“Indeed, we are convinced that lifting the siege of Sarajevo is a first step towards the political settlement whose attainment the international community has been urging on the parties for over two years. In conclusion, my country supports and reiterates the urgent appeal to the parties that they should finally conform to the expectations and injunctions of the international community.”

“In the particularly critical situation we are experiencing, we nevertheless find some reason for hope; based on the essential fact that negotiations are taking place between the parties with the support of countries that are eager to contribute to a peaceful resolution of the crisis. The international community could no longer remain passive in the face of repeated massacres of innocent civilians, in flagrant violation of every decision taken by the United Nations. The measures contemplated by the European Union and NATO, in close cooperation and coordination with our Secretary-General, and under the authority of relevant resolutions of the Security Council, are designed to allow the conclusion of a cease-fire, leading to the1 demilitarization of Sarajevo and its being placed under international administration.”

“Finally, it provides the parties with a certain time for reflection and execution; by cooperating fully in implementing the measures called for, they can avoid the use of air force. However, only complete implementation of these measures will make it possible to avoid recourse to air power; the mere start of implementation or partial implementation will be insufficient. Indeed, it would show a lack of will by the parties definitively to renounce committing massacres of civilians, such as the one that occurred 5 February. We would also like to emphasize the primary importance we place on the security and freedom of movement of humanitarian and military personnel deployed by the United Nations on the territory of the former Yugoslavia.”

“In response to the letter of the United Nations Secretary- General, the Atlantic Council adopted on 9 February a decision making it possible for its members, acting in the framework of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and upon the request of the United Nations, to use air strikes to put an end to indiscriminate artillery fire and to contribute to the S/PV.3336 (Resumption 2) 180 demilitarization of Sarajevo. The legality of this decision under international law is indisputable. It is clearly in line with Security Council resolutions 824 (1993), 836 (1993) and 844 (1993). Furthermore, it treats all parties equally, because it addresses all heavy weapons, without distinction.”

“Mr. NOTERDAEME (Belgium) (interpretation from French): Allow me to congratulate you warmly, Sir, on presiding over the Security Council, and also to thank your predecessor, the Ambassador of the Czech Republic, for the fine work he did during the month of January. On Monday, 7 February 1994, the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the European Union expressed their indignation over particularly brutal bombardments that again struck the civilian population of Sarajevo, and supported the early convening of a meeting of the North Atlantic Council to use, in concert with the Secretary- General of the United Nations, all necessary means, including air power, to achieve the immediate lifting of the siege of Sarajevo.”

“On top of the barbaric acts that inevitably go with any civil war, there are massive numbers of organized, systematic rapes of women, particularly Musi.m women, in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We find that words cannot gxpress our indignation. The delegation of the European Community will go into the former Yugoslavia, particularly into Bosnia and Herzegovina, and strive to bring a definitive end to the monstrous conduct of the self-proclaimed Serb warriors. In that way it will prompt the reaction of men and women the world over for the restoration of the dignity of the victims of this unspeakable behaviour. The European Community deserves the immediate and unanimous support of our Council.”

“Mr. NOTERDAEME (Belgium) (interpretation from French): Belgium's term as a nou-permanent member of the Council is drawing to an end. During this period of almost 24 months, my delegation has had to consider many critical situations and numerous tragedies throughout the world. To be sure, the effects of violence and injustice cannot be compared: there is no scale on which to weigh blood and tears. None the less, the terrible events to which we are reacting today are, without any doubt, among the most odious we have ever had to face. The combination of brutality and methodical approach have given the actions of the Serb militias in Bosnia and Herzegovina an especially repugnant countenance. We thauoht wa had reached the limits af azyrors in thie horrihle civil wart hut we were wrong.”

“To achieve this, the necessary means must be provided; these should, nevertheless, :.emain commensurate with the goals our Organization has set itself. The operation must also be given enough time to achieve these goals. Second, the draft resolution makes it quite clear that che operation in Somalia will be under the political control of the United Nations. The coordinating machinery to be set up between the States participating in the Operation and the Secretary-General, and the decision-making powers granted to the Council concerning the duration of the operation, are, in my delegation's Opinion, key elements in this draft resolution.”

“Nevertheless, in view of the arguments adduced by the Secretary-Genoral, Belgium can go along with the fourth option, which would be an enforcement operation undertaken by a group of Member States aud duly authorized by the Council. We were particularly pleased to concur with thie since we find in the draft resolution a number of elements on which e are particularly keon and which significantly narrow the distance between the two options I have just mentioned. First, the purpose of the operation is clearly a humanitars one: in the short term, its purpose is to ensure that assistance is distributed safely and effectively and, in the longer term, to promote national reconciliation and reconstruction in Somalia.”

“We must therefore make a fresh start in meeting the humanitarian challenge in Somalia by taking into account the atypical situation there: it 4s a country without a government, without an administration, with no source of authority, where factions and yangs hold sway. The Secretary-General has submitted some innovative proposals to the Council in the draft resolution before us, and Belgium wishes to place on record its agreement with those proposals, Of course, Belgium would have preferred this to be a purely United Nations operation, as in the fifth option proposed by the Secretary-General in his letter to the Council (S/24863).”

“Warlords, bandits and unscrupulous traders are in effect preventing humanitarian assistance reaching those that need it. Despite the devotion of the humanitarian aid workers and the patience shown by the representatives of the United Nations, this aberrant and irresponsible behaviour has gradually become an Jusurmountable obstacle. it has gone on far tco long. What is now at stake ia the very survival of the Somali people. My delegation, which has been waiting for the green light from the Secretary-General cor some weeks now for it to participate in the United Nations Operation in Somalia, is in a good position to note that the approach adopted so far by the international community, and by ovr Council in particular, has proved ineffective. In this respect, Belgium has come to the same conclusion as the Secretary-General.”

“Mr. NOTERDAEME (Belgium) (interpretation from French): First of all, allow me, Sir, to extend to you my congratulations on your taking up the presidency of the Council for the month of December. My delegation is encouraged to know that, during its last month as a Council member, our work will be guid..d by a wise and effective President. I should also like to thank your predecessor, Ambassador Erdes, for the way in which he steered our work during a busy and difficult month. For many long months now, we have become sadly used to receiving tragic uews from Somalia. But this tragedy has become intolerable now that it has become evident that, despite the efforts of the international community, destitution and famine continue to prevail in that country.”

“In that connection, the various reports of the Special Rapporteur of the Commission on Human Rights, Mr. Max van der Stoel, seem to me to be quite compelling. The decisions presented by the Iraqi authorities as gestures of good will were certainly noted by the Belgian Government. These reactions, however, have been countered by other measures or statements that indicate to us that the regime in Baghdad still refuses to accept some of the essential provisions adopted by the Security Council following the invasion of Kuwait. We hope that today's dabate will make it possible to expedite the implementation by Iraq of the relevant decisions of the Security Council within the framework of a dialogue that is free of ambiguity.”

“President, I do not wish here to repeat ali the Iraqi violatious of its obligations under resolution 687 (1991) and of subsequent resolutions of the Council. This lengthy litany has just been the subject of your preliminary introduction, and my country fully subscribes to it. However, I should like to emphasize that Kuwait's desire to continues to enjoy our vigilance is completely justified, We must take advantage of the presence here in New York of the Deputy Prime Minister of Irag to remind him also of our concerns regarding the unacceptable treatment of the Iraqi population. Indeed, the Iraqi refusal to implement resolutions 706 (1991) and 712 (1991) aggravates a domestic situation that ig difficult in all areas and even tragic for certain segments of Iragi society.”

“The United Nations compensation Commission, set up under resolution 692 (1991), although it has already done excellent work, is still not ina position to provide for the compensation of all victims, Kuwaiti and foreign, of this war, in view of the continuing refusal by Iraq to comply with resolution 706 (1991) and 712 (1991). The repatriation of Kuwaiti detainees has not yet Sson completed, and the restitution by Iraq of Kuwaiti property is being carried out in a far from convincing manner. Finally, the work of the Irag-Kuwait Boundary Demarcation Commission does not enjoy the effective support of Irag, which cannot but create deep concern both in Kuwait and in the international community. In that respect, my delegation deplores the absence of an unequivocal repudiation by Iraq of ali 4ts previous claims on Kuwait. Mr.”

“Mr, NOTERDAEME (Belgium) (interpretation from French): Faced with the iavasion of Kuwait by Iraq in August 1990 and the indisputable threat which it constituted to international peace and security, the Security Council, in the name of the entire international community, adopted the necessary measures. Those measures led, almost two years ago now, to the liberation of Kuwait. That country has now embarked on the difficult task of reversing the consequences of a war and of an occupation that were as brief as they were destructive. In this still very difficult stage of reconstruction, Kuwait, however, does not even have the gzatisfaction of seeing Iraq comply with its obligations to it under the relevant resolutions of the Security Council.”

“The Twelve have repeatedly urged all the parties involved to show moderation. Once Serbia has done so - and we know that the Yugoslav Prime Minister, Mr. Panic, is working in that direction - the situation will be such that the international status of the new Yugoslavia can be normalized and the sanctions system imposed by the Council can be reviewed. There will be important elections in Yugoslavia on 20 December. The Beigian Government hopes the preparations for those elections can take place in a context of respect for freedom of opinion and information, and that the voting will be conducted impartially.”

“The draft resolution the Council will soon adopt, in the negotiation of which my delegation was an active participant, is aimed at facilitating, we hope, the achievement of those two objectives, through, among other things, the imposition of stricter measures for monitoring the embargo. By adopting the draft resolution, the Council will be appealing urgently to the authorities in Serbia and Montenegro. We expect them to show they are exercising a moderating influence on Serbian populations outside Serbia and in particular on Mr. Karadzic. We also expect the Belgrade authorities to work to guarantee respect for the rights of their ethnic minorities in the framework of an autonomy acceptable to all. £f am thinking in particular of the dangerous situation in Kosovo.”

“(824621, annex) In this connection, I wish to pay a tribute to the courageous work of the Special Rapporteur of the Commission on Human Rights, Mr. Mazowiecki, whose testimony the Council heard this morning. How can we halt the cycle of horror that Bosnia is facing? I believe we must devote our attention to two urgent objectives. The first is the establishment of s cease-fire in Sarajevo and throughout Bosnian territory. We have high hopes for the work of the Mixed Military Working Group, but we must not neglect the need for timely partial measures such as the no-fly zone over Bosnia enacted in resulution 781 (1992) and the supervision of heavy weapons. The second element relates to the negotiations on a draft constitution. In this regard, the pesasverance of the co-Chairmen of the International Confrence and of Hr.”

“As we approach the end of this cantury, a time when Europe believed it had for ever turned its back on inhuman practices of war and atrocities, it seems to us essential no longer to tolerate large-scale war crimes in che former Yugoslavia. The establishment, by resolution 780 (1992), of a war-crimes Commission is an important step towards identifying and punishing the guilty, so as clearly to demonstrate that it will no longer be possibile anonymously to violate human rights conventions. On 5 October 1992 in Luxembourg, the European Community and its member States stated that "The perpetraters of mass killings and other grave breaches of international humanitarian law will be hald individually responsible for their actions and the Community and its member States will cooperate with the United Nations ... in ensuring that justice is done".”

“I must commend here the outstanding efforts made by Mrs, Ogata, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. Faced with the desperate situation of civilian populations, the European Community and its member States decided at their Summit in Birmingham on 16 October 1992 to speed Community assistance by immediately releasing 213 million ECU. My Government has also deemed it necessary to contribute to these efforts by backing the establishment of a refugee camp in Savudrija, Croatia. Moreover, all the communities of Belgium are engaged in broad solidarity activicies to help communities in the former Yugoslavia sorely tried by the civil war and overwhelmed by the influx of thousands of refugees.”

“Since the outbreak of the crisis Belgium has followed developments very closely and has tried to contribute towards their solution, first through the diplomatic efforts of the European Community and its member States and thea through the work of the International Conference on the Former Yugoslavia, not to mention the efforts made by our Security Council. Three aspects of the current conflict seem to me to be central: humanitarian problems, in the broed sense; the future of Bosnia and Herzegovina; and the behaviour of Serbia and Montenegro. The unimpeded provision of humanitarian assistance constitutes at this stage one of the prime objectives of the efforts to restore peace and security in the region. It is thus essential that this assistance from the international community should be able to reach those for whom it is intended.”

“Sommaruga, who said that the most elementary principles of international humanitarian law continue to be disregarded on the territory of the former Yugoslavia, and that the consequences of this are incalculable. In the wake of resolution 771 (1992), our Council has thus sent an even clearer signal to the perpetrators of these violations of humanitarian law. The establishment of a Commission makes this afqnal more credible by masking more operational the principle contained in the Geneva Conventions regarding the personal responsibility of war criminals. It is the desire of the Eelgian authorities that our Organization, upon receipt of the conclusions of this Conmission and of the recommendations of the Secretary-General, should be able to provide itself with the means to punish the perpetrators who will have been so identified.”

“We are thinking of two measures to which the Council should give thought in the very near future: firstly, there is, in our opinion, a need to ban military flights over Bosnia territory - and I must just point out that the parties to the London Conference have undertaken to impiement just such a cessation of military flights. I think that the Council will have to take steps in this direction very shortly. Secondly, we believe ~ and this is already clear from the report of the Secretary-General (S/24540) - that it will be essential for UNPROFOR to take steps at the appropriate time to supervise the heavy weaponry of the parties to the conflict very closely.”

I should also like to take this opportunity to tell Ambassador Li Daoyu that were are very grateful to him for the way in which he conducted the business of the Couzcil last month.

“We therefore completely support the draft resolution that the Council will soon be adopting, and we appeal to the PDK to cooperate fully with UNTAC's implementation activities. This is all the more urgent and necessary in that the Paris Agreements remain the only way for Cambodia to leave behind once and for all one of the grimmest chapters in its history. For Belgiun, which was among the first to denounce in the United Nations the practices of the recent past in Cambodia, this objective is essential and deserves our complete support.”

“Belgium deplores this behaviour on the part of the PDK, the main effect of which is that barely 5 per cent of the 200,000 troops scheduled for cantonment could be reestablished in the cantonment areas as of 11 July. Lastly, we note that the PDK has also failed to fulfil other obligations stipulated in the Agreements. I refer to its refusal to grant UNTAC free and unrestricted access to the areas placed under its control and to its violations of the cease-fire. Belgium unreservedly supports the approach taken by the Secretary-General, which consists of pursuing the process so that the international community can thus clearly demonstrate its determination to help the Cambodian people, in spite of the lack of cooperation on the part of the PDK.”

My delegation has noted with growing concern the delays in the implementation of the second phase of the cease-fire, especially as regards the regrouping and cantonment of the armed forces of the four Cambodian parties. It has also noted that these delays are essentially attributable to the refusal of the Party of Democratic Kampuchea (PDK) to comply with the Agreements.”

“At the request of the parties the international community could be of assistance. Austria has already called for an impartial inquiry regarding the recent violence and for bringing the perpetrators to justice. This would go a long way towards creating a climate of confidence in South Africa. I started my intervention by referring to the importance attached to the Council's consideration of the question of South Africa. Let me conclude by saying that the fact that the Council has been seized of this matter testifies to the growing belief that, as the Secretary-General put it in his seminal report "An Agenda for Peace", our aim must be to address the deepest causes of conflict: economic despair, social injustice and political oppression.”

“At the outset I spoke of recent positive changes in South Africa. Alas, there has also been a wave of violence, culminating in the Boipatong massacre. We share in the grief of the bereaved and are deeply concerned by the massacre's consequences. Among other causes, this violence has its roots in a highly fragmented political and social system which makes the emergence of a political culture of tolerance and mutual accommodation very difficult. In addition, there is a lack of respect for and credibility of the administrative and judicial authorities. There is no way around the primary responsibility of the South African Government to protect the life and property of every South African. The National Peace Accord adopted last year to bring an end to the wave of violence has so far not yielded the expected results.”

“But we refuse to accept that this tragedy can bring to grief the entire process of democratization. It is for the South Africans themselves to shape their country, their society and their institutions. A new constitution should contain checks and balances, may well decentralize power and may well secure fair representation of all sectors of society. In the meantime, at the request of the parties concerned, the international community can and should play a role in encouraging and Supporting the process of change in South Africa. That is why our debate in this Council is important and why our decisions are important. That is also why Austria supports the idea of giving the Secretary-General a mandate to use his good offices towards creating conditions conducive to further progress.”

“Mr. NOTERDAEME (Belgium) (interpretation from French): Our chance today to discuss the situation in South Africa comes at a critical moment in the history of that country. Along with the rest of the international community, Belgium had pinned its hopes on the process of democratization begun by CODESA. At the forty~sixth session of the General Assembly, those hopes were expressed in the adoption of a resolution on the situation in South Africa that seemed to us to do justice to the desire for peace and reform felt by the country's leading political forces. The resurgence of blind violence has thrown these developments radically off course. Belgium immediately voiced its great consternation at the events in Boipatong, and its sadness at the number of innocent victims in that massacre.”
