我要谈的第一点涉及文件的编写。为了编写该文件，与其他代表团进行了接触，尽管这可能是出于善意，但这与进行谈判是不一样的。仅仅为了对文本进行讨论并使我们的关切得到考虑，就付出了巨大努力，这是一个令人担忧的迹象。我们真诚希望，这不是在这样一个重要问题上取得进展的办法，秘书长在其报告中强调的团结、信任和广泛参与的原则将在下一阶段占上风。
The first point I would like to raise concerns the preparation of the document, which was done through a process of outreach to other delegations that — well-intentioned as it might have been — is not the same as engaging in negotiations. The fact that it took substantial efforts just to hold discussions about the text and to have our concerns considered is a worrisome sign. We sincerely hope that will not be the way forward on such an important issue and that the principles of solidarity, trust and broad participation stressed by the Secretary-General in his report will prevail in the next phase.
