“What comes to mind here is the constant flouting of arms embargoes by producers and suppliers of arms. We must maintain close cooperation among the United Nations bodies involved in the provision of assistance, and between them and non-governmental organizations, to avoid duplication and prevent overlaps. This will enhance coordination and make humanitarian intervention more effective. In this connection, we commend the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) for the excellent work that the organization continues to carry out in providing assistance to refugees. It is important to seek the views of UNHCR, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and non-governmental organizations on the nature of humanitarian intervention to be undertaken.”

“It is also important that the establishment of safe havens should be undertaken only if there is an international commitment to protect such areas and to assure that they are respected by all parties and will not become an excuse for "ethnic cleansing". Where a massive outflow of refugees has occurred, it is imperative to disarm combatants and, where necessary, separate them from genuine refugees, as was recommended in the case of the former eastern Zaire by our regional leaders in Nairobi. Sanctions, when imposed, should be clearly aimed at ending the conflicts and be well-coordinated, respected and monitored. Sanctions should not cause unnecessary suffering to innocent civilians. Non-compliance with Security Council embargoes and sanctions should not be tolerated.”

“For instance, in cases where there have been rampant mine-laying activities, a mine-clearing component should be included. There has to be a clear link between the emergency and the response. In addition, the Council should identify the parties to the conflict and solicit their support for action decided upon. If deployment of humanitarian military assistance becomes necessary, parties to the conflict should be consulted ahead of deployment and the mandates of such operations should be explained to them to avoid misunderstandings at a later stage. This will improve the chances of success, reduce casualties and minimize instances of hostage-taking.”

“In cases where response has been weak or failed, it can be correctly assumed that the decision-making process was either too slow, the objective too obscure, or mandates of the United Nations operations ill-defined. It might also be that a specific situation has evolved faster than initially anticipated. This is the crux of our debate today. How should we improve the decision-making process to provide a viable framework for humanitarian action and, in this way, to better fulfil the responsibility the Council so clearly has? Our experience in this area indicates that it is absolutely essential, first, that the Council understand the situation on the ground, and based on that, determine the framework for providing assistance and protection, taking into account all the critical aspects of the specific situation.”

“It is therefore true to say that the responsibility of the United Nations, and particularly the Security Council, is crucial in determining the international community's response to humanitarian situations. The Security Council is the organ mandated by the international community to ensure prompt and effective action whenever a threat to peace is determined. This primary responsibility of the Council cannot be abdicated to any other organ or organization. It is the Council that decides, in many cases, how, when, and at what level a humanitarian situation should be addressed. The Council, more than any other body, gives the signal and direction of international response to humanitarian emergencies.”

“This morning, Mr. President, my delegation welcomed the presence of your country's distinguished Foreign Minister, which, in our view, added positively to our debate on this important matter. We welcome this opportunity to discuss in open session one of the most challenging aspects of the refugee crisis facing us today. The number of people in need of urgent humanitarian assistance remains unacceptably high, with the largest percentage of these - whether they be in ongoing conflict, post-conflict or disaster-related situations - being in sub-Saharan Africa. This, therefore, is a matter of utmost importance to us. The United Nations remains the principal actor in humanitarian emergencies.”

“We must, all of us together, help the people of Somalia to help themselves. A regional initiative is in place, and we call on the international community to support it. Kenya will continue to do all in its power to assist the people of Somalia in the search for peace.”

“The lack of security for relief and rehabilitation operations remains an impediment to the delivery of assistance to the populations in need and must be carefully looked into by faction leaders. As a member of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), which has been continuously involved in the search for peace in Somalia, I wish to stress the following points. First, the prospects for peace in Somalia have never been greater and the international community should seize this opportunity to facilitate negotiations and dialogue. Secondly, all efforts aimed at securing peace in Somalia should be complementary and coordinated with the IGAD initiative that is already in place. Thirdly, the planned Bossaso conference should be provided with material and financial support to ensure its success.”

“Any meaningful effort must be all- inclusive to accommodate all parties. We urge the international community to keep the issue of Somalia on its agenda and to continue to respond to the needs of the people of Somalia even in these difficult times. The United Nations agencies have in particular continued to monitor and respond to humanitarian needs. The need for humanitarian assistance will no doubt remain as long as the political problem remains unsolved. While my delegation calls on the international community to continue to render assistance to Somalia, we at the same time call on the Somali leaders to respect international humanitarian law. There have been many cases in which international personnel have been killed, wounded or subjected to kidnapping or extortion.”

“Unfortunately, the 27 parties did not include all the major factions, and as a result the outcome was rejected by the Aidid faction, which refused to join the process. Other efforts by members of the international community, and particularly the Government of Italy, have sought to add to or complement these efforts. More recently, meetings have been held in Cairo. We welcome all these efforts since they encourage dialogue and political negotiations among the people of Somalia. But they are not enough and serve only as a foundation. We can only remind the leaders of the Somali factions that they themselves will have to resolve the problem of Somalia and that no one else can solve their problem. They therefore must go the extra mile and learn to accommodate and be flexible as they proceed in the difficult task of finding common ground.”

“For the first time in many months, the Security Council is having an open debate on the situation in Somalia. Today's meeting is particularly significant because it comes at a time when the people of Somalia are once again attempting to establish dialogue among themselves. Somalia has travelled a long road. My delegation recalls that in October 1996, the main factions, led by Hussein Aidid, Osman Atto, and Ali Mahdi, meeting in Nairobi, restarted the process of dialogue when they agreed to reopen the ports and committed themselves to establishing a broad-based all-inclusive Government. Unfortunately, that agreement was short lived and hostilities resumed soon after. In December 1996, 27 political parties, meeting in Sodere, Ethiopia, resolved to establish a National Salvation Council which would form a transitional authority for Somalia.”

“We also agree that there is need for a follow-on arrangement, which would help consolidate the new peace and national reconciliation among the Angolan people. Accordingly, my delegation will support the draft resolution before us. Finally, we wish the people of Angola all the best, and appeal to their leaders, as brothers from the same continent, to give peace a chance. I echo the words of our founding father 25 years ago when he expressed confidence "that Kenya and Angola will continue to cooperate and strengthen their fruitful relations for the mutual benefit of the peoples of the two countries".”

“The infrastructure of Angola is in tatters. Schools, hospitals, waterworks, roads, railways - the hardware of a civil society - need to be completely rebuilt. It is for these reasons that we have to help Angola now. The peace that has been woven so delicately must be supported, and we encourage those in a position to do so to be generous. It is incumbent upon the international community to respond. My delegation believes that the post-conflict reconstruction of Angola is the last piece of the puzzle. We are convinced that the United Nations should continue to play an active role in Angola. We concur with the Secretary-General's recommendation contained in document S/ 1997/304 of 14 April 1997 that the mandate of UNAVEM. III be extended for a final period until 30 June 1997.”

“The large number of absentees and deserters from the selection and demobilization centres continues to be of concern to us because of the potential for random flare-ups. The removal of all the illegal checkpoints maintained by both parties, taken together with the other measures, will help in the normalization and extension of State administration throughout the country. In this new spirit we believe that a meeting between President Dos Santos and Mr. Jonas Savimbi in Angola will represent an important confidence-building measure towards further strengthening national reconciliation. The progress that has been achieved is political. In our View, the more difficult journey, that of social and economic reconstruction, must now begin in earnest. The war that our sisterly country suffered resulted in great loss.”

“We hope that the prevailing spirit of reconciliation will accelerate the pace towards implementation of the remaining aspects of the peace process. The speedy incorporation of selected UNITA soldiers into the Angolan Armed Forces and the Angolan National Police will soon be considered by the Joint Commission. We wish them success. We are concerned that the proposed rapid demobilization programme of excess UNITA personnel in the central and southern regions has not been quickly implemented, which has resulted in even more hardship for UNITA soldiers and their families. The resumption of the exercise of disarming the civilian population should be carried out in tandem with this.”

“His diligence and persistence in the face of numerous odds and trying conditions, coupled with the unyielding efforts of the troika of Portugal, the Russian Federation and United States of America, the Organization of African Unity and all other actors, finally won the day. Let me temper my cautious optimism by urging all interested parties not to relent in their efforts to ensure the complete resolution of the conflict. The same energy we expended in the search for peace should be exerted to ensure that this process becomes irreversible. We are on the last lap of a long race. Let us redouble our efforts and not lose sight of the finishing tape. Notwithstanding these hard-won, commendable achievements, my delegation is aware that a lot more needs to be done.”

“The important agreements reached between the parties, including the swearing in of UNITA deputies, mark in our View a crucial step towards the full realization of the Lusaka Protocol, and, indeed, a momentous milestone in the Angolan peace process. Kenya fervently hopes that the leaders of Angola will now give something back to their people, by moving decisively away from an era of confrontation and manoeuvring, into one of tolerance, compromise and brotherhood. We strongly encourage them to do so. The achievements reached thus far could not have been possible without the collective, painstaking efforts and encouragement by many. We single out, and highly commend, the superb role played by the Secretary- General's Special Representative in Angola, Maitre Alioune Blondin Beye.”

“The three leaders agreed, among other things, to stop fighting and to create a climate of political tolerance and national unity within the political and ideological diversity of Angola. Following this agreement, they proceeded to the coastal city of Mombasa, where, with the late President, they planted a fig tree to symbolize hope and renewal - a prayer for peace. Sadly, the fruits of that happy ending did not see the light of day. Just as the planting of the fig tree then symbolized hope, the formation of a Government of Unity and National Reconciliation now represents the hope, faith and aspirations of the Angolan people for a durable peace in their country.”

“The leaders of the three Angolan liberation movements, the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola, the National Front for the Liberation of Angola and UNITA, chose Kenya as the venue for their peace talks under the chairmanship of the late founding father of our Republic, President Mzee Jomo Kenyatta, who helped broker the first peace accord after six days of crucial talks on 21 June 1975 in State House Nakuru. Addressing the gathering after the signing ceremony, as the three leaders, Mr. Agostinho Neto, Mr. Holden Roberto and Mr. Jonas Savimbi, hugged each other and shook hands amidst wild cheers from Kenyan ministers and local and overseas journalists, President Kenyatta appealed to the Angolan leaders to unite at home in order to implement measures they had agreed upon to bring about peace, security and freedom in Angola.”

“My country is particularly pleased to participate in this historic debate on Angola, which comes at a turning point in the turbulent history of that country. The journey in the search for a lasting and durable peace in Angola has been a long and arduous one. The people of Angola have endured more than 25 years of devastating civil war. They have lived with the darkness of despair and sorrow. They have seen their loved ones die or be maimed and the promise of hope denied them for too long. It is against this background that we celebrate with the Angolan people as they usher in a new era filled with the possibility of lasting peace, as witnessed by the inauguration of the Government of Unity and National Reconciliation on 11 April 1997. Kenya's involvement in the peace process goes back to the period before Angola's independence.”

“Finally, the Kenyan delegation completely supports Security Council resolution 1076 (1996) of 22 October 1996 in all its provisions, especially those that rightfully place the United Nations in a positive coordinating position, which enables it to play a central role in the mediation effort. We think that while the efforts of interested parties are important, their efforts must be closely coordinated in order to achieve the best results.”

“We cannot encourage or allow the creation of an environment that precipitates any form of forced displacement, giving rise to "ethnic cleansing". We have to speak out loudly against this now, instead of later when more people will have been displaced and more lives lost. The unhappy lessons of Rwanda in 1994 and now Burundi with the policy of regroupement, teach us that quick, resolute action is critical if tragedy along these lines is to be averted. We therefore note with hope the assurance given by Mullah Rabbani to the Special Mission that the displaced male Tajik farmers will be allowed to go back to their farms to tend their crops and that their eventual complete return will be honoured.”

“My delegation believes that the post-conflict reconstruction of Afghanistan is a critical piece in the jigsaw puzzle of the evolving situation. We think, however, that concrete plans or actions should not be laid on the table only after a resolution of the conflict, but should be addressed in tandem with the ongoing search for a political solution to the crisis. This approach may in fact galvanize internal support for the overall peace process and can be used as a tool in the ongoing United Nations mediation efforts. This approach is also relevant in the context of the need to broaden the base of political dialogue to include the millions of Afghans living outside Afghanistan who have a stake and therefore a voice in the future of their country.”

“Denying them employment, however well-justified on the basis of any principle or religion, is condemning them to destitution. We urge those nations with any influence in this matter to address it most expeditiously. On 21 and 22 January 1997, an International Forum on Assistance to Afghanistan was held at Ashgabat under the auspices of the Department of Humanitarian Affairs and in cooperation with the United Nations Development Programme. During this meeting important information and ideas were shared on the future humanitarian and development requirements of Afghanistan. We understand that more work is being done by the Department to develop a strategic framework that will address immediate relief issues, as well as long-term development needs and rehabilitation in the country.”

“I cannot end my intervention without revisiting the unsettling humanitarian aspects of this crisis. On another occasion, regarding this same matter, my delegation had the opportunity to point out that the precarious human rights predicament of women and girls in Afghanistan cried out for urgent attention. These concerns have not been alleviated. In fact, the plight of women and girls does not seem to have improved, although we understand that there are some pockets of hope in Khost and other parts of Taliban-controlled territory. The right to education and employment has been denied to them, especially in a situation where the war has made thousands of women widows and therefore the sole breadwinners in their families.”

“In addition, their efforts need to be coordinated, and this can be done only through the United Nations Special Mission to Afghanistan. In this vein and at this juncture, let me on behalf of the Kenya delegation commend Mr. Holl, the Head of the United Nations Special Mission to Afghanistan, and his team for performing well under difficult circumstances. We are still hopeful that his efforts, spearheaded by the Secretary-General, will eventually bear fruit, and we encourage him to continue vigorously engaging the parties to the conflict. We concur with the Secretary-General's view that a negotiated settlement under the auspices of the United Nations is the only solution to the conflict, and we encourage him to convene an intra-Afghan meeting of the parties when conditions are suitable.”

“Being close to the situation, they have better insights into the problem and a detailed understanding of how to proceed. My delegation is therefore encouraged by their unrelenting efforts to arrive at a meaningful solution to the crisis, especially with specific reference to the Istanbul meeting of 5 January, the Tehran meeting of 25 and 26 January and the Tashkent meeting of 24 and 25 February 1997. While the impact of these meetings is not easy to gauge, the primacy and validity of engagement cannot be emphasized enough. However, we are quite concerned that some of these countries with influence continue supporting one party against the others. This fans the flames of violence, and my delegation strongly supports the Secretary-General's call urging them to refrain from these unhelpful activities.”

“We urge them to stop interfering and to conduct their business in an ethical manner. Nothing can justify such actions, if these are proven to be true. My delegation is also very concerned about allegations that one of the parties runs terrorist-training camps and that parties to the conflict are involved in the growing and distribution of opium and its derivatives. We think these two evils, drug trafficking and terrorism, are global threats that must be addressed under the auspices of the relevant international instruments designed to combat them, and we urge those involved to refrain from engaging in them. As the search for peace continues, the role of countries with influence over the parties to the conflict becomes even more important.”

“To their supporters we say: there are no winners. There have never been winners in such conflicts. We strongly urge all external meddlers to assist in de-escalating the conflict by immediately stopping the reported supply of weapons and military personnel. Indeed, we support the primacy and urgency of this call, as contained also in the Non-Aligned Movement's final declaration on this issue, dated 8 April 1997, in which the Movement's Foreign Ministers "called upon all States to strictly refrain from any outside interference in the internal affairs of Afghanistan, including the involvement of foreign military personnel and the supply of arms to various parties". Further reports of private oil companies colluding with foreign intelligence agencies on the side of one party to the conflict muddies the water even further.”

“Indeed, it will heighten the need for them to sit down and seriously negotiate with the SCDA alliance. We hear encouraging news that General Dostum of the alliance is now ready to meet Mullah Gawooz, the Taliban Minister, and hope that they will do so soon in an appropriate neutral location. We only hope that the impact of a renewed offensive will be softened by the concerted activities of humanitarian agencies. It is obvious to any student of history that, unfortunately, sustained conflict of this nature is in most cases supported and encouraged from outside. Afghanistan is no different. There are credible reports of continued material and financial support to both the Taliban and the SCDA Alliance; this aggravates the already volatile situation and increases the great need for a resolution of the conflict.”

“Indeed, this obvious military advantage has, in the view of my delegation, made it almost impossible for the United Nations Special Mission to Afghanistan to obtain any meaningful concessions from the Taliban or to report substantive progress in negotiations for a ceasefire and the future of Afghanistan. My delegation does not believe that a fresh spring offensive by the Taliban is a gesture of peace or a signal confirming their willingness to discuss the future of the country with anyone else. If anything, it is a clear attempt to solidify their military gains and effectively extend their hegemony throughout the country. This is not the action of an entity willing to negotiate. We think, however, that total military success on their part will not result in a complete political solution of the crisis.”

“In this regard, my delegation supports the Non-Aligned Movement' s declaration on this subject following the New Delhi meeting, and is ready to work with other delegations to come up with suitable action following the meeting. We note with apprehension that, as the Taliban are in almost total military control of Afghanistan, they clearly lack an incentive to concede anything in any negotiations. Given their current military advantage, we are not very optimistic that the Taliban will heed calls for a ceasefire and commence meaningful negotiations with the Supreme Council for the Defence of Afghanistan (SCDA).”

“We are encouraged that international humanitarian organizations, such as the International Committee of the Red Cross, are mobilizing more resources to cope with this crisis, and we commend their cooperation with the Afghan Red Crescent, which now directly helps nearly half a million people throughout Afghanistan. My delegation also strongly supports the appeal for financial and material assistance to ameliorate the effects of the conflict, and encourages donor nations to assist quickly. In addition to the threats to international peace and security, it is this alarm over the precarious humanitarian situation, in particular that of suffering children, which motivated Kenya to support concrete corrective measures initiated by the Security Council. We will continue to support all other efforts geared towards addressing these problems.”

“Fifthly, the right of the Afghan people to determine their own destiny is a prerequisite that is not only enshrined in international law but also a normal moral and political obligation. Sixthly, the United Nations must continue to play the central role in mediating the conflict and coordinating the peace process. We are particularly concerned about reports of renewed fighting in Afghanistan, which has caused further significant displacement of civilians, forcing them to live under the most demeaning and intolerable conditions. This upheaval exacerbates an already fragile political and humanitarian situation.”

“My delegation takes this opportunity to thank the Secretary-General for his report contained in document S/ 1997/240, dated 16 March 1997, on the worrying situation in Afghanistan, which constitutes a threat to international peace and security. I would like to begin my remarks today by stating six principles which will guide Kenya's assessment of the situation in Afghanistan. First, the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Afghanistan are paramount. Secondly, non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries must be maintained. Thirdly, the peaceful settlement of disputes through negotiation is cherished by all of us. Fourthly, equal rights and equal opportunity for all, including women, must be upheld.”

“Over the last three years we have been encouraged by the progress made in the peace process in the Middle East. Kenya has been an advocate of peace in that part of the world and has supported the dialogue that has been evident between the parties. We are concerned about any threats to the ongoing negotiations. We believe that these negotiations have proved to be fruitful so far, and we therefore call upon the parties concerned to refrain from any activities that may have the potential to undermine the peace process. It is in that regard that we urge the parties in the Middle East to exercise restraint at this stage and to continue to negotiate on all the outstanding issues, including the permanent status of Jerusalem.”
