  1. Before concluding my remarks, I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate that, as a country that has a long and painful experience in the fight against terrorism and continues to face an imminent threat from several terrorist organizations, Turkey firmly believes that the international community must stand united, show mutual solidarity and cooperate against terrorism without making any distinction between terrorist organizations.

  2. We applaud the work done by United Nations entities, especially the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, to improve the capacity of States requesting support. For its part, Turkey has contributed to the capacity-building activities by providing training to the officials of other Governments based on their needs, by making financial contributions to UNODC-led programmes and by hosting high-level international meetings. We will continue to support such activities.

  3. Operational and timely intelligence-sharing, cooperation among law enforcement agencies and formal judicial cooperation are also of vital importance. Moreover, we can effectively address these interlinked challenges only in a comprehensive and cross-dimensional manner, while fully respecting the principles of the United Nations, in particular those in the field of human rights and fundamental freedoms. The United Nations is naturally positioned at the centre of our common efforts on counter-terrorism. The United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy provides the backbone for both national and international work to be done in this area. We support the instrumental role played by all United Nations agencies and bodies in this regard. We believe that technical assistance is another crucial aspect of our efforts.

  4. As terrorists use new and more sophisticated methods, adapt their tactics and modus operandi to changing circumstances, countering terrorism is becoming more complex. Furthermore, the expansion of the area in which terrorists operate is connected to the financing and financial support they receive. Therefore, terrorist groups are becoming increasingly involved in lucrative criminal activities, and criminal groups are helping terrorist organizations by providing services. This growing overlap between terrorism and organized crime requires greater attention from the international community. We cannot prevent and counter current and future threats in isolation. We need international and regional cooperation among us, as well as with civil society and the private sector.

  5. We would like to thank you, Mr. President, and the Permanent Mission of Peru to the United Nations for convening this open debate. We would also like to thank the briefers for their valuable remarks. Turkey aligns itself with the statement to be delivered by the observer of the European Union, and I would like to make the following remarks in my national capacity. Transnational threats, in particular terrorism and organized crime, are no doubt among the main security challenges that we face today. It is deeply alarming that the global threat of terrorism is expanding both geographically and in terms of tactics, despite the increasing resources and means devoted to fighting it. New technologies and opportunities are revealing themselves to terrorist organizations.
