Irak. Sikkerhedsrådet. Resolutionsudkast og memorandum.<br />
Sammenfatning:<br />
* Amerikansk-britisk-spansk resolutionsudkast fremlagt. Fastslår, at Irak ikke har udnyttet den<br />
sidste chance, man fik med resolution 1441, for at nedruste. 2-3 ugers forhandlinger forventes.<br />
l<br />
Forslagsstillerne indikeret, at man ikke er rede ti1 at foretage starre zndringer i teksten.<br />
-<br />
* Fransk - russisk - tysk memorandum om forstzrkede inspektioner og klar tidsplan for l<br />
gennemfarelse af udestående nedrustningsopgaver. Statte fra Kina.<br />
ik Afventende reaktioner under lukkede konsultationer. Udmeldinger forventes farst i forbindelse<br />
med nzste konsultationer, Sandsynligvis på torsdag.<br />
* UNMOVIC krzvet, at dqstruktion af Al Samoud 2-missilerne påbegyndes 1. marts.<br />
1. Udkast til resolution<br />
l<br />
under lukkede konsultationer prxsenterede UK på vegne af USA 'og Spanien vedh~ftede resolution.<br />
Forslagsstdlerne fremsatte samtidig hermed officielt resolutionen. Man forventer at genoptage lukkede<br />
konsultationer om resolutionen - og nedenstående memorandum - senere på ugen, sandsynligvis<br />
torsdag d. 27. februar.<br />
l<br />
Vedhzftet er også den britiske ambassadars talepunkter, som er offentliggjort. Han gentog synspunkter<br />
om Iraks manglende samarbejde, herunder at Irak ikke siden inspektionernes genoptagelse havde vzret<br />
i stand til at afklare et eneste substantielt punkt. Den umiddelbare baggrund og forventede videre<br />
procedure fremkommer i de tre sidste afsnit i talepunktet. UK håbede gennem resolutionen at fastholde<br />
Sikkerhedsrådets kontrol med processen og skabe konsensus om, at Irak havde valgt ikke at udnytte<br />
den sidste chance for en fredelig nedrustning. Men der var stadig tid for Irak til at vzlge rigugt. Man<br />
onskede således ikke afstemning med det samme. Der skulle vzre tid til at drafte udkastet. På den<br />
anden side var det ikke holdningen blandt forslagsstillerne, at der skulle ske substantielle zndringer til<br />
resolutionen, hvorfor man også havde valgt at fremlzgge den officielt med det samme. En konflikt<br />
kunne stadig undgås, hvis Sikkerhedsrådet gjorde det klart for Irak, hvad konsekvenserne af Iraks<br />
hidtidige forkerte valg ville vzre. [Bemzrkning: Tidligere på dagen oplyste Missionens britiske<br />
samtalepartner, at der endnu ikke var truffet beslutning om, hvorvidt resolutionsudkastet formelt skulle<br />
fremlzgges. Vurderingen er, at fremlzggelsen af nedenstående memorandum har haft en indvirkning<br />
herpå.]<br />
Efter konsultationerne anfarte den britiske ambassadar over for pressen, at resolution 1441 ikke<br />
fordrede en ny resolution, men det przsenterede resolutionsudkast ville vzre et stzrkt politisk signal<br />
om, at FN stod sammen bag kravet om, at Irak skulle afrustes. Derudover ville resolutionsudkastet ville<br />
bidrage ti1 at fokusere Sikkerhedsrådets draftelse.<br />
Som det fremgir, indeholder resolutionen kun to operative paragraffer, hvoraf operative paragraf 2 ("<br />
Remain seized.. .") er en standardparagraf. I operative paragraf 1 fastslår Sikkerhedsrådet, at Irak har<br />
I<br />
I
forspildt den sidste chance, som man fik ved resolution 1441.<br />
Argumentationen herfor prsesenteres i den prseambulsere del, i sserdeleshed i paragraf 3: "Recakng that<br />
its resolution 1441 (2002) while deciding that Iraq has been and remains in material breach of its<br />
obligations, afforded Iraq a final opportunity to comply with its disarmament obligations under relevant<br />
resolutions". Det gzlder generelt for den prseambulzre del, at det i alt overvejende grad er tale om<br />
formuleringer hentet fra resolution 1441 - formuleringer, der som bekendt blev vedtaget med<br />
konsensus. Men det bar bemserkes, at man i resolutionsudkastet ikke har medtaget formuleringer, der<br />
henviser til inspektionerne.<br />
(Eksempelvis bygger przarnbulzre paragraf 3 på formuleringer fra operative paragraffer 1 og 2 i 1441,<br />
men udelader anden del af operative paragraf 2 vedrarende etableringen af et udvidet<br />
inspektionsregime. Prseambulsere paragraf 4 bygger på operative paragraf 4 og derved også på<br />
paragrafferne 11 og 12, som foreskriver, at det er UNMOVIC og IAEA, der skal rapportere om Iraks<br />
, manglende samarbejde, på hvilket baggrund Rådet skal agere).<br />
2. Memorandum om inspektioner<br />
Frankrig har - i samarbejde med Tyskland - i den forgangne weekend udarbejdet vedhzftede<br />
memorandum vedrarende fredelig nedrustning gennem inspektioner. Det blev przsenteret af den<br />
franske ambassadar under de lukkede konsultationer på vegne af Rusland og Tyskland. Kina udtrykte<br />
statte ti1 papiret, jf. nedenfor.<br />
Tyskland przciserede under art. '19- konsultationer i EU-kredsen, at man havde valgt memorandum-<br />
modellen, fordi der ikke var behov for yderligere resolutioner. Papiret lå inden for rammerne af<br />
resolution 1441. Den tyske ambassadar gik et skridt videre i et interview med pressen og fastslog, at det<br />
lå i forlzngelse af EU7s erklsering, som alle EU-lande jo stod bag! . (Bemzr&ng: Det var vurderingen<br />
, hos flere samtalepartnere, at indholdet i papiret hurtigt kunne omformes ti1 en resolution, hvis der måtte<br />
vise sig behov for en "konkLrrerende" resolution).<br />
Memorandummet fastslår som udgangspunkt, at betingelserne for magtanvendelse ikke er til stede, idet<br />
1) der er intet bevis for, at Irak har masseadelseggelsesvåben eller kapacitet til at udvikle dem; 2)<br />
inspektionerne fungerer farst nu i fuldt omfang; 3) Iraks samarbejde er under forbedring ("is<br />
' improving")<br />
Det understreges, at et enigt Sikkerhedsråd og et aget pres på Irak er vzsentlige betingelser for at opnå<br />
en fredelig lasning.<br />
Herefter opstiller papiret en fremgangsmåde for at sikre en verificerbar, fredelig nedrustning af Irak:<br />
* UNMOWC og IAEA skal udarbejde program for de udestående nedrustningsopgaver i<br />
prioriteret rsekkefalge og med klare kriterier for, hvorledes Iraks efterlevelse kan verificeres.<br />
* Forbedrede inspektioner, jf. eksempelvis franske non-paper.<br />
* Der skal opstilles realistiske og stramme tidsfrister:<br />
- inspekt~rerne<br />
skal senest 1. marts 2003 fremlzgge arbejdsprogram for vzsentligste<br />
nedrustningsopgaver;<br />
- inspektarerne skal rapportere på regelmassig basis - hver 3. uge - om gennemf~relsen<br />
af<br />
programmet;<br />
- UNMOVIC og IAEA skal i henhold ti1 resolution 1284 lave fremskridtsrapport 120<br />
dage efter vedtagelsen af arbejdsprograrnmet; (bemarkning: under EU-koordinationen kunne<br />
forslagsstillerne ikke skabe klarhed over, hvilken 120 dages frist der henvistes ti1 i 1284 );<br />
3
Under<br />
- at Blix og ElBaradei straks skal rapportere ti1 Sikkerhedsrådet, hvis Irak enten griber ind<br />
i inspektionerne eller ikke opfjdder sine nedrustningsforpligtelser;<br />
- supplerende mader i Sikkerhedsrådet, evt. på hajt niveau, kan indkaldes når som helst.<br />
3. Konsultationerne og den videre procedure<br />
Under de lukkede konsultationer fremkom der ikke nye standpunkter hos de valgte medlemmer. Ikke<br />
overraskende indtog de fleste en afventende holdning - "we will smdy both documents before next<br />
meeting..".<br />
Kina udtrykte statte ti1 memorandummet. Der var stadig tid til en fredelig lasning. Udgangspunktet<br />
måtte vzre at sikre en humanitzr lasning. Det var przmaturt at tale om en endelig lasning.<br />
Inspektarerne var netop begyqdt at opnå resultater.<br />
l<br />
Rusland fastslog, at der ikke var behov for en ny resolution. Man afkiste formuleringen i l<br />
resolutionsudkastets przambulzre paragiaf 6 om, at Iraks erklarring indeholdt falske oplysninger. Det<br />
var ikke bevist af inspektarerne. Resolution 1441 - og inspektionerne - virkede efter hensigten, hvis det<br />
var nedrustning, der var m'ålsztningen. Hvis målsztningen var regimeskifte, forholdt sagen sig<br />
naturligvis anderledes. l<br />
I<br />
konsultationerne havde der vzret en vis diskussion af rapporteringsfrister. Der var utilfredshed<br />
med, at 7. marts figurerede som en dato, eftersom inspektarerne havde frem til 27. marts til at aflzgge<br />
rapport om vzsentligste udestående nedrustningsopgaver. Dette måtte vzre op til inspektarerne at<br />
fastslå, om sidstnzvnte rapportering kunne fremrykkes. (Der synes at vzre en vis forvirring om<br />
rapporteringsfristerne. I henhold til 1284 skal inspektarerne pr. 1. marts lave en kvartalsmsessig<br />
statusrapport samt senest p.' 27. marts fremlzgge en oversigt over "key remaining disarmement tasks").<br />
For indevzrende synes alene de genoptagne konsultationer på torsdag d. 27. februar at ligge fast.<br />
Fastlzggelsen af tidspunkterne for UNMOVIC/IAEA's rapportering forventes tidligst at ske i<br />
begyndelsen af naste uge, hvor Guinea har overtaget formandskabet for Sikkerhedsrådet. For så vidt<br />
angår afstemning om resolutionsudkastet er vurderingen, at forslagsstillerne opererer med en tidsramme<br />
på 2-3 uger.<br />
4. Destruktion af Al Samoud 2 missiler mv.<br />
Vedhzftet fremsendes det i pressen omtalte brev af 21. februar 2003 fra Blix til Dr. Al Sa'adi, Irak, om<br />
skrotning af missiler. Det fremgår heraf, at Irak skal forelzgge UNMOVIC bevis for, at alle Al Samoud<br />
2 missiler samt relaterede komponenter er blevet destrueret. Destruktionen, som skal udfares af Irak<br />
under UNMOVICs tilsyn, skal vzre påbegyndt senest den 1. marts 2003. (The appropriate<br />
arrangements should be made so that the destruction process can commence by 1 March 2003.)<br />
Brev fra Blix<br />
210203.pdf<br />
I<br />
Greenstocks Memorandum (Irak IRAK<br />
stemmigt konkluderede, at missilerne har en stmre r~kkevidde,<br />
end den i resolution 687<br />
tilladte, jf. mismail 0159 af 14. februar 2003. Endvidere krzver UNMOVIC destruktion af de<br />
l
genopbyggede stabehaller, som vil kunne producere motorer til missiler med en rzekkevidde på mere<br />
end 150 km.<br />
,<br />
Yderligere tekniske oplysninger og undersagelser udestår, far UNMOVIC kan trzffe beslutning'om,<br />
hvorvidt Al Fatah rnissilsystemet også udgm et brud på resolutionerne.<br />
Det bemxrkes, at den franske ambassadar ti1 pressen efter dagens konklusioner slog fast, at fristen i<br />
Blix' skrivelse og destruktionen var obligatorisk for Irak. Adspurgt af pressen om Husseins udtalelser<br />
under et interview med CBS skulle have udtalt, at Irak ikke ville destruere rnissilerne svarede den<br />
britiske ambassadar, at han stxrkt vdle opfordre Irak til at efterleve fristen i Blix' brev.<br />

Iraq: Presentatbn of UWU CISpanish<br />
Draft Securiqr Councii R<br />
By Sir Jeremy Greenstock, UK Permnent ReprasenUWe,<br />
Counal bnsuttations, 24 February 2003,<br />
- I shouid like to explain cerefully to Council colleagues why Viis text is being tabled at<br />
this time and in this fom, and what actbnlwe are then proposing.<br />
- The CO-Sponsors are convinoed thdt lt-aq is not achieving. nor intending to achieve,<br />
the objective ol SCR 1441. 1441 set out that obj8ctive in s W and wmpelling tema:<br />
(OPZ) "bringing to ful1 and verified the disamament p ablished by<br />
SCR 687". 1441 attractsd warld a just because of Its atter and the<br />
ss which led to its adoptiorr, but because its unani message represented a<br />
powerful signal that the UN was in controi. The S ncil was challenged by the<br />
U§ President to ralse iCs game on its most difficutt agenda item: and, by adopting 1441,<br />
it dM so. The Resolution set out the most stringent temis ever decided upon by ttie<br />
United Nations for the proces8 of disarmarnent. But them was also an dive branch in<br />
1441 : Iraq was given @very .incentive to rspair its documented non-compliancs.<br />
- Today, 15 weeks on from 1441, we are no further advanced toymrds that objedive of<br />
oomplete disamment. Indeed, nor is Iraq taking adequate steps to corred its wider<br />
breaches of 687, including its continued support for terrorism. The terms of Resolution<br />
1441 are not being respe , and in parts af the current debate not evm being<br />
re mem be red.<br />
- 1441 deplored 'lraq's past aviour. What we all asksd of Iraq was, firs4 a marked<br />
change from its denial and deception of 1091 to 2002, which had already placed B in<br />
matetial breach of relevant resolutions; and second, ful1 compliance with and<br />
moperation w$h the irnplementation 01 1441. In other words, a decision by Iraq, visibly<br />
and unrnlstakabty. to dhrest d Weapons of Mass Deslruction imrnedbtely,<br />
unwndbnally and acthiely. That means bringing prosaibed material8 or pmgramrnes<br />
to the notie al inspecton and providing a ful! and credible account of Iraq's WMD<br />
adbity backed up by dwurnentary evidenw and testimony from personnel.<br />
- What 1441 was not was the establishment ol a detective or a containment exercise.<br />
Again, the objecti've was to bring disamament to 'wmpletion'<br />
field of WMD are instruments for the effedive delivery end ve n of that complete<br />
disarmarnent. This has ben #e ase sincs 1991. SCR 687<br />
deda re the location, amounts and types of proscribed items. Iraq was asked to yieM<br />
possession of them to UN inspectors tor destrudon, removal or rendering harmless.<br />
This time, 12 years on, mere eaw be ris rebeat into procrastination or parliil resuh. The<br />
final opportunity atlorded in SCR 1411 was not for ihe Counul to slide bad< into<br />
SS, but for imq to remgnise e new dekmination in the Securily Coundl to<br />
complete the business in a way whlch represented a complete change of attitude in<br />
BagMaB.<br />
I
- That has not happened. Let me sey why we at8 convind that Iraq has decided to<br />
mmáin in defiancs of the UN:<br />
- Firs$, look at the immediste m-up to ths return af inspedom. In 2002, Iraq began<br />
seriously to dis~cs the issue of inspectbns only when it realised that we, as tha<br />
international cornmunity, muld nat give up on mplete disarmament. For months. Iraq<br />
sought to haggk with the Counal, to set preconditions (the '19 questiansn), and to<br />
negotiate away its non nce of the past. lraq only ag four days<br />
after President Bush's s af 12 September in a cynical attempt to any new<br />
resolution strengthening aem.<br />
- Second. we hoped - certafnly the United Kingdom hoped - that the adoption of 4441<br />
wouid see a change af heart by the Iraqi regime. Iraq's 13 November letter following the<br />
adoption of 1441, ful1 of tirades and complaints. and grudgingly a pung mat muld<br />
'deal with" the resolution, was w ort of the wholehearted cumm*rtment to voluntary<br />
disarrnament we had hoped for. r 23 November letter on how 1441 "~ntradicts'<br />
international law underiined this.<br />
Then Game the responses to the detalled requitements of 1441<br />
- Iraq has produced a 12,000 page declaration that is indisputably inadequate. Dr Blix<br />
called I 'rich in volume but poor in new information .. . and pradically devoid d new<br />
evidente";<br />
- Iraq has done evetything possible to prevent unrestricted Interviews. withwt Iraqi<br />
minders. eavesdropping, or intimidation of potential intervie . UNMOVIC has so far<br />
been abk to oonduct only hree private interview - all of which took place with people<br />
volunteered by the iraqis and all of which tmk place in #e irnmediate runup to Dr Blix's<br />
last visit to Baghdad. Since then nothing;<br />
'<br />
- Iraq has dragged b feet on as many other elernents of p ural mperatK>n as<br />
possible. lnstead of serious mllaboration wiV, the inspectors, Iraq has tried to make the<br />
proces into a lighUy monitored media drcus. with demonstraton ready to herass<br />
inspectors if they come too close to hidden material. As Dr BIU! toid the Council on 27<br />
Jsnuary, 'Demonstrations and outbursts ... are unlikeiy to occur without initiativ8 or<br />
enmuragement from the avthorities. We must ask ourselves what the motives may be<br />
for these eventsw;<br />
- Iraq's CO-operation on substanw has been non-existent. Since ins s resumed<br />
UNMOVIC have not been aMe to close a single outstanding issue. We not knw<br />
what happened to 8,500 litres of anairax, 2.160 kilograms of bacterial growth media. 360<br />
tonnes of bulk chernical warfare agent. 3.000 tonner of precursor chemicals. 1.5 tonnes<br />
o! VX neme agent, and 6,SM aemial bmbs- ve never had satisfadory answem<br />
about the entire scape of Iraq's BW programme. tkre are now even more<br />
unresolved questions: for exarnple, why has Iraq developed a prohibited missile<br />
programme and why has it refurbished equiprnent - rocket easttng chambers and<br />
chernical processors - destroyed Dy UNSCOM? Does this show anything other than
clear jntent to restart prohibited programmes? lnstead of providing ful] dommentation.<br />
induding admlnistratlve documente relating to personnei and funding. Iraq has providd<br />
substantivs new sviden-. It has sattered its documents into private huses and<br />
vehides to hide the scope of its programmes and to provide a basis for extending them<br />
Men the pressure is off. And it has In public pretended that Mre are no wbtanding<br />
issues, even though many uf these have been well known for years.<br />
- Thls continues the 12-year pattem ol lraq seeking to decelve the Councii: an all tac<br />
farniliar pattem of Iraq wing to get us to focus m smal1 concessions d prucess. rather<br />
than on the bi$ picture. The cerdinal point is ttlat there is no sernblance sf<br />
