  1. I should like to inform the Council that I have received letters from the representatives of Japan and the Republic of Korea in which they request to be invited to participate in the discussion of the item on the Council's agenda. In conformity with the usual practice, I propose, with the consent of the Council, to invite those representatives to participate in the discussion without the right to vote, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Charter and rule 37 of the Council's provisional rules of procedure. There being no objection, it is so decided. On behalf of the Council, I welcome the Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea, His Excellency Mr. Han Sung-Joo. At the invitation of the President, Mr. Han Sung-Joo (Republic of Korea) took a place at the Council table; Mr.

  2. On the diplomatic level, we shall soon have to resume discussions on what has been the main focus of the 14 negotiations for several months now: after the institutional arrangements come the territorial questions. In this respect, the European Union's plan seems to us to still be the only basis for a possible agreement. In conclusion, I should like to recall my Government's unwavering commitment to find a solution in the former Yugoslavia, whether through our participation in UNPROFOR or through the role we intend to play within the framework of the International Conference on the Former Yugoslavia. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. There are no further speakers. The Security Council has thus concluded the present stage of its consideration of the item on the agenda.

  3. We are particularly pleased by the latest changes to the text, made this morning, which unambiguously strengthen the Council's commitment to approve later all the reinforcements requested by the Secretary-General for both Bosnia and Croatia. It is now clear that by the end of April the authorized strength of 13 UNPROFOR will increase by 10,050, in accordance with the wishes of the Secretary-General. Our actions must now proceed in two directions. We must consolidate what has been achieved on the ground, with UNPROFOR backing, wherever necessary, the parties' will to make peace. In this regard, my Government would like to issue a warning: UNPROFOR can never be used to protect territorial gains, just as negotiated disengagements can never be used for military advances.

  4. Although this joint pressure by the international community as a whole was welcome, the European Union, unfortunately, was very much alone for many long months in seeking a solution. The need for a concerted approach is confirmed by recent achievements: the beginning of a return to normal life in Sarajevo, the reopening of the Tuzla airport, the signing of the Washington agreements and, finally, the cease-fire agreement between Croats and Serbs in the United Nations protected areas. Now more than ever, resolute action by our Council is needed to help this progress. We therefore welcome the adoption of resolution 908 (1994), which supports the principle behind the Secretary-General's proposals and also makes it possible for the Secretariat to meet the immediate needs, which he has set at 3,500 men.

  5. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of France. For several weeks now, we have seen ever more signs of hope for a peaceful solution in the former Yugoslavia. The siege of Sarajevo has been lifted thanks to the resolve of the international community, which seems to have generated encouraging momentum. This event may prove to have been a turning-point. The Serbian party has come to understand that its policy of force and fait accompli was a dead end. Essential players decided to become involved in the search for a political settlement, in particular the United States. The Russian Federation was persuaded to play a decisive role on the ground in Sarajevo and contributed even more actively to the diplomatic process.

  14. I should like to draw the attention of the members of the Council to the following revision to be made to the text of the draft resolution contained in document $/1994/352, in its provisional form: the sixth preambular paragraph should read as follows: "Recalling paragraph 22 of the Secretary General's report (S/1994/283),".

  17. We have too many examples of peace-keeping forces of that kind, condemned to have their mandates extended indefinitely, perhaps to the satisfaction of the parties concerned, but with no gain for the cause of peace. As soon as a lasting political agreement has been concluded and the conditions for United Nations intervention in line with the Organization's principles have been guaranteed the French Government will be prepared to consider favourably the establishment of a peace-keeping operation and to take action in the Council so that a decision to that end is taken without delay. This is, moreover, the signal sent by resolution 906 (1994), which we fully endorse. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. There are no further speakers.

  18. Once an overall political agreement has been concluded it will be up to the Council to decide on the deployment of a peace-keeping operation with the mandate of ensuring that commitments are honoured. In this connection, I should like to make two points that my authorities regard as essential. First, United Nations involvement requires respect for certain rules - in particular, the impartiality of the forces in the field and effective control by the Security Council over carrying out their mandate. Secondly, with regard to the manner of deployment there can be no question of setting up a new buffer force that would result only in freezing the military situation and political positions.

  19. We therefore call on the parties to resume negotiations without delay, and in this connection we welcome the statement on this topic issued on 24 March by the Government of Georgia. The parties will have to demonstrate flexibility and realism in the negotiations. We strongly urge them to take the fullest account of the proposals put forward by the Secretary-General's Special Envoy, to whom we pay tribute and in whom we again express our confidence. The fact that we so earnestly desire flexibility and realism does not mean that we are prepared to renounce the fundamental principles set out in the United Nations Charter. I am thinking here particularly about respect for the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Georgia, which the Council has unambiguously reaffirmed in the resolution that it has just adopted.

  20. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as representative of France. The draft resolution on which my delegation has just voted in favour is not the one that the French Government would have wished to see adopted today by the Security Council. We would have much preferred today to be making provisions that would enable the United Nations to make its contribution to the implementation of a comprehensive settlement agreed to between the parties. The priority from now on is therefore the resumption of negotiations, so that there is an end to the fighting and to the suffering inflicted on the civil population. The international community must not resign itself to the impasse that followed the last meeting in New York, at the highest level between the Government of Georgia and the Abkhaz side.

  26. "The Council welcomes the Secretary-General's appointment of a special mission to Afghanistan, in accordance with General Assembly resolution 48/208. This mission will canvass a broad spectrum of Afghanistan's leaders to solicit their views on how the United Nations can best assist Afghanistan in facilitating national rapprochement and reconstruction. "The Council supports this mission, which is due to leave Geneva soon, and urges all Afghans to assist it in carrying out its mandate and thus promote a cessation of hostilities, the resumption of humanitarian aid and the restoration of peace in Afghanistan." This statement will be issued as a document of the Security Council under the symbol S/1994/PRST/12.

"The Council therefore calls for an immediate end to the obstacles to the passage of humanitarian aid in order to ensure that future supplies are distributed without hindrance to the whole of the population. In this regard, the Council expresses its appreciation to the countries in the region for facilitating efforts to provide humanitarian assistance to Kabul and other provinces of the country. Furthermore, the Council calls upon the international community to extend urgent humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan in order to alleviate the suffering of the Afghan people. "The Council stresses the importance that it attaches to full compliance with international humanitarian law in all its aspects and recalls that those who violate international humanitarian law bear individual responsibility.

  28. 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 deeply regrets that the food blockade imposed on Kabul continues. This situation is increasing the hardships of the population in all sectors of the capital, since the humanitarian aid that has so far been provided has not alleviated substantially the plight of hundreds of thousands of the city's starving inhabitants. "The Council continues to believe that the seriousness of the humanitarian situation is entirely due to the ongoing fighting in Afghanistan, and calls for its immediate cessation. This fighting has been the cause of the suffering of the Afghan population and of repeated interruptions in the delivery of humanitarian aid in that country.

  36. Furthermore, to avoid the recurrence of any similar tragedy, thought should be given to disarming settlers when they move outside the settlements in the occupied territories. Finally, this process should be accompanied by confidence- building measures such as the continuing freeing of prisoners in addition to what has already been done. The massacre at the Cave of the Patriarchs constitutes a further attempt on the part of certain extremists to thwart the prospects of peace between the Arabs and the Israelis. It is imperative that we do not allow ourselves to be dragged into the vicious circle of confrontation. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I call on the representative of Israel.

  37. That presence could, for example, take the form of the dispatch of civilian observers of the United Nations with a monitoring and verification mission, the details of which remain to be defined. My Government is anxious that the Hebron massacre should not be allowed to call into question the peace process and the progress it has made. That is why the provisions which urge the parties to step up the peace negotiations in order to implement as soon as possible the Declaration of Principles of 13 September 1993 seem to it to be of the greatest importance. In this regard, we believe that the question of settlements and their possible regrouping must be the subject of negotiations.

  38. As my authorities have repeatedly stressed, it is for the Government of Israel to do everything possible to guarantee the security of the Palestinian civilian population. My delegation welcomes the adoption of resolution 904 (1994), of which it is a sponsor. It condemns, without the slightest ambiguity, the massacre in the Mosque of Abraham. It calls upon the Government of Israel to fulfil its responsibilities in the occupied territories, including Jerusalem, pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Geneva Convention. My Government attaches particular importance to provisions recommending that measures to protect Palestinian civilians be taken, in particular through a temporary foreign or international presence in accordance with the terms of the Declaration of Principles of 13 September 1993.

    1994-03-18 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.3351 (1994) · source

  39. My Government has been in contact with the parties to facilitate the resumption of the dialogue and the adoption of the necessary measures for the restoration of confidence. It has also repeatedly insisted that the Council take an official stand as soon as possible. The understandable feelings of the Palestinian civilian population indeed called for a prompt reaction. The Israeli authorities' strong condemnation of this massacre, as well as the urgent measures decided upon by the Israeli cabinet, constitute a first step in the right direction, in particular the measures designed to disarm and control the extremist settlers and to establish a commission of enquiry to shed light on all the circumstances of this tragedy.

  40. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of France. The feelings of horror and indignation unanimously aroused by the Hebron massacre prompted the Council to meet urgently to debate the situation and to examine the measures necessary to continue the peace process, at the same time as discussions were in progress on its formal reaction, whereby it would voice its condemnation and make its decisions public. France, for its part, immediately condemned with the utmost vigour this act of terrorism, committed in a place of prayer, and called upon the parties to rise above their legitimate feelings so that the positive developments of recent months should not be called into question.
