  1. “Finally, the Security Council Working Group on Peacekeeping Operations is key to improving the interaction between those who are establishing and renewing mandates and those that implement them, as well as with the Secretariat. In this regard, Uruguay remains committed to improving the working methods for the biennium 2016-2017 in which it will sit as a non-permanent member of this body.”

  2. “The United Nations Charter, Security Council resolutions, including resolution 1353 (2001), and various presidential statements establish and refer to these mechanisms, including provisions for early consultations with TCCs before establishing or renewing new mandates; ad hoc meetings at any stage of mandates, at the request of the TCCs; and information exchange and thematic discussions. In this regard, we believe that there is room to improve the use of these tools, such as anything to do with sharing information, including early access to the reports of the Secretary-General, which my country has insisted on in other areas, for example, during our presidency of the Group of Friends of Haiti when the first draft ofresolution 1542 (2004), for the mandate for the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti, was being prepared.”

  3. “This means that listening to the voices from the ground will lead to more credible and realistic mandates. Similarly, the triangular cooperation between the Security Council, the Secretariat and Member States at large, in particular the troop-contributing countries (TCCs) and police-contributing countries, also needs to be improved if we are to achieve a true partnership. As my country has noted in other forums, no new instruments are needed for consultations to be conducted in an efficient manner; the challenge lies in the implementation of the existing ones.”

  4. “The report of the High-level Independent Panel on Peace Operations (S/2015/446) and the Secretary- General's report on its implementation (S/2015/682) make it clear that the subject of consultations with troop-contributing and police-contributing countries remains a priority for improving the effectiveness of peacekeeping mandates, in particular through the earlier involvement of those countries in the process of developing such mandates. The need for early consultations with troop-contributing and police-contributing countries in the current context, in which we are witnessing an increase in direct attacks on peacekeepers, and when mandates are becoming increasingly complex, including offensive actions in some cases, has become increasingly important.”

  5. “Peacekeeping operations are fundamental tools for the maintenance of international peace and security and are an instrument to which Uruguay has been committed for decades through concrete contributions to the system and through its ongoing contribution to policy discussions held within the Organization with regard to those operations. Therefore, as an actor committed to peacekeeping, Uruguay hopes for success in the processes currently under way to review or consider United Nations peace operations, peacebuilding and resolution 1325 (2000).”

  6. “Mrs. Carrien (Uruguay) (spoke in Spanish): Allow me, Sir, to congratulate you on convening this open debate, which is of great importance to our country, and to thank you for giving us the opportunity to speak for the first time as a member-elect of the Council. Uruguay aligns itself with the statements made by the representatives of Switzerland on behalf of the Accountability, Coherence and Transparency group; of Liechtenstein with regard to the code of conduct; and of Estonia on the election of the Secretary-General. In the spirit of the Spanish presidency's call to refrain from repeating ideas that have already been raised, I shall not linger on the issues already covered by the statements of the delegations just mentioned, but concentrate on a very important point that my country wishes to highlight.”
