MP/pt 24-25 The President: I thank the representative of China for the kind words he addressed to me.

I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Romania.

I pledge the full support of my country for the draft resolution before us.

Our position is based on the firm belief that neither the use nor the threat of force should be resorted to for the settlement of international disputes. All disputes between States, irrespective of their nature, should be solved only by peaceful means. We are confident that implementation of the draft resolution we are called upon to adopt will restore peace in the region. We express the hope that the two States involved in the conflict will do their utmost to respect in good faith the principles of the United Nations Charter.

I now resume my functions as President of the Council.
