Syrian Arab Republic

H.E. Mr. Bashar Ja¡¯Afari

Statement Summary

BASHAR JA¡¯AFARI (Syria) said that the United Nations was supposed to give hope to humanity through the framework of multilateral diplomacy. However, it has failed to build the means to stop the eruption of conflicts and war or to terminate occupation, colonialism and aggression. In many cases, the Organization has surrendered to the will of some States that seek hegemony in the world. The more prevalent pattern in international relations today is for one powerful country and its allies to occupy the land of another country without fear, in violation of the principles of the United Nations. Actions will judge Member States¡¯ commitment to the slogan ¡°We the peoples of the United Nations,¡± he said, adding that otherwise the Organization risks the same fate as the League of Nations by the time it reaches its centenary.
