“It must be an ongoing and coordinated effort that takes into account the structural causes and phenomena that fuel terrorism and violent extremism.”

“Aware of that imperative, the members of the Economic Community of West African States have decided to hold an extraordinary summit on the threats posed by terrorism to regional peace and security on 14 September. Cote d'Ivoire remains convinced that eradicating terrorism demands holistic solutions within the framework of a multilateral approach. It therefore welcomed the Franco-German position articulated on the side lines of the Group of Seven summit to promote broader support for the Group of Five for the Sahel within a security and stability partnership in the Sahel aimed at expanding the scope of its work. In conclusion, my country hopes that our shared commitment to combating terrorism will be commensurate with the magnitude of the challenges posed by the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant.”

“The fight against terrorism and violent extremism can only produce the desired results if it is supported by national and regional strategies to eradicate youth poverty and unemployment, as well as transnational organized crime. To that end, it is essential to develop urgent responses to the social demands of the population and to provide better job opportunities to young people. Such a strategy is particularly valid for West Africa and the Sahel, geographical areas that have seen a worrying increase in activities of the Islamic State and its complex network of affiliates, which take advantage of the porous borders, States' weak capacities and community rivalries. The strengthening of international cooperation and the pooling of resources must remain the guiding principles underpinning our action against terrorism in all its forms.”

“For the fight against Da'esh to be comprehensive and effective we will have to take into account a range of issues, including accountability for crimes committed, the phenomenon of radicalization and the repatriation of children of foreign fighters, of whom, according to UNICEF, there are about 29,000 in Syria, including 20,000 who are believed to be from Iraq. C6te d'Ivoire is of the view that the crimes committed by Da'esh in Iraq and Syria must not go unpunished and therefore reiterates its support for the United Nations Investigative Team to Promote Accountability for Crimes Committed by Da'esh/Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, whose work should safeguard the right of victims to justice as part of a fair trial.”

“Cete d'Ivoire also welcomes the launch of the Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact, as well as the approval of the revitalized structure of the related working groups and the 2019-2020 workplans. In addition, my delegation appreciates the support of UNOCT and CTED in strengthening the legal and institutional capacities of States and regional organizations. Cote d'Ivoire therefore encourages them to promote meetings designed to promote exchanges of experience and good practices in counter-terrorism.”

“In the face of the global threat posed by Da'esh, counter-terrorism strategies must, in order to be effective, be part of a multilateral approach based on enhanced cooperation among all actors in the fight against terrorism. In that regard, it is the responsibility of the United Nations, and more specifically the Security Council, to be at the forefront of our common action to halt the spread of this scourge. My country therefore welcomes the adoption in 2019 of two key texts in the fight against terrorism, namely, resolution 2462 (2019), which recommends in particular the adoption of national and regional legislation to remove sources of terrorist financing; and resolution 2482 (2019) which, inter alia, establishes a direct link between terrorists and organized crime.”

“Worse still, its ideology, rhetoric and scope of action continue to extend beyond the borders of the two countries, thereby posing an ongoing threat to the security and stability of our States. Indeed, this terrorist organization remains very active throughout the world, demonstrating its resilience thanks to new technologies and various devices that allow it to bypass international technical and financial control mechanisms. The relevant reports of the Secretary-General, the ninth of which is before the Council for consideration, draw our attention to the extent of the threat and the urgency of coordinating our actions to curb or even eradicate this phenomenon.”

“Mr. Bieke (cote d'Ivoire) (spoke in French): My delegation welcomes this briefing to consider the report of the Secretary-General on the threat posed by ISIL (Da'esh) to international peace and security and the range of United Nations efforts in support of Member States in countering the threat (S/2019/612). It congratulates Mr. Voronkov, Under-Secretary-General and Head ofthe Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT), and Ms. Coninsx, Executive Director of the Counter- Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED), on their enlightening briefings. Da'esh represents one of today's greatest security challenges for the international community and, above all, for the Security Council. Despite its militarily defeat in Syria and Iraq, Da'esh still retains its ability to cause harm.”
