  1. “We have made a solemn commitment to democracy, pluralism, inclusiveness, the rule of law, and freedom of thought, belief and expression. We will embrace tolerance and unity.

We thank the members of the Security Council for their continued focus on and interest in our country, their concern for our citizens and their dedication to peace and security in our region.

  2. “We will also continue to work together with the Republic of the Sudan to ensure that there is justice for the people of Darfur and Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile states. There can be no stability in either the Sudan or South Sudan without a new political dispensation in the two areas and Darfur, as well as the full implementation of the Abyei Protocol. Our fundamental hope and desire is to see peaceful coexistence between the two neighbouring States of the Sudan and South Sudan. We will strive to build a future in which our two countries can work cooperatively, live in peace with one another and be mutually supportive. At home, we must first and foremost fulfil our responsibility to provide security and extend the rule of law, and we welcome the support of the new United Nations Mission in this regard.”

  3. “We look forward to working closely with the Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Ms. Hilde Johnson, on the modalities for the United Nations presence in our country. It is our deepest and most sincere wish to resolve all outstanding matters between North and South swiftly and peacefully. We remain committed to working out our differences through dialogue and in a spirit of cooperation, and we welcome the support of the African Union High-Level Implementation Panel in this regard. In particular, we must agree on mechanisms for continued cooperation, the five remaining disputed areas of the border, demarcation 1141279 and mutually beneficial management of the common border, and the final status of Abyei.”

  4. “We also thank Secretary- General Ban Ki-moon for his constant focus on the full implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement. We express our appreciation to the members of the Security Council for establishing the United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) and to the Government of Ethiopia for committing forces to this mission. We call for their rapid deployment. The Agreement on Temporary Arrangements between the parties on Abyei needs to be implemented. We also call on the Council to ensure that the political and security road map for the two areas, which was signed in Addis Ababa by the Republic of Sudan and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement-North, is fully implemented. We also thank the Council for adopting resolution 1990 (2011) mandating a new peace consolidation mission in South Sudan.”

  5. “My Government remains completely committed to the full and final implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), particularly in respect of Abyei and borders. At this important juncture, I would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks to all of those who contributed to the negotiation and signing of the CPA, including the United States, Kenya, Ethiopia, the United Kingdom, Norway and many others, including, of course, the United Nations itself. The CPA implementation process has involved many challenges and we are grateful to President Thabo Mbeki, Prime Minister Meles Zenawi and Special Representative of the Secretary-General Haile Menkerios, among others, for their dedicated work in support of the process.”

  6. “I also wish to thank the many Council members that have already recognized the Republic of South Sudan and to acknowledge the role of the United States and the United Kingdom in having provided stewardship for the Council's consideration of the situation in the Sudan over a number of years. By virtue of my President's letter to the Secretary-General dated 9 July 2011 (S/2011/418, annex), the Republic of South Sudan has accepted the obligations under the Charter of the United Nations and has undertaken to fulfil them. The Republic of South Sudan will be a responsible member of the international community and will respect its obligations under international law. We are working to accede as quickly as possible to all relevant international conventions and treaties, not the least of which to those related to human rights.”

  7. “Mr. Machar Teny-Dhurgon: I am very grateful for the opportunity to address the Security Council on this important and most auspicious occasion. At the outset, I wish to convey to the members of the Council the profound gratitude of the people and Government of the Republic of South Sudan for having just recommended to the General Assembly that the Republic of South Sudan be admitted as the newest Member of the United Nations (see S/PV.6582). I am particularly grateful to you, Mr. President, and to the German Government, for having championed this process and for presiding over that historic vote. I would also like to recognize Germany's efforts as Chair of the Security Council Working Group on Children and Armed Conflict, and in particular its advocacy with regard to the demobilization of child soldiers, which we also fully support.”
