Speaker 1, representing Sierra Leone at a U.N. press stakeout, said his country "fully supports the United States draft resolution on Gaza" that the Security Council adopted, and described the text as endorsing a comprehensive ceasefire plan and measures to stabilize Gaza.

He said the resolution's most significant elements are provisions to establish an international stabilization force on the ground and a political-administrative "Board of Peace" to provide transitional governance. "These measures, an impartial security force on the ground, and a political administrative board, are crucial for stabilizing Gaza, protecting civilians, and creating an environment in which meaningful peace can take root," Speaker 1 said.

Sierra Leone commended what the transcript records as U.S. leadership and the work of mediators including Egypt, Qatar and Turkey. The representative said the ceasefire and recent hostage releases were possible "without the tireless efforts by the mediators together with our collective advocacy in the Security Council." He called on the international community to back the adopted resolution and stressed the need to translate Security Council language into practical support on the ground.

The transcript records the representative calling for international cooperation to sustain the ceasefire and for implementation of the resolution's stabilization and governance mechanisms. The press stakeout transcript does not include a Security Council vote tally or a roll-call list; the adopted resolution is described in the transcript as the "United States draft" that the Council adopted but the document number and vote record were not provided there.

Next steps noted in the stakeout were political-level implementation and operational questions about how any stabilization force would be composed and scheduled; the representative said at this stage it is "too early to propose or prescribe" composition or timelines and urged support from all stakeholders to sustain the ceasefire.
