  2. “Regrettably, we still have a long road before us; many steps have yet to be taken in order to secure observance of the cease-fire by all the parties concerned and its immediate implementation in Mogadiscio so that there can be an immediate end to the plight of the Somali people. I have received today a directive from the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States confirming the League's full support for the draft resolution before the Council and the League's willingness, immediately the draft resolution is adopted, to coordinate with the United Nations in order to implement the provisions of the draft resolution; the directive also confirms the League's willingness to measures necessary for success as a result of the draft resolution.”

  3. “I wish in this respect, and on behalf of the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, to note with appreciation the great efforts made by the Secretary-General of the United Nations and by the regional organizations that took part in that mission. I also wish to commend the results and recommendations of that mission. I believe that what took place was a unique and new experience of creative cooperation between the United Nations and the regional organizations, in accordance with Chapter VIII of the Charter of the United Nations. There can be no doubt that important steps were taken towards achieving the goals to which we aspire in respect of Somalia.”

  4. “The Arab League welcomed the adoption of Security Council resolution 733 (1992) and confirmed its willingness to take part in implementing it. It also welcomed the Secretary-General's initiative of inviting the warring factions in Mogadiscio to New York in February last, and it also took part, with the Organization of African Unity (OAU) and the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), in the meeting that was held at United Nations Headquarters which concluded in an agreement for a cease-fire between the warring factions. The League of Arab States also participated, with the representative of those organizations, in Mr. Jonah's mission to Mogadiscio, where a new cease-fire agreement was issued. This is the mission that is described in detail in the report of the Secretary-General (S/26693), which is before the Council today.”

  5. “After it became clear that there were difficulties in implementing the Djibouti resolution, an extraordinary session was held on 5 January last to consider the deteriorating situation in Somalia, and resolution 5157 was adopted and transmitted to the Security Council as document §/23448, The League of Arab States appreciates the meritorious efforts of the United Nations and its bodies in this respect. It has also followed, with keen interest and appreciation, the great efforts of the Security Council and of Mr. Boutros-Ghali, and noted the fact that he has on many occasions sent Mr. Jonah to Somalia with a view to establishing the conditions necessary for the cease-fire and for the steps leading to national reconciliation.”

  6. “Since the beginning of the crisis, the Arab League has frequently called on the warring factions to stop the civil war and to seek a solution to the crisis by peaceful means. The League of Arab States has also called on all the specialized agencies and the Arab Funds concerned to give immediate help to the Somali people. Moreover, the Council of the League charged the Commission on Somalia, which was established for that purpose last May, with directing an active Arab effort aimed at solving the crisis. The Commission, after consideration, recommended that there should be an item on the deteriorating situation in Somalia on the agenda of the Council of the Arab League at its regular ninety-sixth session, and resolution 5097 to that effect was issued last September by the Council.”

  7. “Allow me at the outset to express to you, Mr. President, and to the other members of the Security Council my most sincere thanks for allowing me to participate in the debate today with a view to finding a solution for the tragic situation in fraternal Somalia. Since the inception of the regrettable developments in Somalia, the members of the League of Arab States have tried to contain the crisis. From the beginning of the crisis, the Secretary-General of the League set up contacts with many of the warring factions with a view to stopping the carnage and finding an acceptable peaceful solution. He also sent, on many occasions, a special envoy to the area in order to meet directly with the parties concerned. He also sent the Assistant Secretary-General of the League to the reconciliation conference held in Djibouti.”
