SYRIA: BAN BRIEFED BY UN DISARMAMENT CHIEF ON LATEST DEVELOPMENTS - UN
SPOKESPERSONNew York, Aug 31 2013 3:00PMSecretary-General Ban Ki-moon
today met with the top United Nations disarmament official, just back
from Damascus, on the chemical weapons investigation and the latest
developments in Syria. The meeting comes as the UN inspection team
arrived in the Netherlands earlier today to carry out a rapid analysis
of samples gathered.

UN Spokesperson Martin Nesirky
<"http://www.un.org/sg/offthecuff/index.asp?nid=2960 ">told reporters
in New York that Mr. Ban met with UN High Representative for
Disarmament Affairs Angela Kane for over an hour.

"Ms. Kane briefed the Secretary-General on her trip and on the current
status of the investigation," Mr. Nesirky said, adding that that she
thanked the Syrian Government and opposition for their cooperation
during this mission. Ms. Kane had been in Damascus, at Mr. Ban's
request, meeting with the Syrian Government to facilitate access for
the team of inspectors, who arrived on 18 August.
"Ms. Kane reported that the mission was able to conduct a wide range
of fact-finding activities pertaining to the 21 August incident in the
Ghouta area," he added.

The inspection team, led by Swedish scientist Dr. Åke Sellström, is
now in The Hague, the headquarters of the Organization for the
Prohibition of Chemical Weapon (OPCW), which is assisting the probe,
along with the UN World Health Organization (WHO).

The team will spend the day collating the samples and other evidence
prior to sending them for testing in laboratories in Europe.

As soon as the team receives the results of the laboratory analysis of
its samples, the conclusions will be transmitted to Mr. Ban who "looks
forward to receiving the findings as soon as possible" so they can be
promptly presented to the 193 Member States and to the Security
Council, Mr. Nesirky said.

Mr. Ban spoke briefly to Mr. Sellström earlier today by telephone to
thank him for his work, the spokesperson said. Mr. Ban will be briefed
in more detail by him tomorrow. Mr. Nesirky also noted that Mr. Ban is
in touch with Ambassador María Cristina Perceval of Argentina, which
holds the rotating Security Council presidency for August, and with
Ambassador Gary Quinlan of Australia, which will take the presidency
in September. Aug 31 2013 3:00PM
