Today I would like to limit my remarks to a few general points that my Government considers of particular importance.

I cannot conclude my remarks without speaking briefly to an issue that has greatly exercised the Council of late.

In the interest of keeping within the time limit, I shall limit my oral remarks, but the full text will be circulated to delegations.

Before concluding my substantive remarks, allow me to say few words on the issue of the rationalization of the working methods of the First Committee.

I am personally involved in the neighboring countries to the East, so I shall confine my remarks to that region.

I close my remarks by reiterating our proposal that we ought to be working for a new synthesis, a new consensus.

In my remarks today, I would like first to update the Assembly on where the Court stands, and secondly, to speak about the cooperative relationship between the Court and the United Nations.

One thing I noticed on my quick tour around on the night of the Nasfa was that a large proportion of children were accompanied by housemaids instead of their mothers, sisters and so on, as used to be the case.

Before concluding my remarks, let me underscore the fact that the Millennium Development Goals present a serious challenge to both developing and developed countries.

No, I'm looking actually at a special version of PowerPoint over here, which shows me the slides ahead, the slides behind, my notes from here, so I can see what's going on.

Before concluding my remarks, I would like to express my sincere hope that the number of occasions providing youth delegates with the opportunity to participate in the work of the United Nations will continuously increase.

I would like to focus my comments on one issue the importance of the rapid and targeted deployment of civilian experts for a successful transition from peacekeeping to peacebuilding and subsequently building the foundations for long term development.

I should, before closing my remarks, use this opportunity to extend congratulations to the International Atomic Energy Agency and to its Director General, Mr. Mohamed ElBaradei, on the award of this year's Nobel Peace Prize.

There is a fundamental difference between the EU's Eastern and Southern flanks. I am personally involved in the neighboring countries to the East, so I shall confine my remarks to that region.

This is just one example of the cases we see. If you see my notebook and the notes Sasha and Marie have taken, you will read a lot of sad and complicated stories of many families. We discuss how to find balanced solutions for each family.

Not only is it humorous and well produced, but, based on my observations in the Middle East, this advertisement is also an accurate reflection of reality.

They have heard, secondly, that they need to redouble and intensify their efforts to address, in particular, the shortcomings that we all recognize and that I also referred to in my opening remarks, notably in the areas of return and freedom of movement, and overall to improve the conditions and the protection of minorities.

In short, China s government is confusing a path with the final destination a point that I stressed in my remarks to the CDF, in which I argued that China is in the early stages of rebalancing its economy toward services and consumption. In fact, China is far from settling in to a new normal.
