The Conference on The Operational Role of the OSCE in South-Eastern Europe: Contributing to Regional Stability in the Balkans addressed one of the most urgent problems in Europe today. During the 1990s, a series of serious conflicts broke out that devastated the region. The commitment of the international community to stabilising South-Eastern Europe is considerable. We are confronted with the challenge of establishing democracy, the rule of law and respect for human rights, in particular the rights of minorities.
The OSCE is making a major contribution to this effort. In the countries of the region, its Missions promote stability by helping government authorities implement and then stick to their obligations. In Brussels, this conference brought OSCE field experience and academic expertise together and facilitated a fruitful exchange of experiences and analyses.
Success in this common endeavour is far from sure. The conference was right to draw our attention to the historical dimension of the issues at stake and to point out how difficult it is to open up established authoritarian power structures to democratic forces. Elections are only an appropriate means in situations where a basic and functioning framework respecting the rule of law has been established.
The situation remains worryingly uncertain in a number of States in the region. The failure of the Belgrade government to lead the country away from the totalitarian structures of the past and towards democracy and solid co-operation with its partners both in and outside the region has undermined the stability of South-Eastern Europe. Respect for minorities - in particular in the context of Kosovo - is one of the keys to peace and security. We must continue to watch events closely and to ensure that the international community gives clear and coherent signals.
The Stability Pact for South-Eastern Europe, which has been placed under the auspices of the OSCE, is the forum for the efficient determination and coordination of bilateral and multilateral measures. It focuses international support on pushing through political and economic reforms in the region, in combination with the establishment of reliable structures in the countries concerned. We must follow up a successful start with projects in order to consolidate and build on the transformations that have been started.
We will only achieve our objectives in South-Eastern Europe if the countries concerned, their government authorities and local civil society acquire full ownership of the transformation processes. A paternalistic approach imposed from outside would be out of place. In our efforts, we have to assist the countries of the region to implement the commitments they themselves have entered into. Help should only be given when and for as long as needed, and we should envisage handing over responsibilities to local players right from the start.
I would like to thank the conference organisers most sincerely for their initiative and commitment. This meeting was the successful result of co-operation between several partners. It has been made possible thanks to the material support of the Belgian authorities and that of the Swiss Federal Department of Defence, Civil Protection and Sport as part of its Partnership for Peace programme. Experts from different areas were gathered together, and their deliberations will make an important contribution to meeting the serious challenges facing Europe today.

The OSCE Istanbul Summit has just been concluded. The underlying purpose of this meeting was to continue the adaptation of the OSCE to new challenges, to emphasise its primary role in European crisis management, and to strengthen cooperation with other security organisations. The decision to establish Rapid Expert Assistance and Co-operation Teams, REACT, will greatly enhance the ability of the OSCE to respond quickly to demands for assistance and to implement large civilian field operations, as will the establishment of an Operations Centre within the OSCE secretariat. With the Istanbul decisions the OSCE is even better placed to contribute to answering the demand for integrated crisis management involving civilian as well as military components.
