I would like to say a special word of welcome and thanks to Special Representative of the SecretaryGeneral Wallström and her team for their extremely significant contribution to the implementation of resolutions 1820 (2008) and 1888 (2009). Let me also express our great appreciation to the Department of Peacekeeping Operations, and in particular the UnderSecretary-General for Peacekeeping Operations and the Military Advisor, for their efforts to strengthen protection and response in the field.
