Mr. Kiboino (Kenya)
My delegation thanks the United States, the penholder, for facilitating the negotiation of resolution 2633 (2022). We appreciate the fact that some of the proposals made by the three African members of the Security Council  — Gabon, Ghana and Kenya — were taken on board. Nevertheless, Kenya abstained in the voting on the resolution because the text falls short of the call by the Intergovernmental…
Mr. Raguttahalli (India)
I am taking the floor to explain India’s vote on resolution 2633 (2022) on South Sudan, which was just adopted. South Sudan is a young member of the United Nations, emerging from the ravages of civil war and facing a multitude of challenges on the political, security and development fronts. They are typical for any newly independent nation, irrespective of time or place on the globe. During the …
Mr. Korbieh (Ghana)
At the outset, I would like to thank the penholder, the United States, for its diligent and committed efforts during the negotiations on resolution 2633 (2022), on South Sudan, which was just adopted. Ghana commends the constructive engagement of all members of the Council on the resolution and believes that it will help to provide the stability required for the further engagement of the South S…
Mr. Biang (Gabon)
We would like to thank the United States delegation for its work during the negotiations. Gabon abstained in the voting on resolution 2633 (2022), renewing the mandate of the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 2206 (2015) concerning South Sudan. Our abstention reflects the position of the African Union in the communiqué of the tenth meeting of the African Union Peace a…
Ms. Evstigneeva (Russian Federation)
The Russian Federation abstained in the voting on resolution 2633 (2022), prepared by the United States, on the extension of the sanctions regime on South Sudan. Security Council sanctions constitute a powerful response to threats to peace, but we firmly believe that they must be applied with the utmost care and be totally justified and nuanced. Their use as a punitive measure is unacceptable. T…
Mr. Dai Bing (China)
The Security Council sanctions regime on South Sudan is the most controversial of all the Council’s sanctions regimes. That is because South Sudan is the youngest State Member of the United Nations, and one that has endured a decade of war and whose foundations are very fragile. It needs constructive support, not sanctions pressure, from the international community, because the African Union and …
The President
I now give the floor to the representative of South Sudan.
Mr. Malwal (South Sudan)
My delegation congratulates you, Madam, and your delegation on your assumption of the presidency of the Council this month. We are saddened by the senseless shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Please accept our condolences as we offer our sympathies to the families of those who lost their loved ones at the school. Regrettably, the Council just adopted a resolution (resolution 2633 (2022)) in the belief t…
