This should be done in co-operation with the member states. The United Nations could, as a first step in this direction, start a more active dialogue concerning the individual contributions. Also in this area the United Nations needs more manpower. One man on Stand-by system is totally inadequate. Dialogue with member states is the key word, it takes time, but it is necessary.
Bilateral dialogue is desirable in advance of a request on troop contributions.
And an active dialogue could help to improve the rapid deployment capabilities within the Stand-by system. The UN could also look more systematically at improving the Police component to the system. I welcome this development. The key word in this connection is rapid reaction in order to avoid that a precarious peace develops into open conflict. Mr. Chairman, Looking back at recent developments, I would like to complement the DPKO for the progress within public information for peacekeeping mission.
