  2. Those precarious living conditions represent potential threats to regional stability, especially since this humanitarian crisis is aggravated by a difficult socioeconomic situation, resulting in the irregular payment of civil servants' salaries and a high unemployment rate, which especially affects young people. The easing of restrictions is therefore necessary, both for the delivery of humanitarian aid and for the movement of goods and people. In that regard, Cote d'Ivoire underscores the crucial role that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) plays in addressing the needs of nearly 5.4 million people.

  3. Similarly, Cote d'Ivoire supports all possible efforts towards inter-Palestinian reconciliation, including between Fatah and Hamas, with a View to enabling the Palestinian Authority, which has the primary responsibility for meeting the social and humanitarian needs of the Palestinian people, to exercise its sovereign functions in Gaza and the West Bank. My delegation also remains concerned about the humanitarian situation in Gaza owing to the extremely difficult socioeconomic conditions, as well as difficulties with the energy supply and in access to basic services.

  4. My country remains convinced that a lasting and mutually acceptable solution to the conflict can be reached only through strictly adhering to international law and the relevant Security Council resolutions, including resolution 2334 (2016). In that regard, we reaffirm our commitment to the solution of two States peacefully coexisting within the framework of the 1967 borders. My delegation also calls on the Palestinian and Israeli authorities to ensure respect for the rights of all vulnerable persons, including children, who are paying a high price in the conflict, an aspect that various UNICEF reports regularly stress.

  5. On the one hand, an appropriate framework for negotiations must be established and the political process launched, and, on the other, there must be compliance with the resolutions on the Palestinian question and international law. My delegation laments the fact that to date no compromise has been reached to meet the aspirations of both sides, namely, the right of the Palestinians to self-determination and independence and Israel's right to ensure its security. In response to that, and in accordance with the recommendations contained in the report of the Secretary-General dated 26 August, Cote d'Ivoire calls on the international community to redouble its efforts to resume the political process for a comprehensive, just and lasting settlement of the crisis, as soon as possible.

  6. C6te d'Ivoire once again deplores the lack of consensus within the Council, which impeded the adoption of a draft resolution yesterday on the humanitarian situation in Syria aimed at easing the suffering of millions of Syrians. We are convinced that there is no military solution to that crisis. My country wishes to reiterate its support for the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for his tireless efforts to find a lasting political solution to that crisis, in line with the provisions of resolution 2254 (2015). Turning to the Palestinian question, Cote d'Ivoire, given the impasse in the Israeli-Palestinian negotiations, believes that the following imperatives are necessary.

  7. Ms. Niamke (Cote d'Ivoire) (spoke in French): I commend Mr. Nickolay Mladenov, Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process and Personal Representative ofthe Secretary-General, for his detailed briefing on the latest developments in the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question. Cote d'Ivoire notes with regret the persistent climate of violence in the Middle East, which is increasingly detrimental to the prospect of the restoration of peace in the region. Given the complexity of the situation, it is important for the Council to propose innovative approaches to peacefully resolve the various conflicts in the region. With regard to the conflict in Syria, the consequences on the region are worrisome.

  8. My delegation commends Mr. Mladenov on his resolute commitment, which clearly illustrates the mediation efforts of the United Nations in the quest for a negotiated political solution to the current crisis between Israelis and Palestinians. Cote d'Ivoire would like to reiterate its support and encourage him to continue his good offices with the parties to the conflict. The Council also has an urgent duty to overcome differences and work towards peace, security and stability in the Middle East.

  9. The estimated unemployment rate of 53 per cent, the drastic decline in the supply of decent housing, school and hospital infrastructure and the continued decrease in basic social services, such as drinking water and electricity, are all vulnerabilities that deserve the attention of development partners and humanitarian agencies. Cote d'Ivoire reiterates its call for a convergence of views among Council members and encourages them to work to mobilize the necessary assistance to meet the essential needs of those affected. My delegation also urges international partners, as providers of humanitarian assistance, to continue their support for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, whose crucial role in alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian people is well established.

  10. cote d'Ivoire has faith in the virtues of dialogue and urges the international community to intensify its mediation efforts in order to bring both parties back to the negotiating table for further peace talks without preconditions and under the auspices of the United Nations. This is the opportunity for my country to reaffirm its commitment to the security of the State of Israel and the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and, consequently, our support for a solution involving two States, coexisting peacefully within the framework of the 1967 borders. The humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate, while the ongoing opposition between Fatah and Hamas further complicates the development of appropriate responses to the many difficulties faced by the Palestinian people.

  11. The lack of a viable framework for dialogue between the Israeli and Palestinian sides within which they could resolve their differences leads to further mistrust, which fuels outbreaks of violence. In the light of that impasse, my country encourages the parties concerned to listen carefully to the calls for dialogue launched by the international community. C6te d'Ivoire remains convinced that just and lasting peace is not possible without a negotiated political solution and compromises on the most complex issues. To that end, it is important that both sides refrain from any actions that could lead to a resurgence of deadly clashes, which would ruin hopes for peace and undoubtedly plunge the region into a spiral of conflicts with disastrous consequences.

  12. Ms. Niamke (Cote d'Ivoire) (spoke in French): Welcome to New York, Mr. President. My delegation commends Mr. Nickolay Mladenov, Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process and Personal Representative of the Secretary- General, for his detailed briefing on the latest developments in the situation in the region, including the Palestinian question. cote d'Ivoire remains concerned about the ongoing stalemate in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. The hope created by the Oslo Accords has been eroded, giving way to radical rhetoric and its corollary of episodic violence that contributes only to the deterioration of the situation in Gaza and the West Bank.
