1. “The mechanism thus deters those engaged in sanctions busting and at the same time serves as an early warning instrument against disproportional collateral damage. In this regard, sanctions - meaning measures to be taken against sanction-busting States or individuals- deserve more attention. Here, we see more room for further deliberations. On the other hand, the Security Council also has a responsibility under human rights aspects. Therefore, exemptions and exceptions for certain humanitarian needs should be carefully taken into consideration in order to minimize the humanitarian impact. In doing this, the credibility and legitimacy of a United Nations sanctions regime would be even greater.”

2. “As State Secretary Dahlgren has pointed out, the Stockholm Process focused, inter alia, on identifying measures to enhance planning, monitoring and coordination among sanctions committees and monitoring bodies. The development of monitoring mechanisms, with a view to increasing transparency and efficiency, is indeed key to the success of any sanctions regime. The mechanism can furnish the sanctions committee with additional information about the violations of sanctions, as well as their direct and collateral impact. As former chairman of the UNITA sanctions Committee, Ambassador Ryan recently pointed out that its very existence sent a strong warning that the Committee had an additional arm that would systematically and constantly monitor sanctions violations and the violators.”

3. “I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Germany. The excellent briefing by State Secretary Dahlgren on the results of the Stockholm Process, the comprehensive statement by Assistant Secretary- General Turk and the ensuing interventions of Council members have, in our view, achieved two important goals. First, they have contributed to a more transparent discussion within the Security Council on pressing sanctions issues. Secondly, they have highlighted the important input by the Stockholm Process to the debate on how to strengthen the capacity of the United Nations system and of Member States to implement targeted sanctions.”

First, we shall hold this meeting, which will include a question-and-answer session. Because our Japanese colleague has come from Tokyo to provide us with information, I think the Council should have an opportunity to engage in dialogue with him and the other briefers after the briefing. Following that, the Council will hold a private meeting, because I understand that one of the briefers has a confidential document, which will be distributed and discussed then. If that is agreeable to the Council, we shall so proceed. Adoption of the agenda The agenda was adopted.”

Not all of them, I understand, are in the Council Chamber right now. We are faced now with the situation where either we could go on and hear the remaining speakers on the list - which might take until 1.30 p.m. if everybody sticks to seven minutes - or we might end up with three or four speakers not having had the opportunity to take the floor. We would then have to reconvene at 3 p.m. My suggestion is that we try to finish now. This is also a matter of courtesy for the last speakers, because if there are only three or four speakers left for the afternoon session, then most probably they will not get the same audience as they would have here now.”
