“For example, the resolution makes no mention of the essential maritime component, and does not explicitly mention the intention of rehatting AMISOM. once conditions allow. We hope that these issues will be addressed through bilateral and multilateral support, including uncaveated contributions of support to the AMISOM. Trust Fund and in future resolutions. We look forward to the London conference to be held tomorrow, which we hope will garner a unified international response to the political, security and humanitarian challenges confronting Somalia. This should be an opportunity to consolidate existing measures and efforts to resolve the Somali crisis. We 12-23786 encourage greater strategic coherence between the United Nations and the African Union, in line with resolution 2033 (2012).”

“As the recent report of the Secretary-General states, the revised African Union- United Nations joint strategic concept of the for AMISOM. "represents the most pragmatic way forward, in view of the prevailing circumstances on the ground, even though confronted with risks and challenges" (S/2012/74, para. 43). We are therefore concerned that not all of the proposals of the Secretary-General and the African Union have been taken into account. Full support for the strategic concept is necessary to the effective implementation of AMISOM's operations. We also regret that the hurried manner in which the text of the resolution was negotiated has compelled us to adopt a resolution that does not take into account all of our concerns.”

“South Africa welcomes the adoption of resolution 2036 (2012) on enhancing the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM). The resolution comes at a critical stage when the Transitional Federal Government in Somalia continues to make significant progress in the implementation of the road map, as witnessed at the Garowe conferences. The security situation in Somalia has also witnessed a marked improvement, with AMISOM. patrolling almost 90 per cent of Mogadishu. Despite all the positive developments, we are not oblivious to the many challenges still besetting the country at the political, security and humanitarian levels. The resolution just adopted offers a significant improvement in the logistical support package provided to AMISOM. and increases the troop level from 12,000 to 17,731.”

“The international community has an important role to play in facilitating support and technical assistance through coordination by the United Nations. Such systemic interventions, managed in an integrated and coordinated manner, will constitute an investment in the long-term stability of the subregion. Finally, South Africa fully supports the draft presidential statement to be adopted later today.”

“Those challenges pose an obvious threat to international peace and security. The region has additional problems to contend with, such as increased criminal activity and armed clashes with security forces as a result of weapon trafficking from Libya, heightened radicalization and widening networks of terrorist groupings, such as Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb and Boko Haram. Clear political will exists among the States of the subregion to find common solutions to their common problems. Looking forward, we urge the United Nations system to address those challenges in a coherent and integrated manner, working in partnership with those countries and in accordance with their national and subregional structures.”

“However, literally overnight, the entire region was forced to deal with the consequences of the unfolding crisis in Libya, which brought with it an inflow of large numbers of returning jobless migrants and large quantities of weapons and ammunition. The effects of that disturbing combination manifested themselves in different forms in the different countries that comprise the Sahel. What started as a conflict in one country has now spilled over to become a regional problem with unprecedented consequences. The proliferation of arms brings to bear greater challenges on the Sahel region, of a greater magnitude, and for Governments that already have to deal with porous borders, trafficking in drugs and weapons, and the presence of armed groups and active terrorist groups.”

“In our View, that is a concrete example of an integrated and effective approach to fighting drug trafficking and organized crime. South Africa encourages the countries of the region to develop an integrated drug control strategy that addresses the capacities of countries to combat drug trafficking and organized crime. In that regard, the region needs a comprehensive and integrated approach that strengthens coordination among the countries of the region and countries of origin, transit and final destination. The Libyan crisis has injected new elements of instability in an already vulnerable area. There is no denying the fact that the Sahel region had its own set of challenges prior to the onset of the Libyan crisis.”

“In that regard, we welcome the initiative taken by UNODC to closely work with ECOWAS to develop a regional plan that includes aggressive measures to fight drug trafficking and organized crime in the region. South Africa is of the View that that intervention, coordinated with and integrated within the United Nations Office for West Africa (UNOWA), is in direct support to the implementation of the ECOWAS political declaration and its regional action plan on drug trafficking, organized crime and drug abuse. South Africa supports the close collaboration on security sector reform by the West Africa Coast Initiative with the Department for Political Affairs, UNOWA, the Department of Peacekeeping Operations and INTERPOL.”

“That progress is increasingly at risk from the threat posed by transnational organized crime, including with regard to illicit weapons, drug trafficking, maritime insecurity in the Gulf of Guinea and terrorism. Drug trafficking and organized crime have negative impacts on the security and stability of States. The international community, in collaboration with the countries of the region, should continue to support regional initiatives to fight the scourge of drug trafficking and organized crime. In that regard, we are of the view that the United Nations, the African Union and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) should coordinate their efforts to support the region and the countries of the Sahel to fight organized crime.”

“My delegation is pleased to see you, Mr. President, presiding over our meeting today. We welcome President Faure Essozimna Gnassingbe of Togo to the Council and are pleased that he has personally participated in this meeting. We congratulate Togo for organizing this debate on the impact of drug trafficking and organized crime in West Africa and the Sahel region. We thank the Secretary-General and the Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UN ODC) for their informative remarks. In recent years, West Africa has made significant progress towards security and development. The violent conflicts and election-related violence that devastated the region for many years have ended, and countries that were ravaged by conflicts are going through a post-conflict development phase.”

“In this regard, my delegation urges all parties to demonstrate cooperation and flexibility in finding solutions to these outstanding issues. Negotiations remain the only approach to producing reciprocally beneficial and sustainable solutions. Regarding the allegations of organ trafficking, we reiterate our position that a credible, thorough, impartial and independent inquiry into these allegations should be conducted. South Africa once more urges both sides to refrain from any action that could undermine the achievements attained in the dialogue process. We therefore call on the parties to exercise flexibility in order to enhance their engagement, resolve outstanding matters and ensure that reconciliation prevails.”

“My delegation is also concerned about the deterioration of inter-ethnic relations throughout Kosovo. Inter-ethnic trust remains vital. Public reconciliatory pronouncements from leaders on both sides are welcome, positive contributions towards reconciliation. We have noted with appreciation the commitment shown by the Kosovo Police in the fight against criminal activities, such as organized crime, human trafficking and drug trafficking. As a result, by and large there has been a reduction in common crime from the previous year. We would like to echo the concern expressed by the Secretary-General that "progress appears to be slowing on two major issues essential for reconciliation: voluntary returns of the displaced and determining the fate of missing persons" (S/2012/72, para. 55).”

“The recent discussions in Brussels have proven that, through dialogue, the parties are able to agree on a number of important issues, such as the management of crossing points. South Africa remains concerned, however, that since the previous reporting period, the situation has continued to be tense and potentially unstable, particularly in northern Kosovo. We condemn all forms of violence by all sides, including attacks on KFOR and EULEX. This violence threatens the peace and stability of the region. All parties should exercise restraint and refrain from the unnecessary use of force. Violence and the use of excessive force will only undermine the gains made by the parties in their dialogue processes, ultimately making reconciliation more difficult to achieve.”

“It is therefore incumbent on the international presences in Kosovo, including the Kosovo Force (KFOR) and the European Union Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo (EULEX), to maintain a status-neutral position in the execution of their mandates, in line with presidential statement S/PRST/2008/44, adopted by the Council in November 2008. South Africa supports the dialogue process facilitated by the European Union between the two sides, Pristina and Belgrade, as mandated by the General Assembly. We are pleased by the resumption of this dialogue and that the seventh and eighth rounds of negotiations took place in Brussels late last year. This regular direct contact between the parties is an important confidence-building measure that, we hope, will improve trust and allow the parties to address their outstanding and contentious issues.”

“South Africa would like to thank Assistant Secretary-General Edmond Mulet for his briefing today on the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK). We also welcome the participation of Special Representative of the Secretary-General Farid Zarif by video teleconference in this meeting today. We welcome Foreign Minister Jeremie back to the Council and thank him for his statement. We also welcome Mr. Hoxhaj and thank him for his statement. From the outset, my delegation reiterates its position that resolution 1244 (1999) remains in force and forms the basis for the resolution of the situation in Kosovo.”

“We are also satisfied that the final draft resolution (S/2012/77) was not aimed at imposing regime change on Syria, which would be against the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter. We sincerely hope that the Syrian Government and the opposition will continue to cooperate with the League of Arab States in its efforts to assist them to reach a peaceful political solution. We further call on the international community to render support to this process and refrain from actions and statements that may polarize the parties and delay, or even paralyse, the League ofArab States process. The current political environment in the Middle East, a region whose geopolitics cannot afford to have a weak or conflict-ridden Syria, warrants us to act responsibly in the interest of regional and international peace and security.”

“South Africa believes that the efforts of the League of Arab States, as the organization with knowledge of and proximity to the situation in Syria, should be supported and given the necessary political space to find a solution to the Syrian crisis. South Africa supports the efforts of the League of Arab States to facilitate the Syrian-led political process, as stated in the draft resolution. It is important that the Syrian people be allowed to decide their own fate, including their future leadership. Fundamentally, no foreign or external parties should interfere in Syria as its people engage in the critical decision-making process on the future of their country. Any solution must preserve the unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Syria.”

“We urge the parties to stop the violence immediately and commit themselves to finding a peaceful, political solution through a Syrian-led and owned, transparent and all- inclusive political process that will fulfil the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people. The political process will guarantee, among other things, the people's fundamental political rights and freedoms and restore their dignity through the delivery of democracy, political reform, justice, human rights and socio-economic development. We believe that such a solution will indeed ensure long-term peace and stability. We regret the slow progress in the implementation of the reforms already announced, and encourage the Syrian Government to implement these reforms expeditiously. We urge the opposition to commit to fully participating in the implementation of these reforms.”

“Let me start by congratulating you, Sir, and Togo on your assumption of the Council presidency for the month of February. Please be assured of South Africa's full support. The world is watching with great concern as the crisis in Syria unfolds and degenerates by the day, claiming civilian lives and injuring and displacing many people, including children. As we have said before, we remain deeply concerned about the deteriorating political, security, socio-economic and humanitarian situation in Syria. It continues to deteriorate despite calls from the international community on the Syrian Government and the armed opposition to stop the violence and settle their differences in a peaceful manner. We condemn the violent loss of life in Syria and call for maximum of restraint from all parties to the conflict.”

“Military intervention to resolve political conflicts, as we have seen in other parts of the world - most recently in the Libyan situation - has unintended consequences not only for the country in question but for the wider region. That is something the Middle East can ill afford. We welcome the consideration of the situation in Syria through draft resolutions before the Council. We call for all the commitments and principles expressed by the delegations of the Arab League and others today to be better and more fully expressed in future drafts. South Africa shall engage constructively in those negotiations. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I now give the floor to His Excellency Sheikh Hamad bin J assim bin J abr Al-Thani to make a further statement.”

“The critical question at this juncture is what positive contribution we can make as the international community, and the Security Council in particular, to assist the Syrian parties to resolve their conflict. Any action we take should be geared towards bringing the parties towards a peaceful resolution of their conflict rather than widening the gap between them. We therefore welcome the Arab League's and all diplomatic efforts aimed at resolving the crisis in the country, and we encourage Syrian parties to explore all opportunities to find a political solution. We must avoid any action that may run the risk of further polarizing the parties and lead to an escalation of the violence.”

“The report, which is a first-hand account of developments on the ground, provides us with an invaluable assessment of the situation. As noted in the report, Syrian citizens also believe that the crisis should be resolved peacefully, through Arab intervention alone and without international intervention, as it would allow them to live in peace and complete the reform process and bring about the change they desire. It is imperative that there be an end to violence from all sides, as it is apparent from the observer mission report that the opposition is also armed. Consequently, civilians bear the brunt of the violence perpetrated by the Government and armed opposition groups.”

“South Africa therefore welcomes this engagement by the Council with the League of Arab States, which, due to its proximity and knowledge of the region, is able to play a meaningful role in assisting the Syrian people to overcome their challenges. We hope that this engagement will lead to a peaceful political solution to the conflict in Syria. We strongly believe that any solution should respect the sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity of Syria, and at the same time uphold the purposes and principles enshrined in the United Nations Charter. We thank the Secretary-General of the Arab League for providing us with the report (S/2012/71, annex, enclosure 4) of the head of the League of Arab States observer mission to Syria, General Al-Dabi.”

“A comprehensive political solution must be found that will lead to political reform based on respect for democratic principles, rule of law, justice and human rights. It should also address the socio-economic development needs of the people of Syria in order to ensure long-term peace and stability. We appreciate the League of Arab States' efforts aimed at achieving a peaceful resolution of the crisis in Syria. On 12 January, the Council unanimously adopted resolution 2033 (2012), which focused attention on enhanced cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations in the maintenance of international peace and security.”

We reiterate that any solution to the Syrian crisis should be Syrian-led, based on genuine national dialogue, devoid of any form of intimidation and free of interference from outside. We urge the Syrian authorities to initiate an open, transparent and all-inclusive political process with its people to address their legitimate demands and in order to guarantee their fundamental political rights and freedoms, including their rights to freedom of assembly and speech. We also encourage the opposition to participate in this political process with a View to ensuring sustainable peace in Syria.”

We should avoid easy answers and claiming that the Sahel has always faced such challenges, when in actual fact it is well known that they were not previously of this magnitude. It is clear from the report that the joint collaborative efforts of the United Nations and the AU were well received by the leadership and peoples of the countries Visited by the assessment mission. South Africa has repeatedly emphasized the need for a strategic political process to resolve the crisis in Libya and beyond that would include the central role of the AU.”

“There is no denying the fact that the region has for some time had its own challenges, but the manner in which the outbreak of the conflict in Libya was approached further compounded the problems of the region. Of further concern to South Africa is the increase in criminal and terrorist activities in the region, as evidenced in the recent concentration of terrorist groups and extremists in the region. The amassing of arms and ammunition is a real concern in that regard and the heightened activities of groups such as Boko Haram are further testament to that. What started as a conflict in one country has now spilled over to become a regional problem with unprecedented consequences.”
