SUBJECT: GENERAL DEBATE CONTINUES: CUBA AND MYANMAR SPEAK 
 
1. SUMMARY: The eleventh plenary meeting of the 64th UN 
general assembly was held on the morning of September 28. The 
following countries spoke:  San Marino, Namibia, Peru, 
Myanmar, Mexico, Bahrain, Cuba, Tunisia, Eritrea; Syria; 
Niger; Sudan; Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); Oman; 
Belize; Singapore; Hungary; Bhutan.  The themes of the 
economic crisis, climate change and United Nations reform, 
specifically the expansion of permanent members of the 
security council continued. Cuba spoke against the economic 
embargo and blamed theses policies for much of its economic 
problems.  Myanmar spoke against UN sanctions.  Full text of 
statements is available at un.org/ga/64/generaldebate, video 
archives are at un.org/webcast/2009html. 
 
2. Myanmar Foreign Minister Thein Sein discussed the economic 
crisis and stated that the developing countries are the 
hardest hit.  Thein Sein called on the developed countries to 
increase their Overseas Development Assistance to the 
developing world.  He then addressed sanctions against 
Myanmar stating they have "no moral basis as they not only 
hinder the economic and social development of the people but 
also interfere in matters which are essentially within the 
domestic jurisdiction of the country."  He blamed these on 
"powerful nations" who want to pressure developing countries. 
 Thein Sein discussed his country's new constitution and the 
planned elections.  He stated that "democracy cannot be 
imposed from the outside, and a system suitable for Myanmar 
can only be born out of Myanmar society." 
 
3. Cuban Foreign Minister Parrilla, after briefly mentioning 
climate change and the economic crisis, blasted the United 
States for the embargo on Cuba. He described it as a 
"unilateral aggression that should be unilaterally 
terminated."  He stated that Cuba had hoped that after the 
"infamous legacy of the George W. Bush regime had been sunk 
in repudiation" relations would improve between the United 
States and Cuba.  He then went on to list the ways that the 
embargo was hurting Cuba: restricted travel by Cubans and 
Americans, freezing of funds by the Treasury, banning of 
Cuban exports and restricting third country vessels that dock 
in Cuba from going the U.S. ports.  He called for a release 
of the "five Cuban anti terrorism fighters."  On Honduras, 
Parilla advocated for a return of the constitutionally 
elected President but also attacked the U.S. stating that 
"the American fascist right, represented by Cheney, openly 
supports and sustains the coup."  He objected to US military 
bases in Columbia, stating that they are "threatening the 
revolutionary and progressive processes, particularly the 
Bolivarian Revolution in the sister nation of Venezuela."  He 
said the economic crisis will cause an increase in world 
hunger. 
 
4. Mexico Foreign Minister Cantellano discussed the economic 
crisis, climate change, Security Council reform and the 
constitutional crisis in Honduras.  She stated that Mexico 
supports the adoption of development financing and the 
finalization of the Doha Round.  She warned of the food 
crisis and how it can affect the Millennium Development 
Goals.  Mexico supports "solutions that increase the 
representativeness of the Council, translate into better 
accountability and does not jeopardize its efficacy." 
Cantellano called for the dialogue on Honduras to continue 
with the OAS toward a return of the constitutional 
government.  Peru Foreign Minister Belaunde echoed the call 
for president Zeleya's return in Honduras.  Belaunde called 
for "dialogue that leads to the re-establishment of the 
democratic system."  He stated the issue of the human rights 
of migrants stating that it is a tool for development for 
both the origin and host countries.  He also mentioned the 
economic crisis, climate change and drug trafficking in the 
region. 
 
5. San Marino Foreign Minister Mularoni addressed UN reform 
stating that the General Assembly needed to be revitalized 
within the "global governance system."  Mularoni praised the 
adoption in 2006 of the Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy and 
cautioned that human rights must be respected in all levels 
of society.  Namibia Foreign Minister Hausiku, echoing the AU 
position, raised the issue of security council seats for 
Africa.  He also called for a lifting of the economic embargo 
of Cuba. 
 
6. Bahrain Foreign Minister Al Khalifa discussed the Arab - 
Israeli conflict stating that "its sad legacy of misery and 
human suffering envenoms international and regional 
relations."  Al Khalifa called for a two state solution based 
on equal security for all the nations of the region.  He 
called on the international community, particularly "the most 
influential leading powers" to exert influence to have Israel 
dismantle all of the illegal settlements.  On Iran, he called 
for the nuclear program to be confronted in a manner to 
"spare our region the threat of confrontation".  Tunisia 
Foreign Minister Addallah noted the United States stance on 
the Middle East issue, specifically the two state solution, 
and called on Israel to withdrawal from the "occupied Syrian 
Golan and remaining Lebanese lands."  Abdallah stressed the 
reform of the UN, stating that Africa needed equitable 
geographical representation within the United Nations.  He 
addressed how the youth are being affected by the economic 
crisis.  Tunisia also supported the lifting of the Cuban 
embargo. 
 
7. Eritrean Foreign Minister Osman Saleh supported the 
reengineering of the United Nations as the world has "been 
hijacked to serve the interest of the few." He insisted that 
increasing the number of seats in the Security Council would 
help reform the world order. 
 
8. Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Al-Moualem spent most of his 
address criticizing Israel for defying the Security Council, 
its friends and allies, and the will of the international 
community.  Furthermore, he called on Israel to submit itself 
to International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) review and to 
adhere to the Non Proliferation Treaty.  Al-Moualem described 
the situation in Iraq as a serious concern for Syria and 
condemned all terrorist acts in Iraq while denying any Syrian 
involvement in the events.  He supported Yemen, Sudan, and 
Somalia in their efforts for peace and unity and called for 
the removal of the sanctions on Cuba. 
 
9. Niger Foreign Minister Aichatou Mindaoudou voiced the 
concerns of the African Union to avoid the inappropriate use 
of universal jurisdiction.  She asked for a more inclusive 
and transparent system to deal with global problems such as 
climate change, food security, the financial crisis, and 
conflict resolution. 
 
10. Sudanese Adviser to the President Dr. Ghazi Salahuddin 
Atabani, as Chairman of the Group of 77, criticized the 
absence of democracy in international relations, particularly 
in the Security Council.  He commented on how the Palestine 
issue has negatively affected the image of the United 
Nations.  Atabani welcomed President Obama's speech and hoped 
that it will be turned into positive actions such as the 
removal of sanctions and Sudan from the terror list. 
 
11. Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) Foreign Minister 
Alexis Thambwe Mwamba described the Middle East situation as 
tenuous and was concerned about the status of Iraq and 
Afghanistan.  He noted there has been progress on many issues 
in Africa: political dialogue in the Central African 
Republic, neighborly exchanges between Chad and Sudan, and 
the ceasefire in Burundi.  Mwamba observed that a post-Kyoto 
agreement was needed and commended Secretary-General Ban 
Ki-moon for the September 22 Summit on Climate Change.  He 
appealed for Security Council reform, such as adding an 
African country as a permanent member to reflect the 
political and numerical weight of Africa in the United 
Nations.  Mwamba explained that DRC is improving but called 
for justice with regards to sexual crimes against DRC girls 
and women. 
 
12. Oman Foreign Minister Yousef Bin Alawi Bin Abdullah 
called for a just resolution to the Palestine-Israel dispute 
and welcomed recent positive developments in Iraq.  He 
supported the Darfur peace talks and Somalia's efforts to 
achieve peace and saw positive signs towards a diplomatic 
solution between the "friendly Islamic Republic of Iran" and 
the International Atomic Energy Agency. 
 
13. Belize Foreign Minister Wilfred Elrington explained that 
the economic crisis is just now reaching his country and 
Belize is experiencing declining levels of revenue, 
diminishing remittances, and a reduction in productivity. 
According to Elrington, the current "club model" 
international system (the United Nations, World Bank, IMF, 
and WTO) is facing a crisis of legitimacy and can no longer 
be governed by just a few nations.  He worried about climate 
change and saw it as a formidable challenge.  He called for 
an end to the embargo on Cuba and for more inclusion for 
Taiwan. 
 
14. Singapore Foreign Minister George Yeo commented that the 
global outlook is not as bleak today as it was last year.  He 
warned against protectionism and against government 
intervention in markets as that could lead to more risk 
taking.  Yeo recommended the reform of the Bretton Woods 
institutions and said a balance needs to be struck between 
inclusiveness and effectiveness. 
 
15. Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Balazs urged member 
nations not to let the economic crisis distract them from 
their MDG obligations.  He called for a comprehensive 
strategy to address climate change at Copenhagen.  Balazs 
reaffirmed Hungary's support for the sovereignty of Georgia, 
stabilization in Afghanistan, non-proliferation and a two 
state solution in the Middle East. He described Iran's 
nuclear program as a serious concern "in flagrant violation 
of its international obligations."  Balazs advocated for 
human rights, as a newly elected member of the Human Rights 
Council, and for the rights of minorities. 
 
16. Bhutan Foreign Minister Daw Penjo said Bhutan's 
successful transition to a democratic constitutional monarchy 
is in need of nurturing and strengthening and highlighted 
successes such as an average eight percent GDP growth, 60 
percent literacy rate, and 90 percent health coverage. 
Bhutan will chair the April 2010 South Asian Association for 
Regional Cooperation (SAARC) meeting which will focus on 
climate change.  Penjo advocated expansion of both permanent 
and non-permanent members of the Security Council, 
specifically adding the following as permanent members India, 
Japan, Brazil, Germany and two African countries.
