“It is with great pleasure that I extend to you, Sir, my delegation's warm congratulations on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for the current month. We are confident that with your diplomatic skills and wide experience, of which we already have considerable evidence, you will continue to steer the work of the Security Council with distinction. I also wish to take this opportunity to express my delegation's appreciation to your distinguished predecessor, the former Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation, Ambassador Yuliy Vorontsov, for his leadership during his presidency of the Council last month. My delegation supports the draft resolutions contained in documents S/1994/1083 and S/1994/1084. As for the draft resolution contained in document S/1994/1085, my delegation has the most serious reservations.”

“25 The adoption of the present resolution not only sets the clock ticking on the illegal de facto regime in Haiti, but is also a warning to other States that are using their state 26 apparatus to carry out systematic campaigns of gross violations of fundamental human rights and civil liberties, particularly where such violations give rise to tensions in the region and threaten regional peace and security. I now resume my function as President of the Council. There are no further names on the list of speakers. The Security Council has thus concluded the present stage of its consideration of the item on its agenda. The Security Council will remain seized of the matter. The meeting rose at 2.25 p.m.”

“My delegation therefore voted in favour of the resolution just adopted by the Security Council. We regret that, for well-understood reasons, the Secretary-General could not recommend the option one contained in his report in document S/1994/828 of 15 July 1994. Had it been possible to implement that option, it would have been a preferred course of action, in my delegation's view. We express the hope that the multinational force will be deployed for the shortest period necessary and will exercise the utmost caution and restraint in the fulfilment of its mandate, to avoid any loss of life.”

“We recognize that the present deteriorating situation in Haiti is both unique and exceptional and constitutes a threat to peace and security in the region, requiring an exceptional response by the international community. In this context, we would also like to recall the 7 June 1994 communique of the OAS Ministers, who urged all Member States to support measures by the United Nations to strengthen the United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMIH) - inter alia, to assist in the restoration of democracy. Furthermore, the legitimate President of Haiti, Mr. Jean-Bertrand Aristide, has, in his letter dated 29 July 1994 addressed to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, called for "prompt and decisive" action by the international community in the implementation of the Governors Island Agreement.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Pakistan. My delegation thanks the Secretary-General for his two excellent reports on the situation in Haiti contained in documents S/1994/828 and S/1994/871. My delegation is deeply concerned at the significant further deterioration of the situation in Haiti and the continuing disregard of the Governors Island Agreement by the illegal de facto regime of that country. We deplore the regime's refusal to cooperate with the efforts by the United Nations and the Organization of American States (OAS) to bring about the implementation of the Governors Island Agreement. In this context, we strongly condemn the recent expulsion of the staff of the International Civilian Mission (MICIVIH).”

“It is our common responsibility not to allow any erosion of the system of collective security as envisaged in the United Nations Charter. My delegation does not favour the practice of post- facto endorsement by the Security Council of a regional peace-keeping operation which is outside the purview of the United Nations. In this context, we have some reservations on the existing formulation of operative paragraphs 3 and 4 of the resolution just adopted.

“However, we would have preferred that such a peace-keeping operation be organized by the United Nations and that it be under United Nations command. Pakistan is concerned over an emerging tendency to attribute peace-keeping roles to the countries of the region, or those closest to the conflict, especially when such countries have direct political interests in the area of the conflict. The States Members of the United Nations should in no way abrogate their Charter responsibilities in such a manner. My delegation is aware of the present financial difficulties faced by the United Nations, particularly in relation to its peace-keeping operations. These constraints, however, should not be allowed to impinge upon the obligations of the United Nations to uphold peace and security around the world.”

My delegation voted in favour of the resolution just adopted by the Security Council on the situation in Abkhazia, Georgia, primarily because it extends and expands the mandate of the United Nations Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG), which we fully support. We believe that an expanded UNOMIG will be an important instrument for ensuring peace and stability in the area and should contribute to the early and voluntary return of refugees and displaced persons.

“The Council is especially concerned at the delays which continue to occur in the demobilization of forces and in the formation of the new Mozambican Defence Force (FADM). In this context the Council reiterates its call in resolution 916 (1994) of 5 May 1994 to the parties to comply fully with all the provisions of the Agreement. "It is essential that the demobilization of all forces is completed by 15 August 1994, as agreed by the parties, and that the difficulties of forming, before the elections, the FADM at the strength agreed in the General Peace Agreement are addressed quickly and with flexibility.”
