Headline Security Council Adopts Resolution Endorsing Road Map Leading Towards Two-State Resolution of Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

Caption Description The Security Council met this morning to discuss the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question. Kieran Prendergast, Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs, told the Council that the period of inertia, excuses and conditionality in Middle East peacemaking must end. He said when he had last addressed the Council (21 October 2003), he had called on the Israelis and Palestinian to return to the negotiating table and recommit to the Road Map process, and had urged the international community to reassert its role. Sadly, since then, everyone -- the Israelis, Palestinians and the international community -- had waited for others to act. Particularly now, with a new Palestinian Prime Minister, ""we cannot afford just to keep waiting"", he said. Progress could not be contingent on the actions expected of others. Even if not directly negotiating, there was much the Israelis and Palestinians could and should do to meet their Road Map obligations. After his briefing, the Council unanimously passed Resolution 1515 (2003) endorsing the Road Map, which advocates achieving ""the vision of two States living side by side in peace and security"".
John D. Negroponte, Permanent Representative of the United States to the United Nations, addressing correspondents after today's Security Council meeting.
