中方重申，根据安理会相关决议，余留机制应是一个高效率的小型临时机构，其职能和规模将随时间推移逐渐缩减。中方希望，余留机制继续依循安理会有关决议要求开展活动。
China wishes to reiterate that, pursuant to the Council resolutions adopted on this matter, the IRMCT is a small, temporary and efficient structure, the function and size of which will diminish over time. We hope to see the Mechanism continue to carry out its activities in accordance with Council resolutions in this regard.
