  1. “Two important portfolios in the new Government, as Mr. Toure mentioned, namely, the Minister for the Interior and the Minister for Foreign Affairs, are yet to be filled. Furthermore, the programme and budget of the Government need to sail through the National Assembly in due time. I thank the Council for this opportunity and for its continued attention to the people of Guinea-Bissau.”

  2. “We therefore encourage all national political actors to exercise restraint, uphold the rule of law and engage in a constructive dialogue to resolve their differences, safeguard peace and stability and foster socioeconomic development, with a view to alleviating the suffering ofthe people of Guinea-Bissau. Lastly, I would like to highlight the excellent level of coordination and collaboration among ECOWAS, the CPLP, the European Union, the United Nations and the African Union, as well as the role they have been playing to address the crisis in Guinea-Bissau. I look forward to working in the same spirit. Similarly, I would like to urge the CPLP and ECOWAS to convene an International Contact Group meeting on Guinea- Bissau to contribute to a resolution of the crisis. We still have a long way to go.”

  3. “The African Union stands ready to provide any assistance, in coordination with other partners, to ensure the success of the visit. The crisis in Guinea-Bissau has long undermined peace and stability. The general tensions in the ruling party - the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cabo Verde - and the divisions among political actors are the causes for the political and institutional crisis, which needs to be addressed with a compressive approach. It is our conviction that only a genuine and inclusive dialogue, based on respect for the country's Constitution and its laws, will lead to a resolution of the crisis.”

  4. “We should recognize the critical importance of the role played by the Economic Community of West African States Mission in Guinea- Bissau (ECOMIB), and welcome the decision taken by the Heads of State ofthe Economic Community ofWest African States (ECOWAS), who recently held a Summit in Dakar on 4 June to extend the mandate of ECOMIB for another year, which we believe will further stabilize the country. In that regard, we urge the defence and security forces of Guinea-Bissau to better collaborate and coordinate with ECOMIB. In addition, we stress the importance of the ECOWAS high-level mission made up of three heads of State, which will go to Guinea-Bissau to engage in a dialogue with national political stakeholders with a view to encourage dialogue and find a lasting political solution to the continuing political crisis.”

  5. “I thank you, Sir, for this opportunity to brief the Council on the political and security situation in Guinea-Bissau. (spoke in English) I fully concur with the statement made by the Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Mr. Modibo Toure. Allow me to add some points. The security situation in Guinea-Bissau remains calm and the military has so far kept out ofpolitics. It is, however, questionable how long it can remain politically neutral, considering the fragile political situation. On top of that, the security sector reform process has stalled due to a lack of funding, as has the justice and public adminstration reform.”
