Adoption of the agenda

The agenda was adopted.

The responsibility of the Security Council in the maintenance of international peace and security: HIV/AIDS and international peacekeeping operations

The President

I should like to inform the Council that I have received letters from the representatives of Indonesia, Malawi, Uganda and Zimbabwe, in which they requested to be invited to participate in the discussion of the item on the Council's agenda. In accordance with the usual practice, I propose, with the consent of the Council, to invite those representatives to participate in the discussion without the right to vote, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Charter and rule 37 of the Council's provisional rules of procedure.

There being no objection, it is so decided.

At the invitation of the President, Mr. Pohan (Indonesia), Mr. Juwayeyi (Malawi), Mr. Semakula Kiwanuka (Uganda) and Mr. Jokonya (Zimbabwe) took the seats reserved for them at the side of the Council Chamber.
The President

In accordance with the understanding reached in the Council's prior consultations, and in the absence of objection, I shall take it that the Council agrees to extend an invitation under rule 39 of its provisional rules of procedure to Dr. Peter Piot, Executive Director of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS.

There being no objection, it is so decided.

I invite Dr. Piot to take a seat at the Council table.

The Security Council will now begin its consideration of the item on its agenda. The Council is meeting in accordance with the understanding reached in its prior consultations.

I should like to draw the attention of the members of the Council to document S/2000/657, which contains the text of a letter dated 5 July 2000 from the Secretary-General addressed to the President of the Security Council, transmitting a note prepared by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS that summarizes actions taken to-date as a follow-up to the Security Council meeting on HIV/AIDS in Africa held on 10 January 2000.

Members of the Council have before them document S/2000/696, which contains the text of a draft resolution prepared in the course of the Council's prior consultations.

I shall now give the floor to the Executive Director of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, Dr. Peter Piot.

Dr. Piot (Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS) --> -->
