  3. We all need to make additional efforts, to work to prevent and to counter it and to give to its victims relief and new opportunities to rebuild their lives. In that regard, we recently contributed to the United Nations Voluntary Trust Fund for Victims of Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I wish to remind all speakers to limit their statements to no more than four minutes in order to enable the Council to carry out its work expeditiously. Delegations with lengthy statements are kindly requested to circulate their texts in writing and to deliver a condensed version when speaking in the Chamber. I wish to inform all concerned that we will be carrying on this open debate through the lunch hour, as we have a large number of participants.

  4. As stated in the political declaration on the implementation of the United Nations Global Plan of Action to Combat Trafficking in Persons, adopted by the General Assembly at the high-level meeting in September, human trafficking is often more likely to happen in situations where social, economic cultural, political and other factors make people more vulnerable to trafficking. We should therefore insist on a comprehensive approach aimed at addressing high-risk factors, such as poverty, unemployment, inequality, humanitarian emergencies, social exclusion and marginalization. Human trafficking is a multidimensional phenomenon that entails threats to respect for fundamental human rights and to international peace and security. For those reasons, the Council should continue to keep that issue high on its agenda.

  5. Equally, the response of States should be based on a common understanding of trafficking in persons and a widely accepted legal framework. We therefore confirm and support the importance of a universal ratification and implementation of the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children. Increased international, regional and bilateral cooperation with countries of origin and transit of migrants is of paramount importance, as many speakers have underscored. As a concrete contribution to that process, our country decided to support the two projects implemented by UNODC aimed at enhancing legal cooperation in the fight against traffickers in West, North and East Africa.

  6. Trafficking in persons is a complex phenomenon and a crime with a global dimension that must be prevented and countered through an effective and coordinated response by the entire international community. In fact, as highlighted in the Global Report on Trafiicking in Persons of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in 2016, within the massive migratory movements of the past few years - the largest ever seen since the Second World War - figures related to the exploitation by smugglers and traffickers of vulnerable children, women and men are increasingly concerning. International efforts should follow a victim-centred, gender-specific and child-sensitive approach and should take into consideration the links between transnational organized crime, terrorism and trafficking networks.

  7. The resolution also endorses the comprehensive approach promoted by the Secretary-General to make the United Nations system's action more effective and coherent and, to that end, opens the way to further discussions on the role of United Nations peacekeeping and special political missions in supporting host State efforts' to prevent and combat trafficking in persons. As proven by our action as a member ofthe Council, we strongly condemn trafficking in persons, especially when it involves women and children, and we remain on the front lines in combating it, as we do on a daily basis in the Mediterranean, while prioritizing the protection of human rights.

  8. It also moves forward by emphasizing the urgency for Member States to strengthen identification, registration, protection and assistance for displaced persons falling prey to trafficking. Timely detection of routes and victims is key to effectively countering this plight while addressing the specific needs of the most vulnerable, especially women and children, who make up the vast majority of the victims of trafficking. The importance that the Council attaches to a victim- centred approach is also testified by the special attention given to unaccompanied and separated children, whose increasing number is a matter of great concern.

  9. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the Under Secretary of State of Italy. This open debate today confirms the consistent commitment of the Security Council to effectively address the issue oftrafficking in persons and the serious violations of human rights related to it. The unanimous adoption of resolution 2388 (2017) is a concrete step forward in preventing and countering this scourge. The Security Council thereby builds upon resolution 2331 (2016), and the comprehensive report (S/2017/939) of the Secretary-General on the implementation of this resolution to reaffirm the paramount importance of aligning national legislation to the international legal framework set by the Palermo Convention and other relevant international instruments.
