S-PV-4265 2001-01-26 10:00 26 January 2001 [[26 January]] [[2001]] /

The situation in East Timor Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor (S/2001/42).

The meeting was called to order at 10.25 a.m.

Expression of sympathy to the Government and the people of India and of Pakistan in connection with the earthquake affecting their countries

The President

At the outset of the meeting, I should like, on behalf of the Council, to express deep condolences to the Government and the people of India and of Pakistan in connection with the earthquake which occurred today in western India, resulting in considerable devastation and loss of life. I am sure that members of the Council share my feelings on this matter.

Expression of farewell to the outgoing Legal Counsellor for the United States Mission

The President

I should like also to take this opportunity to bid farewell to Mr. Bob Rosenstock, the Legal Counsellor for the United States Mission. Mr. Rosenstock has been at the United States Mission since 1964. I understand that in 1964, there were 115 States Members of the United Nations. Today, there are 189. Hundreds of representatives have come and gone, but Bob has stayed on to work on those issues that are so important to us all. I can say this with some conviction, because when I came here for the first time as an ambassador, from 1984 to 1989, Mr. Rosenstock was already a legend then. He should know that everyone in this room will miss him when he leaves. I hope the members of the Council will now join me in a round of applause to bid farewell to a colleague who has been with us for 37 years.

I give the floor to Mr. Rosenstock.

Mr. Rosenstock (United States)

Thank you very much for that very touching comment. I see there are more speakers than even I have years, so I will be very brief and merely again express my very profound thanks for the extraordinary gesture on the part of Security Council members, who -- all of them out of order -- applauded, which was even more enjoyable, and I certainly do not raise a point of order to it. Thank you again.

Adoption of the agenda

The agenda was adopted.

The situation in East Timor

Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor (S/2001/42)
The President

I should like to inform the Council that I have received letters from the representatives of Australia, Brazil, Chile, Fiji, Japan, Indonesia, Mozambique, New Zealand, the Philippines, the Republic of Korea and Sweden in which they request to be invited to participate in the discussion of the item on the Council's agenda. In conformity 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.
