“Colombia advocates a comprehensive solution to the unstable situation in the region and the cessation of the threat or use of force and of terrorism. Given the upheaval in the region, my country approaches this issue comprehensively and with a commitment to the lofty goals of international peace and security, as we have demonstrated on the many occasions when we have fulfilled our responsibilities within various United Nations bodies. We therefore support the Organization's efforts aimed at achieving real progress towards Palestinian unity and peace in the region. We must also take advantage of this renewed momentum and the winds of change blowing in the region, so as to provide an effective solution to this long-standing situation. I resume my functions as President of the Council. I now give the floor to the representative of Jordan.”

“On the other hand, we regret that powerful existing tensions continue to cause civilian casualties, affecting the general population. We call on the parties to exercise restraint and do their utmost to bring to justice those responsible for those acts of destabilization. My delegation urges all parties to fulfil their obligations under international humanitarian law and to take all necessary measures to protect civilians, especially children, from direct and indirect violence. My delegation calls for the resumption of talks between the parties on the basis of mutual respect, recognition of the identity and rights of each people and the fulfilment of obligations under existing agreements recognized by both parties.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Colombia. My delegation thanks Mr. Lynn Pascoe, Under- Secretary-General for Political Affairs, for his detailed briefing on the situation in the Middle East, including the question of Palestine. This is the moment to reiterate that the search for a peaceful and fair settlement to the Israeli-Palestinian situation requires a resolution on all core issues of the dispute, including security, strengthening Palestinian institutions, the definition of borders and settlements in the occupied territories. We therefore welcome what has been expressed by the Quartet - that, if the Palestinian Authority continues its institution-building process, it will be in a position to establish a State in the near future.”
