“On behalf of my delegation, I wish to express our heartfelt appreciation to all Council members and Member States that supported the resolution just adopted, including by sponsoring the text. We fervently hope that the adoption of this resolution will serve to further strengthen our collective resolve to continue developing effective strategies and responses for the protection of children in armed conflict, even in the face of unprecedented challenges. The future of our nations and of the world rests upon the shoulders of the children that we secure, protect and nurture today.”

“During last year's 50-day war in Gaza, over 500 Palestinian children were killed and over 1,000 children suffered serious injuries causing permanent disabilities as a direct result of the Israeli attacks. Despite the fact that the number of Palestinian children killed was the third highest in the world, and the number of schools damaged or destroyed was the highest in the world in 2014, we have failed to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to account. Impunity will only further embolden the perpetrators. When we start applying different standards to perpetrators and when we discriminate against those who deserve justice and accountability, we are in fact perpetuating grave violations, not only of children's rights but those of humankind in general.”

“The question ofaccountability cannot go unaddressed and is a vital component of a comprehensive approach to child protection. We urge for actions to be taken under national or international justice mechanisms, where appropriate, against parties that commit violations and abuses against children. We reaffirm the importance of the Security Council framework for children and armed conflict and the various tools that have been developed to ensure the accountability and compliance of parties to conflict, including through the listing mechanism of the annual report of the Secretary-General. We believe that facts should be the determining factor that guides our actions under this framework. We are also dismayed that the credibility and integrity of the mechanism was questioned this year.”

“We are equally alarmed by the increasing instances of attacks on schools and hospitals, as well as the military use of schools by both State and non-State armed groups, thereby depriving thousands of children of access to education and health care. Building on the Security Council's call, in resolutions 1998 (2011) and 2143 (2014), for the protection of schools from attack and military use, I am pleased to announce Malaysia's endorsement of the Safe Schools Declaration, adopted on 29 May in Oslo. We encourage all member States to consider endorsing that declaration, which aims, inter alia, to raise awareness on good practices that would deter the military use of educational facilities in armed conflict and preserve schools as mainstays of learning, not bloodshed.”

“Apio illustrated in poignant detail the long-term consequences experiencedbychildren,particularly girls, and communities impacted by abduction, underscoring the importance of ensuring that mechanisms and programmes are in place to facilitate the reintegration and rehabilitation of children victimized by armed groups back into their communities. We must also recognize that reintegration is a long-term effort that requires the collective responsibility of all stakeholders, including the international community. In that regard, community-based reintegration programmes that foster a spirit of unity and reconciliation among communities ravaged by war deserve to be fully supported.”

“The use of abductions by Violent extremist groups as a terror tactic against local communities and minorities is an acute concern that cannot be easily addressed using the available tools and mechanisms. That is why, in our View, the unanimous adoption of resolution 2225 (2015) today is important, as it underscores our unified stance in denouncing the abduction of children. Strengthening the monitoring and reporting on abductions, as well as identifying perpetrators, will further contribute to ensuring accountability. At the same time, we must also ensure that security forces and peacekeeping missions are trained and equipped to proactively respond to situations where children are at risk of abduction and other grave violations. Ms.”

“Children in South Sudan and Somalia continue to be recruited in large numbers by armed groups and militias. Children abducted by violent extremist groups, such as Boko Haram and Daesh, are forced into sexual slavery and are coerced or brainwashed to inflict bloodshed, including as suicide bombers, combatants and executioners. Those continued violations against children shock our collective consciousness and demand a concerted, collective response. The increasing incidence of abductions perpetrated primarily by non-State armed groups is grave and disturbing. Children who are abducted can be subjected to myriad further violations - they can be harmed multiple times.”

“Graca Machel, in her seminal 1996 report on the impact of armed conflict on children (A/51/306), advocated forcefully that the protection of children in armed conflict is the joint responsibility of all actors - Member States, international and regional organizations, civil society and even the lone individual, each playing their respective roles. It is that sense of shared responsibility that Malaysia appeals to when calling for concerted action to end and alleviate the suffering of children harmed by warfare. This is especially so if we are to address challenges that require sustained attention and close collaboration. The challenges are manifold. In Yemen, Iraq and Palestine, children are losing their lives as the result of air strikes and the use of explosive weapons in densely populated settings.”

Malaysia fully acknowledges and commends the vital and indispensable work of the United Nations in advocating for and providing assistance to children affected by armed conflict around the world. I furthermore wish to thank Ms. Eunice Apio of the Facilitation for Peace and Development of Uganda for her testimony on the consequences of child abduction, the effects of which are far-reaching and are felt long after conflict has ended.”
