  1. “The country's problems have deep roots in political and social and economic matters that go beyond security issues. We cannot simply limit ourselves to seeking solutions from a military viewpoint. We believe that the international community must continue to support Haiti with the prompt release of financial resources and sustained interest in the economic, social and institutional reconstruction of the country. Renewed international assistance efforts should focus on strengthening basic areas such as the judiciary and the police, as well as development activities with respect to infrastructure so as to create better conditions for sustainable development and to foster job creation. The international community, in dialogue with the Haitian Government, must elaborate proposals for the future scope of the MINUSTAH mandate.”

  2. “My country reiterates its firm commitment to the efforts of the United Nations to promote stabilization and reconstruction in Haiti. I would like to express our satisfaction at Mr. Preval's visit to Brazil on 9 and 10 March, during which he met with President Lula and the Minister for Foreign Affairs, and which was followed by visits to Chile and Argentina. We also consider more recent developments towards closer relations between Haiti and CARICOM. to be very positive and an important signal that Haiti is rejoining the Caribbean family and, more broadly, the Latin American family. The presence here today of several Ministers and Deputy Ministers of the region bears witness to these closer relations. The future of Haiti is a vital challenge for the United Nations.”

  3. “We welcome the adoption of the electoral calendar for the second round of parliamentary and local elections, and we hope that this can take place in a climate of transparency and stability. The election of a Haitian parliament that is representative and democratic will complete the electoral process, which lies at the heart of the mandate of MINUSTAH. Brazil would like to encourage the new Government to promote an inclusive and constructive political dialogue among all Haitians, which would make it possible to improve governance and create the proper conditions for new efforts to promote economic development and social justice. This is the pact of governance referred to by President Preval in his statement today.”

  4. “Mr. Patriota (Brazil) (spoke in Spanish): First of all, Sir, I would like to convey to you and to the Argentine delegation the heartfelt congratulations of Minister Celso Amorim on your excellent work as Security Council President and to welcome your decision to convene this open debate on Haiti. The presence of the President-elect, Rene Preval, takes on special importance at today's meeting. I would also like to convey the condolences of the Brazilian Government over the untimely death of Ambassador Fenelon of Haiti yesterday in Brasilia. We are meeting against the backdrop of the success of the electoral process in Haiti. The large turnout at the presidential elections in February has conveyed to us a message of hope and shows that a democratic Haiti is clearly possible.”

  5. “As a parallel endeavour, and guided by the same overall objectives of today's discussion, we have been encouraging expansion of the membership of the Special Committee on Peace-keeping Operations. We remain ready to work with Member States, as well as with the appropriate United Nations organs and the Secretariat, in seeking the best solutions to enhance actions taken under the Charter to further international peace and security.”

  6. “The monthly tentative forecast of work of the Council should include an indication of the expected schedule of such meetings. The support of the Secretariat in the meetings of the mechanism will be of fundamental importance. These meetings should be announced in the Journal of the United Nations. The agenda, as well as any relevant information to help troop contributors consider issues under deliberation, should be provided by the Secretariat prior to the meetings. The meetings arranged by the Secretariat to inform troop contributors on issues related to peace-keeping operations should, in view of their different nature, continue to be held as they are today. In various United Nations forums, we have been involved in discussions on the issue with a view to strengthening the Organization's role in this field.”

  7. “Each consultation meeting should be held well in advance of anticipated Security Council decisions on the extension, modification or termination of the mandate of specific peace-keeping operations. In the establishment of a new peace-keeping operation, the mechanism should allow for consultations with potential troop contributors. Special meetings of the mechanism should be convened in the event of unforeseen developments regarding particular peace- keeping operations that require action by the Council. In our view, the mechanism for consultations should be chaired by a member of the Security Council for a one- year term. This member could be assisted by other members, as appropriate. The chairman would report to the Council the views expressed by participants in the meetings.”

  8. “In this context, the need for adequate procedures for ensuring the necessary cohesion among troop contributors, Security Council members and the Secretariat cannot be overemphasized. A Security Council presidential statement issued on 4 November 1994 established the basis for an informal mechanism that has represented a first step in the right direction. The statement itself, however, had the wisdom of recognizing that the arrangements proposed therein should be reviewed in the light of experience. After one year, we feel that the time has come to look at ways to improve the efficiency of these consultations and to fit them into a more predictable framework. Some measures that have been suggested in this regard deserve serious consideration. A more formal and institutionalized mechanism of consultations is needed.”

  9. “We endorse the statement by Argentina, and we would like to stress some of the elements that we feel are essential in the handling of the subject. With the recent increase in the number of peace- keeping operations and their growing complexity, the United Nations has had to face new challenges, with varying degrees of success. On several occasions the Organization has had to recognize its limitations, while on others it has been able to deal creatively with the problems it encountered. In any event, the experience gained in living through difficult situations represents an important asset for facing the uncertainties of the future in the realm of peace- keeping.”

  10. “I should also like to express our recognition of the role of Ambassador Keating of New Zealand in the launching of this initiative. This formal session was organized in response to a request made by 34 Member States in a letter addressed to His Excellency the President of the Security Council. In his statement this morning, the Permanent Representative of Argentina named the countries that have been discussing possible ways for improving the coordination between the Security Council and troop- contributing countries. These countries have reached a general view on what is considered desirable and feasible at this stage in order to foster closer and more focused cooperation between those involved in peace-keeping missions around the world.”

  11. “First of all, I would like to welcome this opportunity to discuss in a formal meeting of the Security Council the relationship between troop- contributing countries and Security Council members. It is with great satisfaction that we participate in a public debate on an issue of such interest to the membership at large, and we hope that the views and suggestions expressed today will be duly recorded and acted upon. We are convinced that under your able guidance, Sir, we will have the possibility of a fruitful deliberation on this item. I want to express my appreciation to the Permanent Representative of Argentina, Ambassador Cerdenas, for his active role in bringing about today's debate and his initiative as a whole.”
