1. “Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French): The French policy on Bosnia and Herzegovina has a clear goal: peace through a negotiated political settlement. The recent decisions of the States members of the Atlantic Alliance should be interpreted in the context of reinvigorating the search for a political solution. Their only purpose is to make available to the United Nations the means to implement Security Council decisions, and thus to improve the chances for peace. In that perspective, our top priority is to lift the siege of Sarajevo. We want to prevent the recurrence of massacres of civilians like those of 4 and 5 February.”

2. “But we must remember that, as has been emphasized in each of the Council's resolutions, it is the Somalis themselves who are responsible for their destiny, and that without their cooperation all the goodwill of the international community will be to no avail.”

3. “For the time being, the United Nations will continue to help deliver humanitarian aid as well as to assist in the reconstruction of the country's political, judicial and economic infrastructure. It will continue its efforts to convince the Somali parties to respect the commitments they have undertaken. It will strive to promote the process of national reconciliation, the only process that will make it possible one day for Somalia to have a legitimate government and to regain its identity. My delegation welcomes the fact that the Council has decided to mobilize the human and financial resources needed to help the Somali people move towards this goal.”

4. “It should be stressed that the presence of the United Nations in Somalia has saved many lives. It put an end to the tragedy of the starvation of an entire people. It made possible the renewal of political and economic structures. The success of local and regional councils does indeed reflect the genuine interest of the Somalis in the political life of their region and their country. Are the divisions and the differences among them so irreconcilable as to prevent a people from living in peace and devoting itself to the reconstruction of its country? It is clear, however, that the international community, which mobilized rapidly and massively under the aegis of the United Nations to come to the aid of the Somali people, cannot do so effectively against the will of certain of its leaders.”

5. “Mr. MERIMBEE (France) (interpretation from French): I am pleased to extend the compliments of the French delegation to you, Sir, on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council. I should also like to express my most sincere thanks to Ambassador Kovanda for the excellent way he conducted the proceedings of the Council last month. My delegation welcomes the adoption of this resolution on Somalia, which gives the United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM II) a revised mandate that, while it is certainly less ambitious, is none the less more in keeping with the realities of the day. This new mandate will make it possible for the United Nations to preserve its sizeable gains and to continue the work done by UNOSOM II under the direction of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General.”

6. “My delegation would express the hope that the parties in South Africa and, in particular, those which have not agreed to participate in the multiparty negotiations, will refrain from any acts of violence or intimidation, both against the voters and against international observers, and thereby contribute to the holding of these free and fair elections. France, for its part, will spare no effort to enable South Africans to express themselves freely on the occasion of these first elections which constitute for South Africa the beginning of a great new human adventure.”

7. “Nelson Mandela, without whom these developments, which were inconceivable only a few years ago, could never have taken place. That notwithstanding, much hard work remains to be done before the elections. Millions of voters will have to register on the electoral rolls to participate in the vote. They will have to be given minimal training if elections are to be held as democratically as possible. Finally, as the Secretary-General has stressed, acts of violence could disrupt the smooth functioning of the voting operations.”

8. “Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French): My delegation is happy that our Council has met today on a question that has been the subject of a widespread consensus within the international community. On 27 April, South Africans will be participating in the first truly democratic elections in the history of that country. This. extraordinary event has been made possible by the determination of men and women who, by common consent, have agreed to put an end to the unacceptable apartheid regime which our Organization has consistently condemned. These elections, for this reason, deserve the full support of our Council and of the international community. Here, France wishes to pay a sincere tribute to President De Klerk and to the President of the African National Congress (ANC), Mr.”

9. “France therefore firmly appeals to the parties to do all in their power for a political agreement in this field to be concluded in the coming days. The continuation of the United Nations action in Rwanda depends directly on the efforts they are prepared to make to restore peace definitively to Rwanda in the wake of a conflict that has, alas, claimed all too many victims.”

10. “These positive developments were made possible by the prompt deployment of an initial contingent in Kigali. Its presence allowed the Rwandese Patriotic Front to establish itself in the capital. We are now near an agreement that would make it possible for transitional institutions to be established. None the less, the Secretary-General has stressed that grave acts of violence have occurred in certain regions of Rwanda. The main objective of the deployment of a second battalion is to help bring security to the populations of those regions. Furthermore, my delegation regrets that the time-table established by the parties at Kinihira concerning the establishment of a broad-based transitional Government has not been respected.”

My delegation welcomes the Council's adoption of this resolution, which authorizes the Secretary-General to deploy a second battalion in the demilitarized zone. The report which the Secretary-General has submitted to the .- Council shows that recent events in Rwanda regarding the implementation of the peace process are encouraging. The cease- fire has indeed been respected; the parties have cooperated with each other and with the United Nations for the implementation of the Arusha Peace Agreement.”

15. “We await the results of the next round of negotiations, to be held on 11 January, and the continuation of the discussions undertaken in Moscow on 15 and 16 December on the modalities of a political solution. In this connection, my delegation wishes to emphasize that, even though the first meeting of experts in Moscow did not produce immediate results, the fact that the parties began to discuss the core of the problem is in itself a positive factor. If further progress is achieved in the coming weeks, France, together with a number of delegations directly concerned, and in close coordination with the Secretariat and the parties, will not fail to propose new forms of action to our Council.”

16. “Mr. MERIMBEE (France) (interpretation from French): My delegation welcomes the decision just taken by our Council. Just as, immediately following the violation of the Sochi Agreement, the Council reduced the strength of the United Nations Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG), today, in the light of the encouraging results of the Geneva negotiations, the Council is confirming the readiness of the United Nations to make its contribution as soon as the parties prove their willingness to make progress towards a political settlement of the conflict. In addition to the 10 observers who will be deployed immediately, we would like the Secretariat to deploy as quickly as possible the maximum number of observers within the limit of 50 authorized by this resolution.”

17. “It also justifies UNOMUR's continuing to exercise its own legal autonomy, in line with the wishes of the Ugandan authorities, who signed an agreement with the United Nations to grant such status to the Mission. The resolution we have just adopted takes account of both those factors. That is why my delegation voted in favour.”

18. “Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French) : Resolution 846 (1993), by which the Security Council established the United Nations Observer Mission Uganda~Rwanda (UNOMUR), gave the Mission a six-month mandate. The report that the Secretary~General has just submitted to the Council indicates that the Mission has achieved tangible results on the ground: it has succeeded in monitoring the Rwanda- Uganda border. In carrying out its mandate it has enjoyed the full cooperation of the Ugandan authorities, which the Council welcomes. Hence, UNOMUR has been a factor for stability in the region, and has played a useful part in restoring the confidence that is necessary for the implementation of the Arusha Peace Agreement. The Mission's success warrants the renewal of its mandate for a further six months.”

19. “As to the future, though it is too early to say what the role of the United Nations should be in El Salvador after the elections and the installation of the new Government, we feel that the end of the ONUSAL operation should not mean the end of the United Nations presence in the country. We believe that it would be especially useful to continue to provide assistance in the area of human rights so as to ensure the necessary transition, along the lines of what was done in Cambodia. The Centre for Human Rights should be entrusted with that mission. The establishment of an integrated United Nations Office is also a solution that we think bears consideration.”

20. “France calls on both parties to implement without delay the commitments they entered into and to agree on a timetable for implementing those provisions that have not yet been totally implemented, whether they relate to the establishment of the National Civil Police, the transfer of lands, the reintegration of ex-combatants or the recommendations of the Commission on the Truth. My country welcomes the Secretary-General's efforts to establish an impartial commission to investigate illegal armed groups. Only the complete elimination of such groups and the full reinsertion of the Frente Farabundo Marti para la Liberacien Nacional (FMLN) into El Salvador's political life will make it possible to create conditions of true democracy in the country.”

21. “Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French): France voted in favour of this resolution extending the mandate of the United Nations Observer Mission in El Salvador (ONUSAL) until 31 May 1994. It welcomes the progress made so far in implementing the Chapultepec Accords. However, my country regrets that, at the very time when the electoral campaign is beginning, violence is resurging in the country and obstacles are being placed in the way of the implementation of the main provisions of the agreement.”

22. “In due course -- depending on how the situation in the country evolves - it will study the options he proposes. Finally, I wish to draw attention to one point: France welcomes the contribution of the United States to UNOSOM - a contribution that has been decisive. However, for reasons of clarity and consistency, and also because this problem may arise in the case of other peace-keeping operations, we should have preferred to see the status of the United States forces vis-a-vis UNOSOM clarified in this resolution. A certain number of formulas were tried, but, in the end, none of them was deemed satisfactory. My delegation regrets that that important element - important by reason of the numerical strength of the force concerned as well as its impact on an operation placed under the authority of the Council - was omitted from the resolution.”

23. “My delegation hopes that the fourth Coordination Meeting on Humanitarian Assistance for Somalia - to be held in Addis Ababa, beginning on 29 November - which, I hope, will bring together all components of Somali society, will provide an opportunity for political dialogue. France pays a tribute to the efforts, in this regard, of the countries and organizations of the region to help find a settlement to the Somali crisis, and we encourage them to continue their efforts. My Government commends the work done, under the authority of the Secretary-General's Special Representative, by the UNOSOM team and pays a tribute to those who sacrificed their lives to help the Somali people rebuild their nation. France has agreed to the renewal of the UNOSOM mandate, in keeping with the recommendations of the Secretary-General.”

24. “My Government hopes that by the beginning of next year the Transitional National Council of Somalia will have been established and will embody the sovereignty of Somalia, for - and this is something that my delegation wishes to stress once more - the United Nations cannot take the place of the Somali people. The role of the United Nations is to provide assistance, but it is the Somalis themselves who will determine the process of national reconciliation and the restoration of political structures in Somalia. France hopes that the Somali parties will heed the voice of reason and national interest and will suppress their selfish concerns and devote themselves, in a true spirit of national unity, to the enormous endeavour of rebuilding the country.”

25. “My delegation wishes to recall that the achievements of that presence over several months are considerable, even if they tend to be eclipsed by the unstable situation in South Mogadishu. The primary purpose of international intervention was to put an end to famine. That humanitarian objective has now been fulfilled. UNOSOM has also facilitated the restoration of a public-health policy and the resumption of agricultural and commercial activities, and it is seeking to establish judicial and police structures conducive to the normal functioning of a civilian society. UNOSOM is also trying to encourage organs of democratic expression.”

26. “Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French): The resolution just adopted by the Security Council, which extends the mandate of the United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM II) for six months, is evidence of the ongoing commitment of the international community and of the United Nations to the restoration of political institutions in Somalia. France, which has made an important contribution to UNOSOM, is convinced that the Somali people - and this point has been stressed by the Secretary- General - is in favour of the maintenance of the United Nations presence to support the process of reconciliation and rehabilitation agreed to at the Addis Ababa meetings in January and March.”

I wish in conclusion to stress my Government's deep concern at the effects that the continuation of the conflict is having on the humanitarian situation. My delegation welcomes the appeal the Council is making today for increased humanitarian assistance to the civilian populations of the region and recalls its insistence on ensuring that such assistance is guaranteed free access.”

28. “We demand the immediate cessation of armed hostilities, the unilateral withdrawal of occupying forces from the Zangelan district and the withdrawal from other recently occupied areas of the Azerbaijani Republic in accordance with the adjusted timetable of the Minsk Group. It behoves the parties concerned to demonstrate their readiness to refrain from recourse to the use of force and their genuine commitment to a negotiated settlement, in particular by means of the adoption of a unilateral cease-fire declaration and by participating constructively in the negotiations under way within the framework of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE).”

29. “Mr. MERIMEBEE (France) (interpretation from French): My Government is seriously concerned at the recent resumption of hostilities between the parties involved in the Nagorny Karabakh conflict and by the occupation of the Zangelan district, which has led to the forced displacement of tens of thousands of persons, thus making the civilian population of the region suffer even more. These events deserve to be most vigorously condemned. The Council has just done that unambiguously by adopting this resolution. The acquisition of territory by force is inadmissible and doing so for the purposes of negotiation cannot be countenanced.”

30. “This is no empty offer. The entire mechanism set up by resolution 731 (1992), resolution 748 (1992) and today's resolution would cease to apply in those circumstances, and only a Security Council resolution would reactivate it, if necessary. We hope, however, that after this first decisive step Libya will be anxious to achieve full reintegration into the international community. All it would have to do would be to comply with its other obligations. The report then submitted by the Secretary-General would allow the Security Council to take a decision on the formal and final lifting of the sanctions regime. Finally, I express the hope that the Libyan authorities will heed our Council's message and will take the just measures expected of them by the families of the victims.”

31. “My Government hopes that this reinforcement of the sanctions, albeit moderate, will make the authorities in Tripoli understand that the resolve of the international community and the Security Council is unflagging and that they will not be satisfied by the indefinite continuation of the status quo. The three sponsors of the resolution have been accused of having a hidden agenda against the Libyan regime. The text of the resolution that our Council has just adopted shows that that is not so, and it paves the way for a speedy solution. If the Libyan Government cooperates effectively with my country's judicial authorities in the UTA 772 case, and if it hands over to the competent courts the two suspects in the attack on Pan Am 103, the Council will immediately be able to adopt a resolution suspending the implementation of all the sanctions.”

32. “Unfortunately, the Libyan authorities have shown yet again that they only desire to play for time, and they continue their delaying tactics and their obstruction. We consider that the Libyan Government has sought literally to take advantage of our Council. There is a clear contradiction between the letters dated 29 September and 1 October 1993 to the Secretary-General from Libya's Foreign Minister and Colonel Qaddafi's latest positions, which close the door to any solution. Libya may still hope to have it believed that it is prepared to do what the Security Council expects of it, but no one can be duped any longer. It was essential to respond. That is why we calmly but resolutely consulted the other members of the Council about strengthening the sanctions. We are now, much to our regret, caught up in the logic of escalation.”

33. “Our three Governments had thought they could expect a swift settlement of this very painful matter, thus making it possible for the families of the 441 victims of the attacks against the Pan Am and UTA flights to obtain justice at last. My delegation would like to express its great appreciation to the Secretary-General, whose considerable efforts have been thwarted by the evident bad faith of the Libyan authorities. They have repeatedly made declarations of intent and have systematically been evasive when the time came to act. In their desire to reach a successful outcome, my Government and the Governments of the United Kingdom and the United States, despite everything, decided to give that country a final chance to prove its good will by complying with its obligations before 1 October 1993.”

It is almost 20 months since the Security Council requested, in resolutions 731 (1992) and 748 (1992), that that State commit itself concretely and definitively to cease all forms of terrorism and all assistance to terrorist groups; that it hand over the two suspects in the attack on Pan Am 103; that it fully meet the requests of the French magistrate in charge of the investigation into the attack on UTA 772; and, finally, that it provide all the evidence and all the information available to it regarding these two crimes.”
