This is a small sampling of comments from the 97th, 98th, 99th, 100th and 101st plenary meetings of the 63rd General Assembly. A total of 94 delegations spoke during the debate and expressed a range of reactions to the multifaceted political philosophy described in the Secretary-General's report on implementing the responsibility to protect.

The International Center for the Responsibility to Protect has collected full transcripts of most of the statements and made them available online.
