“The youth of today need all ofthose gathered around this table, who are the policymakers who can impact world peace and security, the decision makers who can partner with young people in peacebuilding efforts. We must not allow them to become the targets of Violence and destruction. The generation represented here is also in Charge of developing education, development and economic policies. We have before us the largest generation of young people in history, and the greatest opportunity to build and empower communities where reason is law and ethics are the constitution, where peace, equality, respect, dialogue, coexistence and acceptance of differences are all core values. Those are the foundations of our common humanity. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I give the floor to the members of the Council.”

“We have to direct our energies away from answering the question "What should we do?" toward the question of "How should we do it?" We must empower young people to fight for their own future by giving them the tools to address their generation through electronic communication platforms. They need to form intellectual networks and alliances that can reach their peers and lead the youth to adopt the values of co-existence, respect for diversity and rejection of violence. Allow me to declare the readiness of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan to host the first international conference on the role of youth in building sustainable peace, in partnership with the United Nations, in August. The goal ofthe event is to enhance the capacity ofyoung people to build peace, and confront extremism and terrorism.”

“The ideologies of darkness can reach where armies cannot, as modern communications have provided all voices with an opportunity to reach every ear willing to listen. Young people comprise the largest group of Internet users, and extremist groups spread their poisonous ideology across social media platforms - luring victims into their dark world under religious pretexts and promises of heavenly rewards. To that end, they use appealing high-tech videos that fascinate and mislead young people by glorifying the crimes of terrorist as great achievements. We have to stand up to that threat, which takes advantage of our youth's potential to create an inhumane world.”

“There is much talk about youth being a marginalized segment of society. Allow me to say that they are not a marginalized group, but rather a targeted group. They are targeted for their huge self-confidence and potential ability to change the world. With that drive, they look for opportunities to invest their potential, but when they face a dead-end, their ambition is transformed into frustration, which other groups use to fuel their own agendas. We have to fill that vacuum that is being exploited by enemies of humanity, by building on the potential of youth and empowering them to achieve their ambitions. That can be accomplished by equipping young people with quality education, proper job opportunities and a decent living. We are in a race to invest in the hearts and minds as well as the capabilities of youth.”

“Studies show that poverty, unemployment, ignorance and weak familial ties create fertile ground for extremist thought and dismal ideas. If we examine the relevant data, we will find that youth are facing a decisive challenge: across our globe, there are nearly 73 millionjobless young men and women and more than 14 million young refugees and displaced persons. In addition, the majority of the victims of armed conflicts are young people. While youth represent the most vulnerable group in the present situation with its attending consequences, they can also have the strongest impact on the present and the future. That has been evident in the recent events in my region - the Arab region. As a young man who is part of that generation, I take part in debates about the challenges facing my generation and the need to empower youth.”

“No country is immune from the threat of terrorism, whose enemy is humanity, regardless of religion, gender, age or nationality. The war on terror concerns us all. In the past few decades, the world has witnessed events and conflicts and their consequences that have made an increasing number of young people more susceptible to fall into the darkness of extremism and the traps set by deceitful people. Young people are the most susceptible to voluntary or involuntary recruitment by military, terrorist and extremist groups. Accordingly, urgent measures must be taken to put an end to that bloodshed. More than half of the world's population is below the age of 30, the majority of whom live in developing countries.”

“I thank Mr. Atran for his briefing. I would like to express my deepest thanks and appreciation to His Excellency Mr. Ban Ki-moon for his efforts to realize the goals of the United Nations. It is an honour to be with other Council members today while my country, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, assumes the presidency of the Security Council for the second time during our current term. I am particularly pleased to be attending this debate on youth in conflict zones and the role ofyouth in peace-making. The world is facing a formidable challenge, namely, terrorism and extremism, which may be the greatest challenge to world peace and security - with youth being their prime victims. Today, we are facing a scourge that threatens the entire world.”
