As Chair of the Group of Arab States for the month of November,
it is my honour to introduce draft resolution A/67/L.10, entitled “Cooperation between the United Nations and the League of Arab States”, on behalf of the following countries: Algeria, Bahrain, the Comoros, Djibouti, Egypt, Iraq, Jorda…
I should like to thank you, Sir, and the members of the Security Council for giving us the opportunity to participate in this meeting to adopt the technical resolution 2075 (2012) extending the mandate of the United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA). I offer my thanks to all the memb…
All of us respect international justice and give it high priority. It is indispensable to our efforts to establish international peace and security. The United Nations was established for that very reason. However, and regrettably, we find that the Organization, which we hope will establish and enfo…
At the outset, I should like to thank you, Sir, for giving me the floor to present some information on my country’s policy for resolving the conflict in Darfur, and on developments in the peace process.
I wish to inform the Council that the Darfur peace process has come a long way. The most recent …
At the outset, I would like to commend the statements of the Secretary-General and the President concerning mediation and forgiveness. There is no doubt that the approach of mediation, and the attendant values of tolerance, forgiveness and reconciliation in settling disputes and conflicts, will lead…
Hearing the views of our colleagues can only help us to gain a better understanding of any subject, but refusing to listen to the ideas of others does not help in a practical or constructive way to promote peace and security. We represent States that enjoy full sovereignty, and while we may fail to …
First of all, I should like to congratulate you, Sir, on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council
for this month. Through you, I should also like to convey my gratitude to Mr. Ibrahim Gambari, Joint Special Representative of the Secretary-General for the African Union and the Unite…
The statement made by the Prosecutor concerning the Permanent Representative of the Sudan is a violation of all political and diplomatic norms. It is a threat that should be rejected and that reflects his methods of work at the Court. I would even say that it is the statement of a terrorist who is t…
I would first like to extend my thanks to your predecessor, Mr. President, the Permanent Representative of Azerbaijan, and to congratulate him on his exemplary conduct of the work of the Council last month. I would also like to congratulate you, Sir, on your assumption of the presidency for this mon…
The delegation of the Sudan would like to reiterate that it will cooperate with all members of the international community in the process of entrenching the concept of international justice. However, we are opposed to the politicization of that concept by any party. I would also like to state that w…
Mr. President, allow me to extend to you our sincere congratulations on your assumption of the presidency of the Council for this month. Since your accession to the presidency, you have demonstrated outstanding skills and shown that your impartiality is unquestionable. You stand by the values of rig…
At the outset, I should like to thank you, Sir, for giving us the opportunity to participate in this important meeting.
I believe that the presidential statement that has just been adopted is balanced. I should like, however, to clarify a few truths that may have been omitted. I do so not to attack…
I thank you, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to address the Council at this meeting, which is of particular importance as the occasion for the renewal of the mandate of the Panel of Experts on Darfur. I shall make my statement brief and concise.
By participating in this meeting, I seek once agai…
At the outset, I would like to welcome to this meeting Her Excellency Ms. Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, Minister for Foreign Affairs of sisterly South Africa. We are honoured to have her presiding over our deliberations today on the report (S/2011/814) of the Secretary- General on the African Union-United…
I would first like to say that the records of this meeting should reflect an important truth, namely, that our participation in this meeting should in no way be interpreted as Sudan dealing with the International Criminal Court (ICC). As the Council is aware, the Sudan is not a party to the Rome Sta…
I would just like to take two minutes to clarify that Jau is an inseparable part of the territorial integrity of the Sudan. What we heard today is not true. Yes, the 9th Division of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement is in Jau, but its presence is illegitimate and a form of occupation of those l…
At the outset, I would like to congratulate you, Sir, on assuming the presidency of the Security Council for the month of December.

Allow me, first, to thank you, Mr. President, for giving us this opportunity to participate in this meeting to enable the Council to acquaint itself with the truth, in order that it can adopt positive and objective resolutions. I should like to make five points during my intervention.
My first poin…
Allow me to begin by thanking Mr. Hervé Ladsous and Ms. Hilde Johnson for their statements and the information they have provided.
I shall comment in detail on those statements by summarizing each piece of information that has been provided. However, I would first like to recall a fact that — with …
At the outset, I would like to extend our thanks to the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for presenting the Agency’s annual report to the General Assembly (see A/66/95).
