Mr. Afonso
Mozambique voted in favour of amendments S/2024/797 and S/2024/798, proposed by the Algerian delegation, for two main reasons. First, we consider the amendments to be consistent with the previous decisions of the Council on similar matters. Secondly, the amendments are valid on their own merits because they relate to human rights.
The issue of Western Sahara has been before the Security Council …

Mr. Bendjama
As members have no doubt noted, Algeria made the fully conscious and responsible decision not to participate in the voting on resolution 2756 (2024) for a number of reasons, which I shall now touch upon.
The first reason was the attitude demonstrated by the penholder. Over the past week, our views, despite having been meticulously documented and based on language agreed within the Security Counc…
The President
