  2. “The Government would like to take this opportunity to thank the Special Representatives of the United Nations in Burundi, and its other bilateral and multilateral partners involved in significant activities in the transition process in the five priority areas of the joint transition plan, for their willing collaboration, and to thank them in advance for their efforts in implementing it. It should be recalled that the programmes covered include democracy, governance and institution-building; human rights and transitional justice; the rule of law, security and stability; and economic and social development. The Government of Burundi would again like to thank the United Nations and its bilateral and multilateral partners for their commitment to supporting the Government's programme for the comprehensive development of the Burundian people.”

  3. “Regarding the joint plan of transition from the United Nations to Burundi, I wish to confirm that it reflects a permanent arrangement between the Government and the United Nations Office in Burundi. The content of the document and the establishment of the transition steering group have been carried out in accordance with paragraph 3 of resolution 2137 (2014), whose main goal is to provide high-level strategic direction aimed at implementing the resolution, including by facilitating the transition process and supporting the effective fulfilment of the mandate of the United Nations Office in Burundi through 31 December.”

  4. “I should add that the budget is part of the support package provided to Burundi by the Peacebuilding Fund, amounting to $50 million over the past few years and covering the first two phases of peacebuilding in my country. The areas covered in the plan are focused on Government programmes, including those directed towards social cohesion and political dialogue, young people's participation in political and social life, reconciliation initiatives, the democratic exercise of human rights and the peaceful settlement of land disputes. I take this opportunity to request that all the funds pledged to the implementation of all these programmes be speedily released so that the people concerned can benefit from them as soon as possible.”

  5. “Concerning the establishment of a truth and reconciliation commission in accordance withresolution 1606 (2005) and the Arusha Peace and Reconciliation Agreement for Burundi of 28 August 2000, and as a result of the technical work and national consultations held in 2009, it should be noted that remarkable progress was achieved with Parliament's enactment in April of a law on the subject. The members of these structures will be nominated very shortly and their nomination will take into account the requirements of the relevant Security Council resolutions. I cannot conclude this statement without mentioning the third phase of the priority peacebuilding plan for Burundi, to which the Peacebuilding Support Office has just approved the allocation of $11.65 million.”

  8. “As has already been stated many times, including in the General Assembly at the start of the work of transitioning from the United Nations Office in Burundi to the country team in March, the Government of Burundi is aware that the programme I have just mentioned constitutes the be-all and end-all of these activities and concerns, and has continued to improve on the results that have already been achieved in the aforementioned areas. These are also laid out in most of the principal strategic programme tools in Vision Burundi 2025 and the second Strategic Framework for Growth and the Fight against Poverty, as the Special Representative of the Secretary-General mentioned.”
