  1. I should not like to conclude without expressing our gratitude for the work carried out by the international observers of the "Troika" to promote the peace process, and we encourage them to continue their search for a peaceful solution to the conflict. We are also grateful for the efforts of the countries members of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) and the constant dedication and determination of the personnel of the United Nations Angola Verification Mission II (UNAVEM II). My Government wishes to pay a special tribute to Miss Margaret Anstee for her invaluable work in the cause of peace in Angola, and we also express our support for the new Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Mr. Alioune Blondin Beye, who we are sure will continue the efforts to achieve peace and stability in Angola.

  2. It is Venezuela's hope that these will form a common ground between the parties, and that UNITA will refrain from any action that is not in accordance with the principles set forth in the Bicesse Peace Accords. The present situation justifies the Council's beginning to consider the possibility of imposing more effective measures on UNITA, including an embargo on the sale and supply of arms and on all types of military assistance unless the Secretary-General, as indicated in the draft resolution, informs us by 15 September that an effective cease-fire and the full implementation of the "Acordos de Paz" have been achieved. We trust that this new extension will give time for new ideas and actions towards achieving a lasting political solution.

  3. It is essential for the talks to resume, and accordingly my delegation appeals to the parties, and in particular to UNITA, to resume, without delay, the peace talks under United Nations auspices with a view to achieving an immediate cease-fire throughout the country and the full implementation of the "Acordos de Paz". Venezuela also condemns all UNITA's military actions and appeals to it to abandon the use of force, which has caused Angola and its people so much harm, and to abide by the norms of international humanitarian law. One of the merits of democracy and its institutions is precisely coexistence, participation and cooperation between parties, even though their opinions diverge. The only necessary ingredient is the parties' political will to achieve stability, development and the well-being of the country and its people.

  4. Nevertheless, today the Security Council must once again renew UNAVEM's mandate for two months so that the United Nations can take vigorous action and achieve a peace agreement, as recommended by the Secretary-General in his last report. For Venezuela, UNITA's persistent refusal to accept the results of the elections, its launching armed attacks against the defenceless population and against democratically elected institutions and its renewed efforts to seize more territory are cause for deep concern. These actions have been vigorously condemned by the Council in many resolutions. The humanitarian conse yuences of the hostilities and the suffering they have caused the civilian population are aggravating the situation, which is already catastrophic.

  5. Miss TRUJILLO (Venezuela) (interpretation from Spanish): At the outset, on behalf of my delegation I wish to congratulate you, Sir, on your assumption of the presidency this month. We are confident that with your great intelligence and diplomatic skill you will lead us along the right path. I wish also to congratulate the Permanent Representative of Spain, Ambassador Yanhez-Barnuevo, and the members of his delegation, for the excellent work done last month. The delegation of Venezuela wishes to express its satisfaction that at this meeting of the Council we have the presence and the participation of the Foreign Ministers of Angola, Zimbabwe and Namibia, on a subject on which the international community harboured great hopes for the achievement of peace and stability in Angola when the elections were held in September 1992.
