“Most of the news reaching us today from the Balkans makes it possible for us to have moderate but firm optimism as regards the results of the peace process. We hope that the day is not too far off when it will no longer be necessary to use the sanctions regime in order to maintain international peace and security in that region. Finally, we wish to express our sincere appreciation to all the personnel of the Mission of the International Conference on the Former Yugoslavia. Thanks to them, every time this Council has reviewed the regime of sanctions against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro), it has had a clear and objective view of a reality with which it must be familiar in order to take the decisions entrusted to it.”

“Mr. Zawels (Argentina) (interpretation from Spanish): With the resolution that we have just adopted, this Council has dedicated itself to one of its most delicate functions - that of deciding, on the basis of the behaviour of a State, on the regime of sanctions imposed on it. In accordance with what we have stated at past meetings, we completely agree with the provisions of resolution 1015 (1995), which we believe to be an adequate response to developments and to the attitude of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro), not only as regards the closure of its border with the territories of Bosnia and Herzegovina under the control of the local Serb authorities, but also as regards its participation in the peace process.”

“From within the Security Council, Argentina will continue to see to it that the right conditions prevail for the continuation of this indispensable dialogue between the parties. We place all our hopes in the success of this dialogue.”

“This debate in the Security Council is a good opportunity to express firm support for the peace process that began in Madrid in 1991 and to repeat the need for the parties, with the support of the sponsors and the international community as a whole, to redouble their efforts to continue making progress together in this historic process, which opens up the clear prospect of a time of peace and prosperity for the Middle East as a whole. The Argentine Republic, which has a long-standing relationship of friendship with the Governments and peoples of the region, supports this peace process strongly and firmly and believes that it is the right framework, chosen by the parties themselves, to resolve outstanding questions.”

“The repeated terrorist attacks against both parties, but especially against Israel, are the barbaric acts of those who reject peace and seek only destruction and grief, using the excuse of hatred, the veil of fanaticism or the drug of resentment. My country has twice been the object of terrorist attacks related to the Middle East conflict, most recently in Buenos Aires, on 18 July 1994, when many Argentines, including, of course, some of Jewish origin, were killed or wounded. As a result, we are keenly aware of this scourge and believe that this subject requires the urgent attention not only of the parties, but also of the international community in general.”

“The situation created by Israeli settlements in the occupied territories is a source of concern for my Government. We believe that the Government of Israel and the Palestinian authorities should speed up the joint quest for a solution to this sensitive question. In recent months there have been some mixed signals; these have confused and disturbed the Palestinian people, which we find understandable. I wish to reiterate that the framework for this action is that stipulated in the Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements. This problem is undoubtedly serious. However, it is but one of the problems still unresolved and requiring an active solution by the parties.”

“The other, more recent, was the signing on 26 October 1994 of the Peace Treaty between the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and the State of Israel. This process is extremely complicated and necessarily difficult, with its many actors, issues and variables. However, the international community and, in particular, the United States and the Russian Federation, sponsors of the peace process, strongly support this effort, because they know that a lasting and just solution will spring only from dialogue and the firm belief of the concerned parties themselves. More than 40 years of searching for other means managed only to keep the conflict alive and, unfortunately, frustrated several generations in the Middle East. Today, however, we are walking the path of peace.”

“Mr. Zawels (Argentina) (interpretation from Spanish): Today, in circumstances that are obviously very different from those in which it has usually considered this question in the past, the Security Council is considering the situation in the occupied territories, in particular the matter of the Israeli settlements in those territories. In October 1991, this conflict began to be dealt with comprehensively, involving all of the parties and the various and essential bilateral and multilateral frameworks. The peace process begun in Madrid at that time has now begun to bear fruit. The first significant result was the Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements, signed by the Government of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) on 13 September 1993.”
