	5040th UN Security Council Meeting (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The Security Council is called upon to respond to the request of the members of the African Union and to fully support their efforts to monitor the implementation of resolution 1556 (2004) and the agreements reached with the United Nations.
		Nevertheless, since a key element of the Council’s work at present is support for the African Union in extending its deployment in Darfur — reflecting the wishes of the African Union and of the Secretary-General, as well as the broad consensus view — the Chinese delegation refrained from blocking the adoption of the draft resolution.
		We felt that the reference in paragraph 14 to the petroleum sector, with respect to the threat of sanctions, lessened the prospect of a consensus, which might have been broader if the sponsors of the resolution had agreed to drop the reference, given the controversy and the controversial interpretations to which it may be subject.

	Prevention of armed conflict - Report of the Secretary-General
		In the light of the Security Council debate that has emphasized the need to make peace-building part of a comprehensive conflict prevention strategy, preventive peace-building could be made a focus for a meaningful strategic interaction between the Council and the Assembly.
		The basis for preventive action by the Security Council can be seen in Chapter VI of the Charter of the United Nations, which stresses the necessity to seek a solution to the continuance of a dispute or situation likely to endanger the maintenance of international peace and security.
		The Security Council may also wish to consider using multidisciplinary expert support in its fact-finding missions to potential conflict areas so that all substantive areas can be incorporated into the elaboration of a comprehensive prevention strategy.
