“It is a great pleasure to welcome Mr. Passy and his contribution to our debate. Indeed, the OSCE has tremendous competence. Its field missions are uniquely equipped to give the early- warning messages that he has been speaking about, and I also welcome the contribution of the OSCE in addressing regional conflicts in the Caucasus and in the Eurasian space. I wish also once again to join our voice to those that have condemned the atrocious killing of a Bulgarian citizen. I think that the idea of a code of conduct in such situations is a valuable idea that we should support politically. There are a number of speakers remaining on my list for this meeting. For very practical biological reasons, I intend, with the concurrence of the members of the Council, to suspend the meeting until 3 p.m. The meeting was suspended at 1.25 p.m.”

“I thank the representative of Spain for his contribution, which was rich and dense. I welcome his suggestions on a structured and substantive dialogue and exchange of privileged information between relevant players, complementarity, subsidiarity and lack of rigidity. I think he is very right to stress the need to seek a flexible and tailor-made solution to each conflict. It is now my great pleasure to call on our good friend, the Chairman-in-Office of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, Mr. Solomon Passy, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Bulgaria, a friendly neighbour of Romania. I am very happy that he could make it and I am personally grateful to him for taking the time to be with us.”

“Cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations, as well as among regional and subregional organizations, should be further encouraged.

I now invite the Deputy Executive Secretary of the Commonwealth of Independent States, His Excellency Mr. Dimitry Boulakhov, to take the floor.”

We also look forward to seeing more structured dialogue in the future with that important organization, which is playing a greater role in the global security architecture. I should also like to thank Mr. Simmons for his contribution with regard to the threat of weapons of mass destruction and small arms and light weapons. Indeed, those are challenges we must face together. In addition, I thank him for his contribution concerning the Secretary-General.”

(spoke in English) I now call on the Deputy Assistant Secretary- General for Political Affairs of NATO, Mr. Robert F. Simmons.”

Their efforts should be targeted to addressing the root causes of any conflict and instability worldwide. I also welcome the representative of Brazil's remarks about early warning, the contribution of non-governmental organizations and the media in that respect.”

“I thank the representative of the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN) for his kind words addressed to our delegation. Allow me to emphasize that the comparative advantages the representative of ASEAN has just mentioned are truly very important in our debate, as are the annual meetings that ASEAN holds with the United Nations. These are practical measures. I believe this is a subject of interest to other regions as well.”

“Recent discussions of the Security Council have confirmed that cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations and arrangements is based upon the United Nations Charter, including when it comes to peacekeeping and stabilization processes. This practice and some of Ambassador Konuzin's suggestions should be attentively considered in the future as well. I now give the floor to Mr. Alounkeo Kittikhoun, Chairperson of the Standing Committee of the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN).”

“I thank Mr. Feith for his statement. He was correct in quoting from the European Security Strategy, which is very relevant to what we are discussing. None of the new threats is purely military, nor can any be tackled by purely military means. Addressing this is, in fact, what we are trying to do now.”

“I thank Mr. Luis Ernesto Derbez for his kind words on this initiative, which, in fact, continues the excellent proposal that our Mexican friends made.

“I thank the Secretary-General for his statement and for his kind words addressed to me. In accordance with the understanding reached among Council members, I wish to remind all speakers to limit their statements to no more than five minutes in order to enable the Council to carry out its work expeditiously. Delegations with lengthy statements are kindly requested to circulate their texts in writing and to deliver a condensed version when speaking in the Chamber. As another measure to optimize the use of our time in order to allow as many delegations as possible to take the floor, I will not individually invite speakers to take seats at the table or invite them to resume their seats at the side of the Council Chamber. When a speaker is taking the floor, the conference officer will seat the next speaker on the list at the table.”

“Romania chose to convene a meeting on cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations in stabilization processes to improve interaction between the United Nations and regional bodies and to determine ways forward for collaborative and reinforced relationships. I therefore invite those participating in the discussion today to give consideration to principles and mechanisms for enhanced cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations in the future. I wish to express my appreciation for the presence among us of heads and representatives of regional organizations. Their participation in this meeting will greatly enhance the prospects for strengthening coordination between the United Nations and those organizations in stabilization processes.”

“The topic is not new; nor is it ground- breaking. And it is certainly not anywhere close to being concluded. To paraphrase the words of the Foreign Minister of Mexico, Mr. Luis Ernesto Derbez, who presided over the Council in April 2003 during a meeting on a related topic (see S/PV.4739), as long as we aspire to build a secure, prosperous and democratic international environment that is governed by the rule of law, we shall continue to bear the unavoidable responsibility of bringing out the best there is in the cooperation between the United Nations and regional arrangements.”
