian people to establish their own viable, independent State based on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, and living side by side in peace and security with Israel. The economic situation in the occupied Palestinian territories, as Mr. Serry said, continues to deteriorate owing to the Israeli occupation and the Palestinian Authority's growing budget deficit caused by Israel's withholding of tax and customs revenues in response to General Assembly resolution 67/19, which granted Palestine non-member observer status in the United Nations.”

17. “Israel should be made to honour international resolutions that declare its actions as null and void. Palestinians have proven by word and deed their commitment to the peace process and to negotiations to put an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We believe thatPalestinianreconciliationwillbolsterthenegotiating position of the Palestinian side. Arab countries have reaffirmed that a just and comprehensive peace is an irreplaceable strategic choice. However, experience has shown that the flexibility and commitment shown by the Palestinian side are not reciprocated by the Israeli side. Rather, Israel persists in its settlement activities, its blockade against Gaza and its occupation practices, thereby undermining the comprehensive final solution, which enjoys international support.”

18. “It destroys Palestinians' homes, displaces them, and confiscates their land, as we recently saw in Bab Al-Shams and Bab Al-Karamah. East Jerusalem is the primary area targeted by the new settlement plan because of the religious significance it holds for the three religions. The policy is designed to change the demographic and geographic composition of the area and its cultural and religious features in order to isolate it from its natural Palestinian surroundings. His Majesty the King of Morocco, as Chairman of the Al-Quds Committee, has called on the Security Council, and especially its influential members, to live up to their responsibility, to take a principled position opposing the desecration of Muslim and Christian religious sites, and to safeguard the people and those sites.”

19. “The situation has further deteriorated with Israel's intensification of settlement activity, particularly its announced intention to construct thousands of settlement units in the E-l area, north and south of East Jerusalem and in the West Bank, in a way that would lead to the geographical bisection of the entire West Bank, effectively erasing the possibility of achieving peace. Morocco strongly condemns this Israeli settlement plan and calls on the international community, as represented in the Council, to intervene to put an end to such policies, which, if things remain unchanged in 2013, will effectively make any political solution, including the two-State solution, impossible. While Israel persists in its settlement activities in Palestinian territory, it prevents Palestinians from building on their own land.”

20. “Mr. Loulichki (Morocco) (spoke in Arabic): First of all, I wish to welcome Mr. Riad Malki, Foreign Minister of Palestine, to the Council and to thank Robert Serry for his comprehensive briefing on the developments in the situation in the Middle East, including Palestine. No one can disagree that the Palestinian question is in an extremely critical and historical phase right now. We have seen many years of stalemate and setbacks in the peace process in the Middle East as a result of obstacles erected by the Israeli occupation authorities and their complete lack of political will to allow the Palestinian people to establish their own independent sovereign State.”

22. “In that regard, I can only join my French colleague in his appeal for multilingualism. I would like to be a little more optimistic in the hope that there will at last be some follow-up on that clearly obvious and logical request because it is a question of the effectiveness of the troops on the ground and the necessary interaction with populations and troops, in particular for civilian protection. It also depends on the United Nations security measures implemented on the ground to improve the safety and security of all troops, military police and observers and unarmed personnel. I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate our firm condemnation of the attacks on the staff of peacekeeping operations. We pay tribute to all contributing countries for their commitment.”

23. “It is the primary responsibility of the Government concerned to demonstrate the political will to assume its responsibilities and to define its priorities and strategies for peacebuilding in the aftermath of a conflict. The success of such strategies depends on establishing balanced and sustainable partnerships and results- based mutual responsibility, while bearing in mind the three main pillars of peacekeeping: defining needs, sustainable support and coordinating long-term action for actors on the ground. Ensuring the success of any peacekeeping operation, whatever its scope, is the task of men and women who are committed to serving the objectives of the Organization. The effectiveness of their commitment depends on their interaction with local populations.”

    2013-01-21 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.6903 (2013) · source

24. “Needless to say, all such activities and strategies must continue to adhere to the fundamental principles that define United Nations peacekeeping: consent of the parties; impartiality and the non-use of force except in cases of self-defence; respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the countries concerned; and non-interference in their internal affairs. Those principles are and must remain the essential condition of all collective peacekeeping activities and the identification of responsibilities and national peacebuilding priorities. In relation to the principle of national ownership, the participation of all elements of a State is an essential condition for peacebuilding.”

25. “Internal and inter-agency coordination are sine qua non to avoid duplication and ensure the optimal use of available resources, and hence effective United Nations action. The basis for the success of any peacekeeping operation, whatever its scope, lies in such interdependent factors as whether the mandate established by the Council is realistic; triangular cooperation among the Secretariat, troop-contributing countries and the administration in the planning and implementation stages of the mandates; and genuine exit strategies containing measures to ensure sustainable development.”

26. “However, while establishing and building security is an absolute priority for the vast majority of United Nations peacekeeping operations, accomplishing other complementary tasks varies from one situation to another, based on the challenges, capacities and progress made in each country. The nature of a conflict, its origins, the regional environment, and available capacities and resources are among the factors that will determine the interaction of peacebuilding and peacekeeping. It is also clear that such linkage will require coherent strategies and coordination among the various multinational and bilateral stakeholders, including the United Nations system, international financial institutions, regional or subregional organizations, and bilateral partners.”

27. “At the same time, it must be recalled that while support for the political process, national reconciliation, economic revitalization and the establishment of the rule of law are crucial factors, security remains the key element in determining, in large part, the success of the others. Nothing will succeed without security and everything becomes possible when security is ensured throughout the entire country. In that respect, early mobilization of adequate resources for capacity- building and the financing of such related activities as disarmament, demobilization and reintegration remains key to the success of any security sector reform.”

28. “Experience has amply demonstrated the close interlinkage between restoring and building peace, which needs to be organized and structured as soon as a multidimensional peacekeeping operation has been established, and must evolve as the mission proceeds. Multidimensional peacekeeping operations require the complex interoperability of multiple components - in particular military, police and civilian - interacting together or in cooperation with other stakeholders to implement the critical goals of peacebuilding via their integrated mandates, thereby contributing to the foundations of sustainable peace and development in the aftermath of conflict.”

29. “Peacekeeping has grown and evolved in an unprecedented manner, due to increasingly grave internal and regional crises that threaten international peace and security. The growth and diversification of the areas of peacekeeping intervention have brought profound changes in the mandates of peacekeeping operations, which now cover a wide range of activities, from security and support for political processes to disarmament and demobilization 4 all tasks that combine peacekeeping and peacebuilding. Morocco also welcomes the proactive nature of United Nations action and its capacity to mobilize human and financial resources in response to the appeals and aspirations of the concerned States and their populations in terms of peacebuilding and peacekeeping.”

30. “Mr. Loulichki (Morocco) (spoke in French): First, I would like to thank you, Sir, for your initiative in organizing this debate on a multidimensional approach to United Nations peacekeeping. The debate, held in the presence oer. Ban Ki-moon and Mr. Jalil Abbas Jilani, Foreign Secretary ofPakistan, underscores his country's image as an important troop-contributing country that is faithful in its commitment to international peace. My delegation aligns itself with the statement to be made on behalf of the Movement of Non-Aligned Countries by the representative of Egypt. The landmark figure of 60 peacekeeping operations launched by the United Nations since 1948 is more than symbolic; it represents a new phase in the ability of the United Nations to undertake the central activity that is its raison d'etre.”
