Asoke Kumar Mukerji Permanent Representative of India to the United Nations India like many other nations of the United Nations is rapidly losing patience with the bickering in the Security Council when it comes to Syria, we therefore urge the members of the Security council to with all haste adopt a resolution concerning the force planned to take control of the area currently controlled by the Turkish army and then move on to discuss how the fight the IS , future elections etc. Edited by Uruk, Apr 30 2015, 03:01 PM.

Rosemary A. DiCarlo United States Ambassador to the United Nations Mr Churkin, I can neither confirm or deny that the United States of America is in talks with Castro's government. However while it is true that Castro doesn't have the greatest human rights record his governmental record looks like the actions of a saint in comparison to the things that Assad has done to both his own people and the Iraqi's. It is also unequivocally false that America is to blame for both the rise of the Islamic State, and the failure of this body to come to a reasonable agreement to replace Turkish forces before their withdrawal. Our position has been quite favorable to Assad, and the Syrian people who have been through a terrible ordeal and suffered much under Assad's tyrannical regime with continued reports of serious crimes against humanity that were conducted by Assad's forces of the brutality and kind that we have not seen on this fair planet since we defeated the Nazi's. The American position has always been in favor of UN forces in Syria to replace Turkish troops. Where we have disagreed Mr Churkin is on the subject of the scope of the operations as I believe strongly that President Assad should face consequences for his criminal actions, and the scope of the UN presence in Syria should reflect the scope of said consequences as the United Nations should not be in the business of enabling tyrants and turning a blind eye to crimes against humanity.

Asoke Kumar Mukerji Permanent Representative of India to the United Nations Forgive me for being less than diplomatic but what happens in Cuba, Iraq or Westros for that matter shouldn´t have an impact on the subject at hand. It is time for the P5 nations to shoulder the responsibility and trust they have given and cooperate to make a resolution to resolve the situation created by the Turkish intervention and subsquent withdrawal, to put it bluntly the P5 needs to either step up or step out. |

![]() Ja Song Nam Permanent Ambassador to the United Nations Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea The delegation of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea finds statements from the West to be a simple continuation of their Imperialist policies and willingness to use the United Nations as a tool for their own devices. The United States of America and her "allies" have, in the recent past, used the United Nations to create a mandate in Libya: a mandate which then allowed this regime in Washington and its stooges to launch a virtual invasion of that country in order to install a puppet regime. And now, when that regime is in trouble by freedom fighters, they once again invade. How can America say that it supports freedom and democracy when it shows, time and time again, that it supports neither freedom nor peace. Freedom to choose their own leaders? Of course America couldnt allow that because said leaders are not puppets of Washington. And as far as peace: America hasnt been at peace in sixty years. It is because of these reasons that the DPRK applauds the work of the Russian Federation and our fraternal Communist brothers in the Peoples Republic of China in supporting the honorable President Assad and his government of peace. President Assad has, on many occasions, called for peace and negotiations. And every time illegal attacks by those who pretend to serve the people show in actions the rebels response. And we are glad to see countries standing by continued true Syrian security, and not bowing to the whims of Washington. We are certain any attempt by Washington to undermine the Cuban government as it has tried before will be sure to fail. Thank you. |

Rosemary A. DiCarlo United States Ambassador to the United Nations President Clinton has noted the opinions expressed by the honorable representative of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, and we find it full of routine flaws that we have come to expect from the honorable representatives of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. While I do not have time to delve into the many issues that are beside the point that have been made by the Korean representative I can only say that at times force must be used to defend Freedom, and in the case of Syria support justice for the victims of the Assad regime. It is also of no surprise to us that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea considers a bunch of ruthless terrorists to be "Freedom fighters," and has failed to recognize America's support of the legitimate government of Libya.

![]() Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations Mr. Secretary General, Since this debate opened, the Russian Representative has given us pledges and assurances that we would soon see positive results from the battlefield in Syria. I therefore would like to see those results. Let me lay emphasis that in the State of Israel we surely hope for Russian success against the terrorist army of ISIS, regardless of our poor relations directly to Moscow. However the Russian intervention in Syria has not brought any form of success combating ISIS. It is therefore a necessity that Moscow alters its stance to Bashar al-Assad and allow an interim government to take leadership or we will soon all witness Damascus being proclaimed new capital of the Caliphate. If we end up at that point, the State of Israel will intervene and we will use full force to remove the jihadists to protect not only Israel but the entire region from enslavement. Thank you. |

Liu Jieyi | 刘结 Permanent Representative to the United Nations | 常驻联合国 Without wishing to sound negative about the prospects of 'defeating' Islamic State, or sounding supportive of the reign of President Assad, I must ask what those who are calling for the resignation think will happen in the even that he is removed. Those who oppose his rule are so fractured, so corrupt, so greedy, and so infused with extremists, that no credible alternative exists that is favourable. The Western experiment in enforced regime change in Syria, stoking and arming insurgent forces who have subsequently aligned with the very terrorist groups that billions of dollars and thousands of lives were wasted fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq, has failed. Look across the region at what the result of toppling the dictators in Libya, Iraq and the attempt in Syria has created. The only winner in deposing Assad will be the Islamic State. If the international community is dead set on removing the only thing holding the Syrian Army, which at present is the only real fighting force capable of combating IS, then you may well end up with something truly evil on your border Mr Prosor, and that is something that nobody wants to see. The so called 'moderate opposition' is plagued from top to bottom with corruption and people harbouring extremist sympathies. If Assad stood down and an election was to be held, do people honestly think that some semblance of 'Western democracy' would blossom in Syria? I think we would soon see internecine violence akin to Lebanon in the 1980s within the opposition forces, and once again, the benefactor would be IS. While these 'moderate' groups fight one another, IS would no doubt brush them aside. The longer the international community drags its heels on finding a solution to defeating the Islamic State and the other terrorist elements within Syria, the more powerful the Islamic State grows. We have tabled a resolution permitting intervention against these forces to the Security Council, but the obsession with removing Assad is preventing its passing. |

Permanent Representative of the Turkish Republic to the United Nations Turkey acknowledges the validity of points made by the Chinese representative, and agrees that rapid regime change would do much more toward strengthening 'Daesh' than most anything else, but this assembly would be remiss to ignore the fact that the regime in Damascus has actively pursued genocide against the people of Syria, and is unfit to remain in power in that country. Those two realities are parallel, and both relevant in their own right. Turkey feels we must address 'Daesh' and the regime in Damascus, respectively. |

Liu Jieyi | 刘结 Permanent Representative to the United Nations | 常驻联合国 I wouldn't disagree with the comments made by my Turkish counterpart at all. President Assad has committed serious war crimes and should be held to account in the future. |

![]() Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations Mr. Secretary General, The Government in Moscow has tasked itself with the intervention in Syria. It has vocally issued statements that it would combat ISIS and simultanously blocked initiatives for international collaboration to combat this evil. Now I take the stand once again to condemn the inaction by Russia that allows ISIS to hold a fertile basis for operations in not only Syria, but Jordan, Lebanon and Iraq. I request action and thus reformation of Russia's current agenda in the Middle East, rather than exploring now ways to de-stabilize the world as recently seen in Venezuela. Without collaboration amongst the P5 and other international partners, Russia will continue towards loosing its campaign regardless if the dictator Bashar al-Assad remains in power. |

Vitaly Churkin Permanent Ambassador to the United Nations Russian Federation Mr Prosor, You have seen what happens in Syria when Russian forces do not take the initiative. IS pushes back. Due to a change in our policies we had adopted a more defensive posture in Syria, aimed at holding ground against IS. It turns out the enemy is not content with siting in their zone of control, they aim to take the fight to all in Syria. Like Syria or not, Mr Prosor, Syria was a stable nation. Due in part to your actions and the actions of your allies, stabilizing Syria is not going to be an easy task. You seem intent on pointin the finger at Moscow. If fingers must be pointed you must point them at the United States for creating the power vacuum in Iraq as a direct result of their invasion and occupation. It was their foreign policy that had the greatest impact in creating the Islamic State. We are cleaning up their mess in Syria. Russia's actions have consistently been to help the Syrian people. The USA would offer help only if President Assad was in NATO custody. We would have an agreement on Syria already if the United States and their NATO allies weren't trying to force through a UNSC resolution that would call for regime change, allowing for NATO to install yet another government of their choosing in a foreign nation. You can be part of the problem, Mr Prosor, or part of the solution. Right now you are being part of the problem. You are intent on short term gains without a thought of the long term ramifications of your actions. NATO is guilty of this as well, with their untimely regime change in Libya, the US led invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, all of these events which will have a long lasting affect on the region. The Islamic State is but one of the ramifications. There may be more to come. |
