  1. Pakistan reaffirms its abiding commitment to the objective of the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, particularly within the context of nuclear disarmament. In this regard, I would also wish to reiterate that, despite our reservations which stem from the flawed nature of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, Pakistan has been willing to adhere to the Treaty, provided that our concerns about the threat of nuclear weapons in the South Asian region could be met in a non-discriminatory, equitable and credible manner. We acknowledge the importance not only of the nuclear non-proliferation Treaty but also of regional non-proliferation arrangements. We therefore fully endorsed the Joint Declaration by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the Republic of Korea on the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.

  2. We also believe that States Members of the Urited Nations should extend their cooperation to the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the exercise of its inherent right of individual and collective self~defence in accordance with Article 51 of Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, including the supply of arms to enable them to defend themselves.

  3. The time has come for the Council to act rapidly and firmly to compel the Serbian side to accept the Vance-Owen peace plan. We believe that the Security Council must take immediate appropriate measures, including the authorization of the use of force under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, to ensure: the placing of all heavy weapons in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina under effective international physical control or neutralizing them to render them inoperative; the interdiction of all arms supplies to the Bosnian Serbs; the institution of appropriate measures for reparations for the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Serbia and Montenegro; that Serbia and Montenegro is liable, under international law, for any direct loss or damage, including environmental damage, or injury to foreign Governments, nationals and corporations as a result of its aggression against the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina; and the effective imposition of a complete and comprehensive economic and financial blockade against Serbia and Montenegro.

  4. We are deeply concerned at the escalation in armed hostilities by the Bosnian Serbs against several towns in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We are particularly alarmed at the mounting Serbian armed attacks on civilian populations in many threatened areas, in particular the towns of Sarajevo, Tuzla, Zepa and Goradze and their surrounding areas. We believe that the adoption cf the present resolution declaring these threatened areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina as safe areas will go a long way to ensuring the safety of civilian populations in these regions. The international community is witnessing escalating defiance of its will by the Bosnian Serbs. In total disregard of the mandatory resolutions of the Security Council, the Bosnian Serbs have persisted in their repulsive policy of "ethnic cleansing" and genocide.
