  11. We were glad to hear this position reiterated by the representative of Libya tonight. We strongly call upon the Libyan Government to ensure promptly the appearance of the two accused in the Netherlands for the purpose of trial. In so doing, Libya would fulfil its own promises. Moreover, this is the way for Libya to achieve suspension and the lifting of the sanctions, which would bring an end to the unnecessary suffering of its people. Finally, I wish to emphasize that the draft resolution proposed for action tonight represents an important contribution to the work of the Security Council. It provides an example of a wise decision, opening up new opportunities for the resolution of several problems on the Council's agenda. The Council should be able to act with the same wisdom whenever required.

  12. In addition, the draft resolution requests the Secretary-General to assume a pivotal role in assisting in the arrangements for the safe transfer of the two accused, as well as to nominate international observers to attend the trial. The initiative presented to the Security Council has been meticulously elaborated. We are confident that it provides for a fair and impartial trial, with all the necessary guarantees. It also renews and strengthens the prospect of the suspension and, ultimately, lifting of the sanctions imposed against Libya. It is now up to the Libyan side to seize this opportunity and do its part for the success of this initiative. We note with satisfaction the statement issued yesterday by the General People's Committee for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation announcing the acceptance by Libya of this development.

  13. The initiative of holding a trial in the Netherlands before the panel of Scottish judges and under Scots law corresponds to one of the options which have been advocated as proposals for a possible solution by the League of Arab States, the Organization of African Unity, the Movement of Non-Aligned Countries and the Organization of the Islamic Conference. Indeed, Libya itself has repeatedly, including recently, endorsed those options. Therefore, there is every reason to expect that Libya will embrace the present initiative. The United Nations has an important role to play in this development. With the adoption of the draft resolution before us, the Security Council will pave the way for a trial by enabling the countries concerned to take all the necessary steps to implement the initiative.

  14. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Slovenia. Slovenia warmly welcomes the decision by the United Kingdom and the United States to agree to an arrangement to hold the trial of the two accused Libyan nationals in the Lockerbie case before a Scottish court sitting in the Netherlands. Slovenia also commends the Government of the Netherlands for its willingness to facilitate such a trial. We believe that this constructive and innovative arrangement opens a new way towards a final settlement of the Lockerbie case, a settlement long overdue. After almost 10 years since the brutal terrorist attack on the Pan Am plane, there is now renewed hope that justice will be served.

  31. The years of internecine conflict have left a tragic mark on the psyche of an entire generation of Angolans, for whom violence, hunger and the rule of the gun have become a way of life. The one-month extension of MONUA's mandate, as proposed by the Secretary-General, is therefore necessary. Indeed, it is imperative that a solution to the current impasse be found and that the Lusaka Protocol be preserved. Slovenia will therefore join all the other members of the Security Council in voting in favour of the draft resolution. I now resume my function as President of the Council. I shall now put to the vote the draft resolution contained in document S/1998/749. A vote was taken by show of hands.

  32. Lakhdar Brahimi, has helped to stabilize the situation and has resulted in a return to Luanda of the head of the UNITA delegation, Mr. Isaias Samakuva. Slovenia therefore welcomes the appointment of Mr. Issa Diallo as the new Special Representative for Angola. We encourage him to continue the legacy of Mr. Blondin Beye and put the peace process back on track as soon as possible. In this context, we would like to appeal to the Government and to UNITA to refrain from actions that could undermine the longest period of peace Angola has known in decades. We urge them to continue to search, with the assistance of the international community, for a non-military solution to their differences. In conclusion, let me say that implementing a peace agreement following a prolonged and destructive civil war is inevitably a difficult balancing act.

  33. For its part, the Government has helped to deepen the climate of mistrust and insecurity in the country by intensifying what the Secretary-General described in his latest report as "hostile propaganda". This development is all the more regrettable in the light of the fact that UNITA ceased its anti-Government transmissions on 1 April, when it closed down the Vorgan radio station and took a major step towards full compliance with the peace process. The situation in Angola thus calls for a renewed mediation effort by the international community. It is indicative that the disturbing spiral of violence came on the heels of the tragic death of the Secretary-Generals Special Representative, Mr. Alioune Blondin Beye, on 26 June. It is equally noteworthy, however, that the recent presence in Angola of the Secretary-General's Special Envoy, Mr.

  34. On 1 July, in response to the still- unresolved status of Andulo, Bailundo, N'Harea and Mungo, this Council imposed additional sanctions on UNITA, with a view to eliciting its cooperation. Rather than handing over the central highland strongholds, however, UNITA has since then embarked on what appears to be a carefully orchestrated campaign to retake areas previously ceded to the Government. This deplorable course of action has also confirmed the suspicions that UNITA has kept in reserve its elite combat units and their modern equipment, despite all the assurances to the contrary. Needless to say, such behaviour represents a brazen contravention of the Lusaka Protocol.

  35. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Slovenia. Recent developments in Angola have brought the country to the brink of an abyss. Active military preparations are under way, and both the Government and UNITA are engaged in forced-recruitment drives. The laying of new mines in the country is pervasive, and the United Nations Observer Mission in Angola (MONUA) has witnessed an increasing number of attacks on remote villages and police stations. The situation is particularly grim as over 1 million people are now internally displaced due to the derailment of the peace process. There is little doubt that UNITA bears the brunt of the responsibility for this lamentable state of affairs.
