I felt there was a very constructive discussion.

If they are to meet Thursday in Berlin, one would expect as the most likely ...that there will be no agreement before that. It's not easy.

As we meet today, Afghanistan is the site of the world's worst humanitarian crisis. Hunger and displacement in Afghanistan are worse than anywhere else in the world.

I think there's general sense that these comments come rather late in the process.

There are those who want to conclude the Security Council reform is over. They are mistaken. Reform is a process and moves in a continuum step by step.

I believe the situation is getting very, very serious. Winter is coming very soon, and the international humanitarian community needs to act very quickly.
