  4. “India has extended development assistance and human resource development support to Syria through grants and lines of credit for development projects, medicine and food supplies, artificial-limb fitment camps and capacity-building training programmes. We intend to stay the course, and India reiterates its steadfast commitment to continuing its support to the people of Syria. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I give the floor to the representative of the Syrian Arab Republic.”

  5. “There is an urgent need to increase humanitarian assistance to all Syrians throughout the country, without discrimination, politicization or any preconditions. What we need immediately is an active engagement that is consistent with Syrian independence and territorial integrity and addresses the urgency of the humanitarian issues in order to alleviate the suffering of the Syrian people. There is also an urgent need for concrete steps to address the hurdles that are obstructing the functioning of both cross-border and cross-line operations, in particular in north-west Syria. The adoption of resolution 2585 (2021) provides another opportunity to strengthen humanitarian assistance, especially cross-line delivery of aid. We hope that will strengthen further in the coming months.”

  6. “India firmly believes that long-term security and stability in that region can be achieved only by preserving the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Syria. We remain convinced that there can be no military solution to the Syrian conflict and reaffirm our commitment to advancing a Syrian-led and -owned United Nations-facilitated political process in line with resolution 2254 (2015). The briefing by Under-Secretary-General Martin Griffiths once again highlighted the grim humanitarian situation in the country. The Syrian people have suffered relentless violence and terror for more than a decade now. The economic situation has deteriorated further in recent months. Syrian women, children and elderly persons have been impacted in disproportionate ways. The pandemic has only made the situation worse.”

  7. “The groups designated as terrorist groups by the Security Council, such as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham, have continued to gain in strength in Syria and their activities are mentioned in the Secretary-General’s report. ISIL has continued to launch attacks in areas across Deir ez-Zor, Hasakah and eastern rural Homs. ISIL has also targeted energy infrastructure in some instances. Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham continues to have a dominating influence in Idlib. That is a cause for serious concern. It is imperative that all parties adhere to their international obligations to fight terrorism and terrorist organizations in Syria, as designated by the Security Council.”

  8. “We welcome the recent meetings involving the Astana guarantors and the Special Envoy’s interactions in that regard. We are concerned about the security situation in Syria, particularly in Dara’a, the north-east and the north-west. As mentioned in the Secretary-General’s report (S/2021/735), military activity and hostilities have increased in recent months, seriously affecting the civilian population. The recent fighting in Dara’a reflects the fragile nature of the situation. We believe that a nationwide comprehensive ceasefire is paramount to the interests of the Syrian people. We have been referring to the involvement of external actors in Syria and its impact on the growth of terrorism, both in Syria and in the region.”

  9. “We hope that the Special Envoy’s recent engagements, including his visit to Moscow, will help in convening the sixth meeting of the small body of the Constitutional Committee soon. An agreement among the three parties on the terms of reference and core rules of procedure for the sixth meeting would positively contribute to the process. We believe that all major stakeholders need to engage in a constructive dialogue for the United Nations- led political track to move forward. The adoption of resolution 2585 (2021) last month proved that sincere efforts on behalf of all stakeholders can lead to positive outcomes. We call on the regional and international interlocutors to extend their full support to the Special Envoy in his efforts to take the political track forward.”

  10. “I will now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of India. I join other speakers in thanking Special Envoy Geir Pedersen and Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Martin Griffiths for their briefings. I also thank Mr. Khaled Erksoussi, Secretary General of the Syrian Arab Red Crescent, for his insights. The Special Envoy’s efforts to end the stalemate concerning the work of the Constitutional Committee has not yet yielded positive results. The small body of the Constitutional Committee has not met since January. The Constitutional Committee has an onerous task of preparing and drafting the constitutional reform for popular approval, which will contribute to the political settlement in Syria and the implementation of resolution 2254 (2015).”

  11. “I wish to draw the attention of Council members to document S/2021/735, which contains the report of the Secretary-General on the implementation of Security Council resolutions 2139 (2014), 2165 (2014), 2191 (2014), 2258 (2015), 2332 (2016), 2393 (2017), 2401 (2018), 2449 (2018), 2504 (2020), 2533 (2020) and 2585 (2021).
