I am confident that the results will reveal that [the U.N. Population Fund] is doing very professional work and giving lots of help to women in this critical stage in the developing areas particularly, ... not only in areas of health and reproduction but the whole area of being able to take care of themselves and to protect themselves in days when we are being confronted with all sorts of epidemics and diseases. |
I am confident that the Security Council would be ready to take firm action if that was justified, |
I am delighted that president Bush has accepted to play this role. I know the Pakistan authorities are too. We know that he is going to bring extraordinary leadership and attention to this terrible tragedy. |
I am especially troubled by instances in which U.N. peacekeepers are alleged to have sexually exploited minors and other vulnerable people, |
I am getting implications from some sources -- governments close to Iraq, governments friendly with Iraq -- that Iraq is coming in that spirit, or saying there is some flexibility on the part of Iraq, |
I am in touch with several heads of state, ... We need money, police and troops. I hope not only France, but other states, and not only Security Council members, will help us. |
I am not sure that they will be ready to refer (Iran) to the Security Council if the official report of the board has not been released and deliberated upon by the board and a decision taken. |
I am pushing very hard for a political settlement, ... If force becomes necessary, we will need to look at that. The threat is essential. |
I am quite confident that a cease-fire can be achieved and a summit can go ahead, |
I am relieved that this saga is now over, ... I made it clear from the beginning that the boy belongs with his father. |
I am shocked by the news, ... I had met with Chief Abiola just last week and he seemed in good health. I expected his imminent release from detention by the authorities and the beginning of a process to restore democratic civilian rule to Nigeria. |
I am still optimistic, |
I am telling the world leaders not only to come here and approve of a plan of action, but I expect them to go back home and do something about it, |
I am thankful that the resolution passed tonight, ... I hope we will move ahead with urgent and determined action to help the Liberian people. |
I am very concerned that despite some signs of progress, the work may not finish on time and that the deadline will be missed, |
