  1. Egypt also commends, in that regard, the African Mining Vision 2050, adopted by the African Union in 2008, as well as the Protocol against the Illegal Exploitation of Natural Resources in the Great Lakes Region. Finally, Egypt underlines the importance of regional approaches to address the exploitation of shared natural resources in order to transform these resources into a force for regional peace and mutual cooperation.

  2. The efforts of the Peacebuilding Commission to ensure that extractive industries located in countries in post-conflict situations contribute to stability and socioeconomic development cannot be over emphasized. Our efforts to ensure that extractive industries in countries in post-conflict situations contribute to stability and socioeconomic development cannot enjoy full success without the collaboration of all stakeholders, including the international financial institutions and the private sector. The World Development Report 2011 - "Conflict, security and development", prepared by the World Bank Group, emphasized that building capable and legitimate institutions is the key to breaking the cycle ofviolence and avoiding a relapse into conflict in fragile and conflict-affected countries.

  3. The international community's response to the question of cutting the link between natural resources and armed conflict, particularly through initiatives such as the Kimberley Process and the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, reflects the importance of curbing the illegal exploitation of natural resources in order to support efforts to achieve peace, stability and sustainable development. As a member of the Group of Friends of Natural Resources, Egypt lends its unequivocal support to those initiatives and their goals. The United Nations is contributing to those efforts through its conflict prevention, peacekeeping and peacebuilding efforts. Supporting national capacity-building in the management of natural resources is becoming an integral part of the mandate of peacekeeping operations.

  4. Grynspan for their valuable participation and introductory statements. Our debate today raises a very serious question on how to ensure that non-renewable natural resources are a means for growth and development rather than a source of instability and conflict. Conflicts are the product of multiple and complex factors. However, many conflict situations are linked to competition over natural resources. Countries in post-conflict situations are doing their best to develop efficient and accountable national structures and to build national capacity to manage their natural resources. Those efforts should be fully supported by the international community, including through technical and financial assistance when needed.
