  1. “Finally, we call on all States and international institutions not to flag in their support for the Government and the people of El Salvador as they consolidate the gains already made in the peace process. As for the Salvadorans themselves, who have rightly assumed responsibility for the destiny of their country, we congratulate them and urge them to continue to work towards reconciliation and development so as to ensure that peace in El Salvador is secure and irreversible. We wish them well, and pray that never again will El Salvador appear on the agenda of the Security Council as an area of conflict.”

  2. “In the light of these difficulties, my delegation has joined in supporting the Secretary-General's proposal for the post-ONUSAL period, already endorsed by the Security Council, for a mechanism to be established in El Salvador to continue the verification responsibilities and good-offices functions that ONUSAL has carried out to date. This accords with the sentiment expressed in the Security Council's response to "Supplement to An Agenda for Peace", adopted in February this year, that for peace-keeping operations to be truly beneficial and sustainable the United Nations must maintain a continued interest in the post-conflict peace-building phase.”

  3. “But we note also that the peaceful transition to a democratic society has not gone unchallenged, and that outbursts of violence, such as that witnessed in January 1995, attest to how fragile and potentially dangerous the situation still is. It is to be noted that the land programme as it relates to the question of human settlements continues to be a source of serious concern. In addition, the inability of the Fund for the Protection of the Wounded and War-Disabled to function, because of lack of funds, also continues to be a potential source of unrest.”

  4. “In spite of these positive developments, following which, to borrow language from the current draft resolution, El Salvador has "evolved from a country riven by conflict into a democratic and peaceful nation" (S/1995/335, fourth preambular paragraph), my delegation agrees that much still remains to be done in the post-conflict era to consolidate the peace that has just been achieved, especially as certain important aspects of the Chapultepec peace agreements have still to be honoured. It is true that the FMLN participated in the 1994 elections as a single political party, and that therefore governance, in the hands of President Calderon Sol, has been effective.”

  5. “It is worth recalling that the United Nations Observer Mission in El Salvador, ONUSAL, winds up its operation 45 months after the opening of the pioneering human- rights-monitoring mission that was its initial stage, and 39 months after the formal cease-fire that accompanied full deployment. During this period the Salvadorans, including the Government and the Frente Farabundo Marti para la Liberacion Nacional (FMLN), have taken significant strides to ensure dialogue, openness and tolerance. The parties have generally kept their commitments under extant agreements, including that on the cease-fire, in the higher interests of peace and national development.”

  6. “It is not often that we have occasion to celebrate the successful conclusion of a United Nations peace-keeping operation. Today, however, El Salvador joins the small but, we hope, growing list of conflict situations where United Nations intervention has clearly made a difference in the life of troubled nations by reconciling the conflicting parties and fostering a climate of confidence and peace. We pay tribute, therefore, to the accomplishments of the United Nations Observer Mission in El Salvador (ONUSAL), under the authority of the Secretary-General and his successive Special Representatives, and of those States that supported the peace process.”
