Enabling the Safe Withdrawal of UN Observer Mission in Syria

"Our strong preference was to adopt the resolution that was regrettably vetoed yesterday in order to give the men and women of UNSMIS a final last, best opportunity to succeed. In the absence of that the Council fortunately was able to come together today. The decision we took was to extend the UNSMIS mission for a final period of 30 days to allow it to withdraw safely and orderly—in an orderly fashion."

- Ambassador Susan E. Rice

Russia and China's Destructive Vetoes on Syria

"The United States has not and will not pin its policy on an unarmed observer mission that is deployed in the midst of such widespread violence and that cannot count on even the minimal support of this Security Council. Instead, we will intensify our work with a diverse range of partners outside the Security Council to bring pressure to bear on the Assad regime and to deliver assistance to those in need.

Sustaining Peace in Post-Conflict Nations

"This Council’s mandate to advance peace and security demands that we work not just to end conflict, but to prevent its recurrence. By aligning with national priorities, strengthening international partnerships, and learning from what we have already accomplished, the Peacebuilding Commission has great potential to help countries emerging from war stay on the path to peace."
