  1. President, I would like to congratulate Chile on the way you have organized and facilitated this meeting of the Council. Since this is the first time that I address the Council, I would like to greet all members, whether permanent or non- permanent, former or new, and I wish them courage, determination and success in discharging their responsibilities.

  2. We likewise support the recommendations for establishing dialogue with the parties to the conflicts and the commitments resulting from this, to the extent possible. Finally, we support the final recommendations contained in the report of the Secretary-General, in particular, the recommendations dealing with concrete action decided on by the Security Council, with appeals for compliance with norms, with condemnation of violations committed and implementation of targeted measures, and with the role of the International Criminal Court in pursuing the perpetrators. Before I conclude, I wish to reiterate the thanks already addressed this morning to the French delegation for its active role on this issue. And, truly concluding at this point, Mr.

  3. The two lists that appear in the annexes to the report (S/2003/1053) and that include more than 50 groups and factions or even, it seems, the armed forces of Member States of our Organization, are very disturbing. Of course, we are aware of all the difficulties encountered in trying to put an end to the conflicts that lead to all of these crimes and in trying to put an end the crimes themselves, and we understand that action on these issues needs to be varied, ongoing, persistent and coordinated. To that end, we support, of course, the fundamental principles that should be implemented in the area of the disarmament, demobilization, rehabilitation and reintegration of children, both boys and girls, whether disabled or not.

  4. We noted with satisfaction some progress in the report, particularly in defining norms, drafting reports, establishing aid and monitoring mechanisms, raising awareness among the public and authorities, continuing negotiations and drawing up peace agreements, working to promote child protection and reintegration, and in the development of the situation of some countries - unfortunately rare - all of that often with the valuable participation of non-governmental organizations. However, as the Council is aware, children continue to be killed, wounded, mutilated, tortured, raped, prostituted, abducted, displaced, terrorized, forcibly recruited, forced to become killers themselves, and so on. As the report stresses, all of this takes place in a general climate of impunity.

  5. Mr. Borghini (Monaco) (spoke in French): The principality of Monaco is always very mindful of anything that affects children. We have taken note of the important report of the Secretary-General (S/2003/1053), and we thank him for it. We also thank his Special Representative and the Executive Director of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) for their briefings this morning and their work.
