Madame Chair and Fellow Delegates,
The Republic of Cote d’lvoire (Ivory Coast) is honored to participate in the 2011 Model United Nations Security Council. Ivory Coast looks forward to a peaceful and productive session filled with debate as well as constructive ideas and resolutions.
On the issue of terrorism and international responses Ivory Coast believes it is necessary to consider the many forms of terrorism that are threatening the different regions of the world. Ivory Coast considers the origin of the perpetrator whether it is internal or external. In such situations of terrorism Ivory Coast believes we should hold responsible the organization, not the country.
Ivory Coast strongly believes that The United Nations should stand by the people by immediately starting to work with the government to support in getting the country on the right track toward reconciliation, democracy, economic recovery and sustainable development. Having experienced economical struggles in the past Ivory Coast shifted public investment from infrastructure to crop diversification and agricultural processing to improve export earnings. Therefore, Ivory Coast recommends that the European Union cuts unnecessary government spending and emphasize key cash crops and production.
Ivory Coast believes that it’s essential for guidelines to be made to stabilize post-revolutionary nations. Having faced an armed rebellion in 2002, that split the country between north and south causing episodes of political unrest and violence, Ivory Coast would like to address the idea of fostering national unity. Leading to decrease instability, violence, and human rights abuses.
The republic of Cote d’lvoire is delighted to be here tonight, and looks forward to a productive session.
