“Indeed, the Chinese delegation is of the view that the whole question of the former Yugoslavia, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, should be settled politically through peaceful negotiations. We are not in favour of the use or threat of force. We therefore continue to have reservations on the resolution's invocation of Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter to authorize mandatory actions.”

“Mr. Zhang Awn (China) (interpretation from Chinese): The Chinese delegation voted in favour of the resolution just adopted. Like other members of the international community, we hope that the increase in the personnel of the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR) will help create a more favourable environment for the various parties to seek, through peaceful negotiations, an early and comprehensive political solution to the conflict. Recently, the situation in and around Gorazde has eased considerably. The shelling has ceased, humanitarian relief convoys have entered Gorazde and UNPROFOR troops have been deployed. We welcome these developments. We believe that the international community should seize this opportunity to urge the parties concerned to seek a negotiated political solution to the conflict.”
