  1. “In conclusion, I strongly believe that we have taken a great step forward today towards modernizing the network of contacts among law enforcement focal points to make more agile our international judicial cooperation and our existing law enforcement mechanisms. We have strengthened existing instruments in the fight against terrorism and transnational organized crime, which is a critical objective that unites all of us. We all have reason to be satisfied. However, that satisfaction must not lead us to become complacent. The fight against terrorism and international crime is always an ongoing one. We must ensure that we are always taking steps forward and that we never lag behind those who do not wish to see peace and the peaceful coexistence between States. This resolution will undoubtedly help us in that endeavour.”

  2. “We therefore believe that it is very relevant and consistent with the law that, following its reaffirmation of our solidarity with the victims and their family members, the sixth preambular paragraph also recalls the importance of States redoubling their efforts to ensure that victims and family members are afforded the necessary assistance to overcome the subsequent loss and pain. Ensuringjustice, which means preserving the memory of the victims of terrorism and ensuring that they receive the support they deserve, will always serve as a moral point of reference for the document that we have adopted today.”

  3. “We must also reiterate the importance of cooperation within the framework of the United Nations and its various bodies, whom this presidency thanks for their substantial contributions, including the Counter-Terrorism Committee, its Executive Directorate, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, INTERPOL and the entire Counter-Terrorism Implementation Task Force. The resolution also includes a paragraph specifically dedicated to the victims of terrorism. Their memory must always guide our work in combating terrorism, which is a fight aimed at achieving justice. States must come up with measures to ensure support to the victims in the wake of terrorist acts and throughout the entirety of criminal proceedings.”

  4. “Along with international judicial cooperation, we also need to maintain and consolidate more effective law enforcement cooperation. Resolution 2322 (2016) calls for consolidating and strengthening an invaluable tool, that is, INTERPOL's I-24/7 network for secure communication among law enforcement agencies. All States must strengthen their capacity to participate in that network and ensure that the their response centres are provided with the proper training to combat terrorism and the phenomenon of foreign terrorist fighters. We also acknowledge the value of the I-24/7 network, which was established under the Additional Protocol to the Council of Europe Convention on the Prevention of Terrorism in May 2015.”

  5. “We must also strengthen international cooperation to respond to the threat. Today a great part of the evidence linked to terrorist attacks is obtained through the Internet and related technologies. Many crimes involving recruitment, organization and the preparation of attacks are carried out through those means. We must make progress in harmonizing the standards concerning the use of electronic evidence. We also need to ensure that the goal must be to ensure that evidence obtained in investigations carried out in one State can be used in another when we undertake cooperative judicial or extradition proceedings. The coordination, for instance, that we have afforded ourselves within the sphere of the European Union can serve as a example for the international community in general.”

  6. “It is important, in demonstrably urgent situations, to accept requests electronically without affecting the subsequent transmission of such information through traditional avenues, where appropriate. Without a doubt, the new telecommunications and information technologies, the Internet and social networks provide outstanding forums for freedom, for trade, for the economy, for the expression and dissemination of ideas and for education. But is certainly also true that terrorists have stepped up the use of technologies, which, without any doubt, entails an increasing challenge for our societies, the rule of law and public safety. We who are fighting them cannot be left behind. Consequently, we must devise legal frameworks to combat the abuse of the Internet by terrorist groups.”

  7. “Resolution 2322 (2016) updates the tools of international judicial cooperation and extradition that are available to us as an international community and urges us to fully make use of them so as to apply them to transnational organized crime and crimes of terrorism. Similarly, all Member States are called upon to designate and appoint central authorities to deal with requests for cooperation. With that measure, we will create a network of focal points with resources, training and authority to take action on terrorism-related crimes. The resolution also calls upon States to consider the possibility of developing a system to deal electronically with requests for cooperation in order to carry out all such processes more quickly and effectively.”

  8. “We therefore need to continuously fine-tune and update the tools available to us to counter terrorism. On 17 December 2015, the Council adopted resolution 2253 (2015), which complements resolutions 1267 (1999), 2178 (2014) and 2199 (2015). The resolution that we have adopted today is a milestone, another tool in the succession of tools with which the international community is equipping itself to confront the terrorist threat. Globalization is such that States now have to face the challenge of developing a comprehensive response to a criminal scourge that transcends national borders, because the frontiers of justice no longer coincide with territorial borders. If we do not do so, we will facilitate impunity.”

  9. “It is unfortunately an experience that many of us have shared. For that reason, we have made combating terrorism one of the priorities during our term as a non-permanent member of the Security Council. Spain's experience a testament to the fact that, with measures based on respect for the rule of law, a united society can confront and defeat terrorism. Such was the case in Spain. Faced with violent extremism and terrorism, comprehensive strategies are needed to address all aspects of this threat. In that context, international cooperation is an absolutely essential instrument for effectively combating all types of transnational organized crime. That is especially true in the context of today's terrorism, because, as we all know, it is a global threat. But we must also bear in mind that terrorism is constantly evolving.”

  10. “I welcome this resolution and I congratulate all the members of the Security Council on its unanimous adoption. On Saturday, on the occasion of Human Rights Day, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon recalled that those rights, together with peace and sustainable development, are the foundations of societies that are based on justice and the rule of law. Terrorism is one of the greatest threats to international peace and security. It is an affront to the fundamental pillars on which our societies are based and to fundamental human rights. Spain has long experience in this area because of what it has suffered owing to terrorism, both within its borders and in the international arena. Spanish society and its public authorities have also fought that scourge with efficiency and determination.”

  11. “I thank Mr. Strang for his briefing. On behalf of all the members of the Security Council, I would like to thank our three briefers for their useful and informative reports. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the Minister of Justice of Spain. Allow me to begin my statement by expressing, on behalf of the Government of Spain, our firm condemnation of the recent attacks taking place in Istanbul, Cairo, Mogadishu and Aden. These crimes elicit our most vigorous condemnation. We share the pain of the victims and extend our condolences to their families. Our best tribute to them, besides solidarity and accompaniment, is that of bringing the perpetrators to justice. I thank Mr. Laborde, Ms. Oduor and Mr. Strang for their briefings. I am also grateful for the support of the 51 sponsors of resolution 2322 (2016).”
