“Following consultations among members of the Security Council, I have been authorized to make the following statement on behalf of the Council: "The Security Council expresses its grave concern at and condemnation of the military coup of 21 October 1993 against the democratically elected Government of Burundi. "The Security Council deeply regrets and strongly condemns the acts of violence and the loss of life which have been caused by the perpetrators of the military coup. It demands that they desist forthwith from taking any action which would exacerbate tension and plunge the country into more violence and bloodshed, which could have serious implications for peace and stability in the region.”

“My delegation welcomes in this regard the support given by the Council to the continuation of the efforts of Ambassador Brunner in cooperation with the Chairman-in-Office of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe. We very much hope, from this standpoint, that the conditions will very soon be spelled out for holding a conference under the auspices of the United Nations, or according to any other formula which would win the consent of the parties. My delegation awaits with interest the forthcoming report of the Secretary-General on the future of UNOMIG and on the political aspects of the role which the United Nations could play.”

“The deployment of the first observers of the United Nations Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG), decided upon last August, was a primary condition for this, because there can be no settlement without a lasting cease-fire. The situation created in Abkhazia, however, raises questions about the future of UNOMIG. We approve, in this regard, the holding measures taken by the Secretary-General and hope that he will soon report to us on any new measures he intends to propose. Conversations undertaken with the parties separately in Geneva last week by the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General represent a first element of hope for the establishment of talks.”

“In the resolution the Council calls upon the parties to facilitate the return of refugees and displaced persons to their homes and urges Member States to contribute towards the humanitarian-assistance efforts already provided. Furthermore - and this is an essential point - all States are called upon to prevent the provision of any assistance other than humanitarian assistance to the Abkhaz side, in particular the supply of weapons and munitions, which so far it has not been lacking. Turning to substance, I wish to say that my Government says particular attention to every effort which could lead to a comprehensive political settlement.”

“Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French): My Government is gravely concerned at the deterioration of the Situation in Georgia that followed by the breaking by the Abkhaz side of the cease-fire agreement of 27 July. The withdrawal of Georgian forces and authorities from the Abkhaz region has resulted in numerous violations of human rights, and there have also been alarming reports of atrocities and acts of "ethnic cleansing". Finally, tens of thousands of refugees have fled Abkhazia and are now suffering grave deprivation. In those circumstances, my delegation welcomes the resolution adopted by our Council today. From a humanitarian standpoint, it supports the Secretary-General's decision to send a fact-finding mission to look into those violations of human rights.”

“The decision taken today can be understood only as a means to ensure the strict implementation of the sanctions measures previously imposed by this Council with relation to the supply to Haiti of petroleum, petroleum products, arms and related materiel. It is thus clear that the authorization given in operative paragraph 1 of the resolution adopted today is restricted in scope, space and time by the clearly limited purpose which constitutes its raison d'etre and is intended to have effect only until those sanctions measures are suspended or terminated. The Brazilian Government hopes that this outcome will be achieved, sooner rather than later, on the basis of the early restoration of democracy to Haiti. I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council. There are no further speakers on my list.”

“Under those circumstances, after carefully pondering the various implications of the situation in Haiti, Brazil decided to lend its support to the resolution adopted today, on the understanding that it does not and will not constitute a precedent for the work of the United Nations. The Latin American and Caribbean region rightly takes pride in a diplomatic tradition that is based on a permanent concern for the peaceful solution of problems and the non-use of force in international relations. Brazil highly values that tradition, which we have no doubt will continue to flourish in the years to come.”

“It is embodied, above all, in the fact that the action decided upon today by the Security Council was taken in response to a formal and explicit request by the legitimate Government of Haiti for the strengthening of the provisions of resolution 873 (1993). It is the view of the Brazilian Government that that request, which is referred to in the preamble of the resolution just adopted, was essential for the Security Council to act as it did. In addition to that, the sui generis nature of the resolution adopted today is also reflected in the fact that the measures which it is intended to enforce emanated originally from the Organization of American States, which has recommended to the United Nations that it give mandatory effect to the sanctions adopted at the regional level.”

“It was thus out of grave concern and a sense of urgency impressed on us by the seriousness of the latest events in Haiti that, yesterday and today, we have faced the need to address a unique and exceptional situation with equally exceptional and unique measures, particularly the authorization for Member States to use measures that may include the halting of inward maritime traffic, with the exclusive purpose of enforcing the sanctions related to oil and arms established in resolutions 841 (1993) and 873 (1993). That uniqueness and exceptional character is not only a result of the extraordinarily deplorable political and humanitarian Situation that now prevails in Haiti.”

“Three days ago the Council condemned the acts of intimidation that prevented the disembarkation of a United Nations contingent in Port-au-Prince and decided to reimpose the sanctions measures provided for in resolution 841 (1993), aimed at bringing the Haitian military authorities to compliance with the Governors Island Agreement. It is with great and deep sorrow that we now mourn the late Minister of Justice, Mr. Guy Malary, assassinated in a cowardly way just two days ago.”

“Unfortunately, that renewed hope was soon to be frustrated by events - tragic events - involving to a large extent the responsibility of those authorities. The activities of armed groups of civilians, carried out with complete impunity, have created in Haiti a climate of terror and violence which over the last few days has escalated in a way that has shocked the whole international community. We express our recognition of the continued dedication and courage of the Special Envoy of the Secretaries-General of the United Nations and the Organization of American States, Mr. Dante Caputo, whose efforts, under particularly difficult circumstances, continue to be crucial. The Security Council has already expressed its outrage at the killing of supporters of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Brazil. For Brazil it is particularly distressing to witness the accelerated deterioration of the situation in Haiti, a member of the Latin American and Caribbean Group of States. It is hard to express the great sorrow we experience at the recurring incidents of violence which tell a sad but, we hope, not irreversible story of missed opportunities for democracy in Haiti. The Governors Island Agreement and the transition process embodied in it brought us renewed bright hopes for the future of the Haitian people. We had indeed expected that the military and police authorities would understand the clear message sent by the international community and by the Security Council.”

“France is of the view that the withdrawal of the Commander-in-Chief of the Police Force and of the Commander-in- Chief of the Armed Forces of Haiti must occur immediately, in keeping with items 7 and 8 of the Governor's Island Agreement. My Government will continue to take steps to help to bring about the return of President Aristide on 30 October and the full restoration of the rule of law in Haiti.”

“A process of peace and restoration of democracy in a country cannot be held hostage to a few armed individuals. My Government would recall that it is incumbent upon the military authorities to restore public order, to ensure the safety of members of the legal Government headed Mr. Robert Malval and to make it possible for the United Nations Mission in Haiti to be deployed without delay. This is not the first time that the Security Council has implemented measures calling for the use of maritime monitoring of the implementation of sanctions. In our view, those rules of engagement, which have proved their effectiveness, must be based on established rules.”

“Mr. MERIMEE (France) (interpretation from French): The unanimous adoption of this resolution, which strengthens the measures contained in resolution 873 (1993), adopted barely three days ago, attests to the Security Council's unswerving determination to secure full implementation of the Governor's Island Agreement. Those measures are part of a clear-cut political strategy that will also form the basis of the international community's reactions to subsequent developments in the situation in Haiti. France was deeply moved by the base crime perpetrated against Mr. Guy Malary, Minister of Justice, who had loyally served the legal Government. It strongly condemns those responsible for that assassination as well as for any other violent act.”

“Over the past few days the authorities responsible for the armed forces and police have fallen far short of what was expected of them in order to ensure the pursuance and successful conclusion of the democratic process in Haiti. The Council thus had to respond appropriately but making it clear that it will continue to support firmly the restoration of legitimacy, democracy and the rule of law in Haiti. To do otherwise would not be consistent with the goals and principles of the Organization. It is important that the authorities responsible for public security in Haiti understand this.”

“It was and it is clearly the duty of the military and security authorities in Haiti to ensure conditions for UNMIH personnel to arrive safely in Haiti and afterwards to perform their tasks without any obstacles. The Organization of American States, through its Permanent Council, has condemned the acts of intimidation of 11 October as well as the lack of cooperation on the part of the military and police authorities to enable to United Nations contingent to disembark. In resolution 861 (1993) adopted last August the Security Council had already indicated that the measures of sanctions which were then suspended would be reimposed should the Haitian security authorities fail to implement in good faith the provisions of the Governors Island Agreement.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Brazil. The Brazilian Government received with great apprehension the news of the aggravation of the situation in Haiti over the past few days. We cannot but be extremely disappointed and concerned at the fact that the commands of the Haitian Armed Forces and the police are not complying with the provisions of the Governors Island Agreement and, in particular, are not taking the measures that are required for ensuring the safety and the freedom of movement of the United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMIH). The events of 11 October when, by acts of intimidation and violence, a ship carrying a contingent of UNMIH members was prevented from docking in Port au Prince, thus making it impossible for UNMIH personnel to disembark, were extremely serious.”

“Finally, they must immediately implement points 7, 8 and 9 of the Governors Island Agreement, which provides, in particular, that before the return of President Aristide, the Commander-in-Chief of the Police Forces and the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces should be replaced. It should be very clear that if these provisions are not implemented within the necessary time frame, France will not hesitate to adopt additional measures against those responsible for the failure of the process. France, however, would like to believe that the interests of the Haitian people and reason will prevail. Finally, I would recall that the French Government fully supports the action of the Prime Minister, Mr. Robert Malval, and that of the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General, Mr. Dante Caputo.”

“France hopes that those in charge of the army and the police will use this time in order to decided to comply fully with the Governors Island Agreement, which should lead to the reinstating of the legal authorities and the return of President Aristide on 30 October. If sanctions are to be lifted, those responsible for the present impasse will have to give formal guarantees of their full cooperation with the United Nations Mission in Haiti. They must demonstrate that they are committed to strict compliance with the orders received from the constitutional Government.”

But, there was no alternative, and my delegation is very pleased at the Council's extremely prompt action, which bears out its determination to ensure that the process of peace and the restoration of legality in Haiti, set in train by the Governors Island Agreement, is successfully concluded. France condemns those responsible for acts of intimidation and violence which, contrary to the commitments they entered into, have prevented the deployment of the United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMTH) .
