It shares the Secretary-General's View that the existing status of forces agreements constitute an appropriate and sufficient basis for the presence of UNPF/UNPROFOR, including the RRF.”

To that end, we also underline the need for increased efforts to expedite the improvement of the prison and judicial system. The Indonesian delegation is pleased to note the spirit of cooperation with which the Council has responded to the resolution, which respects the sovereign right of the Government of Rwanda to maintain peace and security, while addressing concerns about a recurrence of the tragedy that claimed the lives of so many innocent civilians in Rwanda's terrible civil war.”

19. “In this regard, it is of paramount importance that the countries surrounding Rwanda contribute to monitoring the arms flow in the region in order to prevent civilians or destabilizing forces in the region, especially refugees in Rwandan camps within their territories, from acquiring military materiel. Therefore, my delegation supports the establishment of a commission to investigate the alleged arms flow to former Rwandan government forces in the region, as reflected in paragraph 2. The lifting of the embargo on the Government of Rwanda does not come without a measure of responsibility.”

20. “Furthermore, elements in the resolution, such as a review of the effects of the resolution in six months and one year, as reflected in paragraph 12, would help ensure the fulfilment of its basic objectives. It is essential that the Rwandan Government refrain from the use of arms and related materiel for any but legitimate purposes in accordance with international law, such as self-defence. We expect that the resolution will enable Rwanda to take primary responsibility for maintaining its own security structure, independent of United Nations forces, in order to ensure peace and stability throughout the Great Lakes region.”

21. “The arms embargo was imposed because the uncontrollable circulation of arms was a major factor in the destabilization of the country. In fact, the present Government has made serious efforts towards stability and a peaceful reconstruction of Rwanda, and it is therefore our view that the decision which the Council has taken today will in fact help prevent a recurrence of past violence. Considering the recent history of Rwanda, it is understandable that there may be some concern that an increasing flow of arms may lead to disorder in the country, but the resolution should be seen from a more positive perspective. It marks an important step in the development of Rwanda and represents the international community' 5 adjusting views on its realities.”

At the outset, my delegation would like to thank the Secretary-General for his comprehensive report on the progress of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda and the valuable observations contained therein, which have provided the necessary framework for the Council's discussion on the resolution. My delegation voted in favour of the resolution before us today, which decides that the restrictions imposed by paragraph 13 of resolution 918 (1994) concerning the sale or supply of arms and related mate'riel to the Government of Rwanda shall be suspended, and terminated permanently on 1 September 1996, unless the Security Council decides otherwise.”

24. “The Republic of Zaire wishes to take this opportunity to express its most heartfelt condolences to Italy over the loss of those peaceful people who were working for an organization with laudable goals and who were savagely massacred. I would like to ask the Security Council to bear in mind what I have said the next time it considers the situation in Rwanda and to take it to heart. The President: I thank the representative of Zaire for the kind words he addressed to me. It is my understanding that the Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the draft resolution before it. If I hear no objection I shall put the draft resolution to the vote. There being no objection, it is so decided.

25. “That is why, as the Council is about to adopt the draft resolution before it, Zaire would like to draw the Council's and the international community's attention to the worsening of the situation on the eastern borders of our country. We would like the Security Council to address the situation. The Republic of Zaire would like to inform the Council here and now that if the situation should degenerate we will hold the Kigali Government and the Bujumbura Government responsible. The Security Council should attach priority to the disarmament of the militias, of course, but we should bear in mind the recent massacre of a group of peaceful Italians.”

26. “So far, out of solidarity and a sense of humanity, the Republic of Zaire has not wanted to resort to those provisions, convinced, on the one hand, that the United Nations and the international community would do everything possible to alleviate Zaire's burden and to facilitate the return of refugees to their countries of origin, and on the other hand, that the sister Rwandese Republic would assume in good faith its obligations under the tripartite agreement between Zaire, Rwanda and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) on the repatriation of Rwandan refugees, which was signed in Kinshasa on 21 October 1994. Unfortunately, this has not happened, and the Republic of Zaire cannot indefinitely sacrifice its own security for the sake of unilateral solidarity and humanitarianism, which could be suicidal.”

27. “Facing this situation, Zaire is justified in derogating from the principle that refugees should not be subjected to measures such as refusal of entry at the border or, if they have already entered a territory where they seek asylum, expulsion or deportation to another State where they may be persecuted. Indeed, in accordance with article 3 of the General Assembly's Declaration on Territorial Asylum, of 14 December 1967, any State Member of the United Nations can derogate from the principles enunciated therein for overriding reasons of national security or in order to safeguard its population, as in the case of a mass influx of persons. Clearly, in this case Zaire intends to give the persons concerned the option of finding another host State.”

28. “By suspending the embargo on the supply of arms to Rwanda for a trial period of one year, the Security Council would authorize Rwanda to obtain military equipment and other modern, sophisticated war materiel at a time when it is barely concealing its warlike intentions and when it is threatening to attack refugee camps in Zaire. It is also a time when Rwanda is not promoting a climate of understanding and national reconciliation, but, rather, is encouraging new flows of refugees to Zaire, which has the appearance of the expulsion of Rwanda's own nationals for political, ethnic and tribal reasons. In other words, even though the Security Council has included conditions in this text, adoption of the draft resolution will not contribute to easing tension in the region.”

29. “As the Council considers a draft resolution by which it would lift the embargo on the supply of arms to Rwanda, I wish to convey Zaire's gratitude to Council members, who have worked tirelessly to improve the text that was initially proposed. At the same time, we must stress that the compromise text of the draft resolution on lifting the embargo on the supply of arms and related materiel to Rwanda, which the Council is soon to adopt, although it has indeed taken into account some aspects of Zaire's position, falls far short of our expectations, given the deterioration of the situation and the exacerbation of tension in the region.”

We are appalled by reports, confirmed today, of atrocities, mass murder and other violations of humanitarian law committed by the Bosnian Serbs against Bosnian men and boys in Srebrenica. These reported atrocities underline the need for prompt action by the international community to ensure Bosnian Serb compliance with the demands contained in the resolution.

The Security Council has today consecutively adopted two separate draft resolutions, one on Croatia and now one on Bosnia and Herzegovina. The adoption of these resolutions serves as a reminder of the fact that the conflicts in the two countries are closely interlinked. Further, we view the adoption of the two resolutions as symbolizing the international community's renewed determination to arrest the cycle of violence and the logic of war which for far too long have dominated the mind- set of those directly involved. The Indonesian delegation is firmly committed to the demands contained in the resolution that has just been adopted.”

44. “The Indonesian delegation appeals to all parties concerned to immediately cease their hostilities and seek to prevent any further widening of the conflict. In this regard, we should like to place particular emphasis on the need for the parties concerned to exercise the utmost restraint in and around Sector East. This conflict can never be solved by resorting to war - an option that will simply lead to greater human suffering, casualties and injustice. We underline the need to leave no stone unturned in the search for a comprehensive, lasting and just settlement to the conflict, not only in Croatia but also in the territories of the former Yugoslavia as a whole.”
