我国代表团感到关切的是，12月12日，土耳其总统宣布在叙利亚对库尔德人民保卫部队发起新的攻势，安卡拉认为这支部队是分裂主义恐怖组织。因此，科特迪瓦呼吁土耳其当局优先开展谈判，避免爆发新的暴力，导致大规模流离失所现象，加剧已经令人担忧的人道主义局势。此外，根据第2254(2015)号决议，我国呼吁叙利亚各方创造必要条件，使难民和流离失所者能够自愿、体面和安全地返回家园，并使受冲突影响的地区能够实现恢复。
My delegation is concerned about the announcement by the Turkish President on 12 December of the launching of a new offensive in Syria against the Kurdish People’s Protection Units, which Ankara considers a separatist terrorist organization. Côte d’Ivoire therefore calls on the Turkish authorities to prioritize negotiations so as to avoid a new outbreak of violence that would lead to massive displacement of people and exacerbate the already alarming humanitarian situation. Furthermore, in accordance with resolution 2254 (2015), my country calls on the Syrian parties to create the conditions necessary to enable refugees and displaced persons to return voluntarily and in dignity and safety to their home areas and to enable conflict-affected areas to recover.
