  1. “We also recognize the important role played by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the Kosovo Force and the European Union Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo. Moreover, we would like to highlight the substantial contribution of the United Nations agencies present on the ground.”

  2. “In that regard, we note with satisfaction the fact that the Kosovo authorities endorsed a concept document on the regulation of displaced persons and durable solutions. The document points to the need to establish a legal foundation to ensure accountability of the authorities and to define institutional mechanisms that would then facilitate the return of families and internally displaced persons in safe and sustainable conditions. Another important aspect highlighted in the report of the Secretary-General is the phenomenon of migration through the region towards Europe. In that connection, we believe that regional cooperation focused on a human rights approach is fundamental. I wish to conclude by reiterating the fact that Uruguay very much values the role played by UNMIK in promoting security, stability and respect for human rights.”

  3. “We are particularly pleased to note the holding of a working session of the Joint Working Group on Missing Persons, in which the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) participated and at which Belgrade and Pristina agreed to increase their exchanges of information on specific cases. We believe that those steps, in addition to providing consolation to the families of the disappeared and healing the wounds of the past, are acts of justice that are important strides towards reconciliation. My country is also concerned about the situation of the internally displaced. The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees estimates that the total number of internally displaced persons in Kosovo at the end of June 2016 stood at 16,714.”

  4. “We are discouraged by the lack of significant progress with regard to the practical implementation of the agreements reached within the context of the dialogue process undertaken between Belgrade and Pristina facilitated by the European Union. We urge all parties to step up the dialogue so as to reach compromise and make progress along the path towards stability and development. Uruguay attaches the greatest importance to full respect for human rights. We understand that in the case of Kosovo what is of particular importance are the efforts undertaken on the issue of persons who disappeared in the recent conflict.”

  5. “We are encouraged to hear that the political conditions in Kosovo are improving to some extent, as indicated in the most recent report (S/2016/666) of the Secretary-General and as just mentioned by Special Representative Tanin. Nevertheless, the challenges on the security front continue to be significant. There has been tension, attacks and other alarming incidents, including - and I would like to highlight this point - on members of the minority communities, many of them Kosovar Serbs. Uruguay regrets the occurrence of those incidents, expresses its firm rejection of the use of violence and encourages all efforts to find a way to promote peaceful and inclusive dialogue in order to make progress towards resolving the problems of Kosovo.”

  6. “Mrs. Nufiez (Uruguay) (spoke in Spanish): At the outset, I would like to thank Mr. Zahir Tanin, Special Representative of the Secretary-General and Head of the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) for his briefing. I would also like to welcome and express my gratitude for the statement by Mr. Ivica Dacie, First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Serbia. We have also paied close attention to the statement by Ms. Vlora Citaku. First, as we have said in previous statements, Uruguay believes that resolution 1244 (1999) is the internationally accepted legal basis for resolving the situation in Kosovo, which includes full respect for the principles of the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Serbia.”
