  1. What is at stake at the regional level as a result of the Central African crisis is significant. It is also urgent for the humanitarian aid that is to be provided to the Central African Republic to also be provided to Central Africans who are in neighbouring countries and who are living in very difficult circumstances. Those are, Sir, the few points that I wanted to submit to the Council for its consideration.

  2. Given the limited means at the disposal of the Central African Republic today, it is important for the Government to receive support in order for it to be able to bring to justice the criminals who continue to practice sexism, rape and kill; for that to come to an end in our country and for the entire population to have its dignity restored. Therefore, on behalf of my country, I call for action - and, I would emphasize, swift, effective action - to be taken. The Executive Director of UN-Women stated that only one third of the funds necessary to meet humanitarian needs are currently being provided. It is important that everyone suffering in camps for internally displaced persons or as refugees in neighbouring countries be taken into account in the various efforts that will be undertaken.

  3. It began as an inter-communal problem, and the sectarian aspect came about as a result of political manipulation and - we must underscore this here today - the negative influence of certain media outlets, at both the national and international levels. I would like to express my satisfaction regarding the mission to the Central African Republic led by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. Today, in Geneva, the independent expert, Ms. Keita Bocoum, presented her report on human rights in the Central African Republic to me. She will of course also present it to the Security Council here in New York. Another mission also took place - that of the Commission of Inquiry, also in Bangui. It will also present its report to the Council shortly.

  4. There is are also the challenge of governance. The rebuilding of public State institutions is crucial, but today, again because of security issues, the prefects who represent the Government in the back country cannot return to their posts. Therefore, the State is for all practical purposes confined to the capital: the State basically does not exist in the back country. I would therefore very humbly ask for the Security Council's support so that all of the compassion that has been expressed for the Central African Republic can truly be translated into deeds. It is time for us to take action to save all of the lives that are being lost with every day, minute and second that pass. I would also like to note that the current crisis in the Central African Republic is not a sectarian crisis, as has been widely broadcast.

  5. There are the security crisis, which must be addressed in order to guarantee the rights of everyone living in our country, including women, who are the main victims of the crisis. With respect to the security challenge, today, as we know, the Central African Republic does not have a national army to guarantee security and the rights of individuals. The Central African Republic is under embargo, which is why we cannot fully shoulder our sovereign duties. There is also the legal challenge. Today, the judicial system in the Central African Republic is sick. The police force needs to be rehabilitated. Judges must also take up their work. But none of that can happen unless there is security. Judges cannot return to their posts in the back country due to security issues. Criminals thus have free rein to commit harmful acts.

  6. Ms. Maliavo-Samba (Central African Republic) (spoke in French): At the outset, on behalf of Mrs. Catherine Samba-Panza, President of the Republic and Head of the Transitional State, and His Excellency Mr. Andre Nzapayeke, Prime Minister and Head of the Transitional Government, I would like to express my country's thanks for the ongoing attention the Council has given to the crisis currently rocking our country. I would also like to thank the Executive Director of UN-Women for everything that her organization has done for our country. She has described the situation of women during the crisis in the Central African Republic. To respond to the crisis, our country must face several challenges.
