The only two parties involved in the Democratic Republic of the Congo now are the Transitional Government and the United Nations Organization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUC).

Our country stands ready to increase its contribution to the international community's efforts in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in order to support the democratic transition process under way.

Address by Mr. Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, President of the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Democratic Republic

Address by H.E. Mr. Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, President of the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Democratic Republic

The main aim of SSR in transitional countries is to introduce the principles of democratic governance to the security sector.

Their continued detention runs counter to the spirit and objective of democratic transition and national reconciliation, as expressed in the road map.

The parties participating in the transitional institutions PPRD, the Mouvement pour la libération du Congo (MLC), the Rassemblement congolais pour la démocratie Goma (RCD G) and the Forces du futur favoured an extension of the transition.

Encourage the Transitional Government to engage FDLR and urge it to disarm and repatriate to Rwanda.

The President The Assembly will now hear an address by the President of the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Democratic Republic.

Those regional initiatives require enhanced assistance from the international community if the transition in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is to be a success.

H.E. Mr. Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, President of the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Democratic Republic, addressed the General Assembly.

Mr. Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, President of the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Democratic Republic, was escorted into the General Assembly Hall.

Mr. Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, President of the Transitional Federal Government of the Somali Democratic Republic, was escorted from the General Assembly Hall.

In keeping with that Agreement, the transition process will come to an end in January 2006 with the installation of the new Government that has emerged from these democratic elections.

The Transitional Government should in this regard ensure that all possible steps are taken to strengthen the capacity of FARDC.

The Transitional Government bears the primary responsibility for leading the country towards the establishment and consolidation of a State based on the rule of law and on the functioning of democratic institutions.

The Transitional Government also faces considerable difficulties in the delivery of regular support to integrated FARDC brigades deployed in operational theatres in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the transitional period is at a decisive stage, problems persist in the eastern part of the country.

7. Encourages the international community to continue to support the transition in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and its institutions and, in particular, to provide assistance in the reform of national judicial institutions

They have all gone to Uganda to seek the support of the official authorities and to organize themselves in preparation to attack the Democratic Republic of the Congo and roil the transition process there.

The success of the transition would be threatened were the elections in the Democratic Republic of the Congo not to take place by 30 June 2006.

In the meantime, the Transitional Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is still considering issuing international arrest warrants for the leaders of the Ituri armed groups.

Belgium wants to contribute actively, including by sharing the experience it acquired in the transition processes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and in Burundi.

The mission expressed its satisfaction with the successful transition in Burundi, and welcomed the recent progress in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, particularly with regard to the upcoming elections.

President Mkapa and Foreign Minister Kikwete expressed support for the transition and welcomed recent progress in the electoral process in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Unless the Transitional Government holds accountable those responsible, violence against innocent people will continue in Ituri and elsewhere in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

(a) Provide political, financial, military and diplomatic support and assistance for the country's process of transition, reconstruction and pacification and for the affirmation of all attributes of sovereignty of the Democratic Republic of the Congo

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, despite some progress by the Transitional Government in extending its authority, power sharing was complicated by the fragile relations between its members.

I therefore welcome the commitment made on 16 July by the Transitional Government to take forcible action to disarm FDLR.

2. Welcomes the conclusion of the Global and All Inclusive Agreement on the Transition in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, signed in Pretoria on 17 December 2002 and the subsequent establishment of the Government of National Unity and Transition, and encourages the effective establishment of all transitional institutions
