The Security Council, as you know, is holding its first consultations of the month, and members agreed this morning to adopt a programme of work for October. The new Council President, Ambassador Zhang of China, will talk to you in this room about the Council’s work over the coming month, as soon as the consultations are finished. We were initially told that that could be about 12:30, but my understanding is the consultations are going a bit longer, so he’ll join you as soon as the consultations are finished.
The Council also heard a briefing by the Chair of the Sanctions Committee, dealing with the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, and they just heard a briefing on the UN Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, from the head of that Mission, Alan Doss. He talked to them about the disengagement process in the Kivus, in the eastern DRC. And Mr. Doss will also speak to you in this room, following the briefing by the Security Council President.
