然而，我们并不认为，将部队从阿卜耶伊地区调往联合边界核查与监测机制是使该机制充分运作起来的正确做法。减少该地区兵力将造成严重影响。我们强烈建议该地区兵力保持不变。此外，我们感到难以支持以减少兵力为代价部署警察部队的建议。当然，部署警察有可取之处，在设想的阿卜耶伊警务部门缺失的情况下尤其如此。但是，我们认为，在2012年协议未得到充分执行的情况下就减少该地区兵力，此举为时过早。
However, we do not think that transferring troops from the Abyei box to the JBVMM is the right approach to making the Mechanism fully functional. Reducing the troop levels in the box would have serious implications. We strongly advise that the troop levels remain unchanged. Additionally, we find it difficult to support the proposal to deploy police forces at the expense of troop levels. Certainly, there is merit in the deployment of police, especially in the absence of the envisaged Abyei Police Service, but we believe that it is premature to reduce troop levels in the box in the absence of the full implementation of the 2012 agreements.
