Thank you, Mr. President, and thank you, Under-Secretary-General Feltman, for your briefing.
I'll begin with Syria, where the horrifying situation is getting worse. Escalating violence, driven by the Asad regime, has killed tens of thousands and displaced millions of Syrians. And there's no clearer demonstration of the situation's threat to regional peace and security than the Syrian government's recent shelling of Ackakale, which this Council rightfully condemned. As the violence and atrocities mount, the United States will not wait for all members of this Council to get on the right side of history. Together with our allies, we're supporting the opposition as it moves toward an inclusive, democratic transition. We're further pressuring the regime, and we are addressing the growing humanitarian needs in the region. At the same time, we continue to support the efforts of Joint Special Representative Brahimi to find a durable solution to this crisis.

Chilean National Day and Army Day are normally celebrated the 18th and 19th of September, respectively. However, the official reception to celebrate the dates in Israel was held back by the Chilean Embassy to accommodate the arrival of the 21 sail navy ship to the Port of Haifa, giving everyone an opportunity to share the experience of visiting the Latin American country's vessel as well as an important part of its culture. For this purpose, the ship remained open for public visits during its stay in Haifa. The Esmeralda Training Ship is used by the Chilean Navy to enhance professional training of its future officers and Non Commissioned Officers; it has sailed 30 thousand nautical miles for nearly 9 months and will conclude its second tour around the world in January of 2013.
