“Despite a substantial reduction in the number of global attacks, ISIL continues to evolve into a global covert network, a process that is more advanced in Iraq than in the Syrian Arab Republic. In Iraq, ISIL has already started to organize cells at the provincial level, and there is currently a net flow of ISIL fighters from the Syrian Arab Republic to reinforce the emerging network in Iraq. If the objective to survive and resurge in the core area is achieved, ISIL may be expected to revive its focus on external terrorist operations, but for now the ISIL core lacks the strength to conduct coordinated international attacks. Meanwhile, Al-Qaida remains active in many regions and there is a concomitant risk of Al-Qaida growing stronger by taking advantage of the lull in ISIL strategic terrorist activity and staging a major attack of its own.”

“I shall focus mainly on the following elements: first, the evolving threat to international peace and security posed by the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant/Da'esh, Al-Qaida and affiliates; secondly, the response from the Committee; and thirdly, the Committee's engagement with Member States. On the evolving threat to international peace and security posed by ISIL (Da'esh), Al-Qaida and affiliates, in its latest, twenty-third report (S/2019/50), the Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team assesses that ISIL and its affiliates continue to pose the main and best-resourced international terrorist threat, while Al-Qaida remains resilient and active in many regions and retains the ambition to project itself more internationally.”

“I shall now provide a briefing in my capacity as Chair of the Security Council Committee established pursuant to Security Council resolutions 1267 (1999), 1989 (2011) and 2253 (2015) concerning ISIL (Da'esh), Al-Qaida and associated individuals, groups, undertakings and entities. On behalf ofthe Committee established pursuant to Security Council resolutions 1267 (1999), 1989 (2011) and 2253 (2015) concerning ISIL (Da'esh), Al-Qaida and associated individuals, groups, undertakings and entities, I would like to give a brief overview of developments in the work of the Committee since the joint Council briefing in October 2018 (see S/PV.8364). This briefing will also satisfy the requirement of resolution 2368 (2017) to report to the Security Council at least once per year on the overall work of the Committee.”

“The three Committees and their expert groups will continue to strive to ensure the effective implementation of specific counter-terrorism measures in the areas of sanctions, the financing of terrorism, border management and non-proliferation, among others, in regions and Member States of common interest, and in full compliance with international law, including international human rights law, international refugee law and international humanitarian law. Only through strong collaboration and targeted efforts can we achieve concrete results in our fight against terrorism. I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council.”

“From 7 to 8 November 2018, the experts of the Committees and CTED attended the 17th Meeting of Heads of Special Services, Security Agencies and Law-Enforcement Organizations, held in Moscow and organized by the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. The three Committees will continue to strengthen cooperation and effective coordination, where relevant and possible, with the support of CTED, the Monitoring Team and the 1540 Group of Experts, and will continue to provide guidance and direction to their expert groups in enhancing their collaboration and cooperation in the light of the requirements of the relevant Security Council resolutions.”

“In the reporting period, the expert groups continued to participate in platforms of common interest offered by regional organizations, such as the Eurasian Group on Combating Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the Inter-American Committee against Terrorism, INTERPOL, the Anti-Terrorism Centre of the Commonwealth of Independent States, the Regional Anti-Terrorist Structure of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and others. CTED recently signed a memorandum of understanding with the Regional Anti-Terrorist Structure of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization aimed at enhancing the strategic framework of cooperation between the two entities. The three Committees and the expert groups also continued to use the platforms for interaction provided by Member States.”

“The Groups of Experts continued to interact with the Financial Action Task Force, including its regional bodies: the Middle East and North Africa Financial Action Task Force, the Eastern and Southern Africa Anti-Money Laundering Group, the Asia/ Pacific Group on Money Laundering, the Financial Action Task Force of Latin America, the Eurasian Group on Combating Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism and the Inter-Governmental Task Force against Money- Laundering in Central Africa. In February, the Experts attended the FATF plenary and working groups meetings in Paris to discuss the efforts deployed by the FATF to monitor and take action against terrorist financing and countries' progress in addressing their deficiencies in countering the financing of terrorism and strategic anti-money-laundering.”

“Resolution 2462 (2019) comes at a critical time, and by setting new tasks for the CTC and the 1267 Committee it will help to further enhance our cooperation. The Committees, through their Groups of Experts, remain engaged with relevant international and regional organizations to explore ways to further strengthen interaction to complement efforts in the implementation of our mandates.”

“I would like to particularly welcome the role that the resolution assigns to CTED and the Monitoring Team in providing consultation to the Office of Counter-Terrorism and other stakeholders, especially on how to enhance coordination with the aim of delivering integrated technical assistance on counter-terrorist financing measures, including assistance that will improve the capacity of Member States to implement that resolution. The resolution requests that the CTC and the 1267 Committee hold, within 12 months, a joint special meeting on terrorist financing threats and trends, as well as on the implementation of the provisions of the resolution. It also requests that CTED and the Monitoring Team prepare, ahead of the joint special meeting, a report on actions taken by Member States to disrupt terrorist financing.”

“From 29 to 31 October 2018, the Monitoring Team participated in a CTED-assessment visit to the Republic of Mali to monitor and facilitate the implementation of the relevant Security Council resolutions and follow up on the progress made by Mali in implementing the Committee's 2006 and 2009 visit recommendations. The three Committees believe that such coordinated activities are important for strengthening their dialogue with Member States in order to ensure the implementation of the relevant United Nations resolutions. The Groups of Experts of the three Committees plan to continue organizing similar events in 2019. The adoption on 28 March of resolution 2462 (2019), on countering the financing of terrorism, laid the groundwork to further enhance coordination among our Committees.”

“Attended by representatives of the Government, as well as the private sector, the workshop contributed to raising awareness of ISIL (Da'esh) and Al-Qaida sanctions and provided a platform for discussions on the obligations contained in resolutions 1267 (1999) and 1540 (2004) for Member States; the distinctions among resolutions 1267 (1999), 1373 (2001) and 1540 (2004); the global threat assessment and terrorism financing risk in the eastern and southern Africa region; Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recommendation 6; and other important topics.”

“As requested by the Council in resolution 2396 (2017), on returning and relocating foreign terrorist fighters, in February 2019 the CTC held an open briefing on the Madrid Guiding Principles on foreign terrorists fights, adopted by the CTC in December 2018. The briefing, which was also attended by the Monitoring Team, was aimed at raising awareness and strengthening the understanding of the 17 additional good practices to assist Member States in their efforts to respond to the evolving phenomenon of foreign terrorist fighters. As an example of that cooperation, I would like to highlight the support that the Monitoring Team and the 1540 Group of Experts jointly provided to Zimbabwe for the organization of a workshop held from 10 to 12 October 2018 in Harare.”

“The meeting provided an opportunity to address regional specificities, strategies, responses and lessons learned in addressing the Committees' linkages as well as the challenges to strengthening domestic, regional and international cooperation in this field. The Groups of Experts of the three Committees maintain regular contact and continue to share relevant information where appropriate, discuss matters of common concern, coordinate action and exchange analysis on particular issues. The Monitoring Team and CTED continue to conduct quarterly meetings for coordination and information exchange.”

“The Committees also continue to augment information-sharing through joint briefings such as today's meeting. Since the last joint briefing to the Council on 3 October 2018 (see S/PV.8364), the 1267 Committee and the Counter-Terrorism Committee (CTC) conducted two joint informal meetings - in December 2018 and in February 2019 -to hear briefings by the United States Department of State and the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. On 26 April 2019, the CTC and the Committees established pursuant to 1267 (1999) and 1988 (2011) co-organized a special meeting on the nexus between international terrorism and transnational organized crime.”

“Returning and relocating for foreign terrorist fighters poses a potential threat and requires tailored prosecution, rehabilitation and reintegration methods that are consistent with international law and take into account gender and age considerations. Against this background, the Committees continue to raise awareness among Member States of their obligations with regard to effectively implementing relevant Security Council resolutions, to cooperate on joint visits and to hold joint committee meetings. Their Groups of Experts have continued to enhance their cooperation with international, regional and subregional organizations and United Nation bodies, including within the framework of the newly- established United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact.”

“This was reiterated in the eighth report of the Secretary-General (S/2019/ 103) on the threat posed by ISIL (Da'esh) to international peace and security and the range of United Nations efforts in support of Member States in countering the threat, prepared by the prepared by the Counter- Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED) and the Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team, in collaboration with the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism and other United Nations entities and international organizations. The Committees and their Groups of Experts also share an understanding that despite its progressive military defeat ISIL remains a global organization with centralized leadership, which continues to resource and instruct its affiliates within its reduced ability.”

The Committees and their Groups of Experts share a common understanding of the seriousness of the threat posed by terrorism and the challenges presented by terrorists and their organizations.”

“We on the Council should really be united in saving people's lives. The Syrian people have every right to live in peace and dignity and without fear. In conclusion, we urge all the parties to cooperate fully in ensuring the protection ofthe millions ofpeople in Idlib so as to contribute to stability on the ground at this perilous time. In this holy month of Ramadan, I make a humble appeal. Let there be restraint. Let there be respite so that all citizens in Idlib can break their fast without fear and with food on the table. Let there be peace. I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council. I give the floor to the representative of the Syrian Arab Republic.”

“We would therefore like to reiterate our strong support for his work and his priorities in advancing a political solution in Syria, based on the Geneva communique (S/2012/522, annex) and resolution 2254 (2015). Indonesia is of the View that unless there is a durable political solution to the conflict, the humanitarian crisis will be increasingly difficult to resolve. In the meantime, it is important for all parties to step up their efforts to ensure that the humanitarian effort in Syria goes forward without hindrance. At the moment, taking an approach of naming and shaming is not the solution. It is clearly not going to take us anywhere, nor will it contribute to saving innocent Syrians on the ground. We must work together to find solutions. Civilians and refugees do not care about words but about deeds and actions to save their children.”

“Indonesia also believes that it is crucial for the Astana guarantors and other countries with influence over the parties to the conflict to help prevent further escalation and to engage in a genuine dialogue that would yield concrete measures, with the aim of stabilizing the situation in north-western Syria. A genuine commitment of all parties to pursuing a political solution and reconciliation is needed now more than ever. Thirdly, my delegation wishes to ensure that the current escalation will not overshadow or derail the progress of the ongoing political process that is being facilitated by Special Envoy Pedersen, in close consultation with all relevant parties.”

“First, civilians should not and must not continue to be the targets and victims of military operations. Moreover, education facilities and medical infrastructure, such as hospitals, must not be subject to direct attacks of a military purpose. All parties should abide by international humanitarian law and faithfully implement resolution 2286 (2016). It is indeed frustrating to see that the current situation in Idlib is at a stage where a military solution is becoming more attractive than pursuing a peaceful resolution. Secondly, the Council needs to continue reminding all relevant parties to recommit to the Russian-Turkish ceasefire agreement.”

“I will now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Indonesia. My delegation wishes to thank Under-Secretaries- General Mark Lowcock and Rosemary DiCarlo for their briefings. Indonesia, like others, is very concerned about the escalation of violence in north-western Syria, which has resulted in human casualties, particularly in recent weeks. The deteriorating situation has affected the ability of many Syrians to enjoy their basic rights. Schools and health facilities have been damaged, and around 180,000 people have been displaced in the past 10 days alone. The very grim and desperate situation on the ground, as depicted by Under-Secretary-General Lowcock, represents a worsening situation and a looming humanitarian crisis. That is unacceptable. In this context, I would like to briefly highlight three points.”

“In accordance with rule 37 of the Council's provisional rules of procedure, I invite the representatives of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Syrian Arab Republic and Turkey to participate in this meeting. In accordance with rule 39 of the Council's provisional rules of procedure, I invite the following briefers to participate in this meeting: Ms. Rosemary DiCarlo, Under-Secretary-General for Peacebuilding and Political Affairs, and Mr. Mark Lowcock, Under- Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator.

“Indonesia stands ready to contribute and work with the international community to achieve lasting peace and stability in the Sahel, including through our peacekeepers serving in MINUSMA. We look forward to the press statement to be issued by the French delegation. I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council. There are no more names inscribed on the list of speakers. The meeting rose at 12.55 pm.”

“In addition, good governance, addressing poverty and inequality, creating opportunities for young people and combatting climate change remain crucial to improving the living conditions of the Sahelian people. We support the joint efforts of regional actors, the African Union, the European Union and the United Nations in the implementation of the United Nations Integrated Strategy for the Sahel and the United Nations Support Plan for the Sahel. We also appreciate the role of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime in supporting the Sahel region, as well as the accelerated implementation of the G-5 Sahel regional strategy and Priority Investment Programme, particularly for the most vulnerable. We also call on the international community to support efforts in the region so as to be able to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.”

“The situation in the G-5 countries also has spillover effects on neighbouring countries in West Africa and impacts the overall stability of the region. There is therefore a need for comprehensive and multisectoral approaches to tackle the root causes of instability and build the resilience of the Sahelian people. Thirdly, Indonesia believes that security initiatives should be part of broader efforts to ensure lasting stability in the Sahel, which also encompasses social and economic development, as well as human rights aspects. It is important to win the hearts and minds of the population in addressing security challenges in the Sahel. We have always advocated for greater community engagement in that regard.”

“Indonesia is of the view that the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) is playing an important role in supporting the G-5 Sahel Joint Force and that we should further consider what can be done to enhance that support, including when we discuss the renewal of MINUSMA's mandate. Secondly, we remain concerned about the continuing deterioration of the security and humanitarian situation in the Sahel. The security situation in the Sahel remains precarious, with continued attacks by terrorists, including an attack on the G-5 Sahel Joint Force headquarters last year. There has also been an uptick in intercommunal violence. The persistent insecurity has resulted in heightened humanitarian needs and an increasing number of internally displaced persons and people suffering from malnutrition.”

“In addition, more efforts have been made in the deployment of police and civilian components, as well as the implementation of the human rights compliance framework. We hope that it will translate into real improvement in the overall security situation on the ground. We are cognizant, however, that the Joint Force continues to work within a very difficult environment. Therefore, support is indeed important, including predictable and sustainable funding, as well as training and capacity-building. In that regard, Indonesia commends the commitment of donors and calls for the disbursement of contributions pledged to support the Joint Force. As also outlined in the Secretary-General's report, future support options from the United Nations for the G-5 Sahel Joint Force should be further considered.”

“Our condolences also go to all the innocent victims of the many terrorist attacks in the region. I would like to focus on three pertinent points. First, Indonesia supports the initiative and determination of the G-5 Sahel countries in addressing the security challenges that they faced through the establishment of the G-5 Sahel Joint Force. The cooperation among Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania and the Niger certainly serves as an excellent example of neighbouring countries working together to address a common cause. As the report of the Secretary General (S/2019/371) suggests and Mr. Barry mentioned, there has been some encouraging progress, such as the deployment of 75 per cent of troops across three sectors, the resumption of operations of the Joint Force and the increase in civil- military cooperation activities.”

I would like to begin by welcoming His Excellency Mr. Alpha Barry, Minister for Foreign Affairs and Cooperation of Burkina Faso, to the Chamber and to thank him for his briefing on behalf of the Group of Five for the Sahel (G-5 Sahel). I would also like to thank all the briefers in today's meeting, who have provided us with a comprehensive overview. The variety of the briefers certainly represents the excellent cooperation among regional international organizations in working together to address the G-5 Sahel. Let me start by paying tribute to the many peacekeepers on the ground and honouring those who have lost their lives in the fight to preserve peace and security in the Sahel region, including the two fallen French soldiers.”

“We also support the work of the World Food Programme in delivering assistance. We have also noted the point Under-Secretary- General Lowcock made that humanitarian support has started to reach people in need, but the situation remains dire. We should continue to preserve the momentum gained and ensure more robust humanitarian delivery on the ground. Moreover, we heard Under-Secretary- General stress the need for funding, which is very important. Once again, Indonesia would like to reiterate the importance of unity within the Security Council to take measures to ease the suffering of the Yemeni people and support any action that could advance the peace process. We must never forget that ourjob is to save the people of Yemen. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I give the floor to the representative of Yemen.”

“Not only is starvation lingering, but the people are also facing a cholera outbreak, as Ms. Fore described. I believe that the picture that she painted in the Council is a very bleak one; the Council must do something in that regard. There are many cholera cases, as Mr. Fore reported: 153 children have died since January, and, just in one week, there were 13 associated deaths, from 29 April to 5 May. It is a dire warning to us all that the humanitarian situation in Yemen is reaching its lowest point. That should be addressed immediately. We should all heed the call of the Executive Director of UNICEF to be united to help the children of Yemen. Indonesia supports the work of UNICEF, the World Health Organization and other actors to cure and stop the cholera outbreak. All parties in Yemen should cooperate to facilitate their efforts.”

“Griffiths' View on the involvement ofwomen in the peace process and on a comprehensive solution. The Stockholm Agreement calls for all parties to be fully committed to continuing the consultations unconditionally; that is an important point. Indonesia would like to once again reiterate its call for the parties to release or exchange all detainees. There should also be some progress related to the city of Taiz, as the situation there is not improving. Indonesia also calls on all sides to exercise restraint from provocative actions, such as drone attacks, that could further escalate tensions and derail the fragile efforts that are currently being undertaken by the United Nations. Military action is not the solution. Thirdly, Indonesia remains concerned about the constantly bleak humanitarian picture in Yemen.”

“In addition to that, and as set out in the Al-Hudaydah agreement, we also expect that the revenues from the three ports will be settled and channelled to the Central Bank of Yemen through its branch in Al-Hudaydah. We need to revive the economy in support of humanitarian efforts. It is our expectation that the humanitarian corridors will be established. Secondly, Indonesia supports the continuation of consultations between the Government of Yemen and the Houthis to pursue the bigger goal of a political settlement and resolve the conflict. We support the work of the Special Envoy, as well as Lieutenant General Lollesgaard. Constant engagement among the parties, in our opinion, is an investment in the peaceful resolution of the long-standing conflict in Yemen. We also share Mr.”

“First, regarding the implementation of the Al-Hudaydah agreement, Indonesia takes note of the redeployment of troops by the Houthis from the three ports, as well as the report from the Special Envoy on the meeting in Amman to discuss the revenue from those ports. That exercise should continue with the demining operations in the ports and the removal of heavy weaponry, under the monitoring of the United Nations Mission to Support the Al-Hudaydah agreement, with a View to ensuring a valid, verifiable, genuine and faithful implementation of the agreement. It is hoped that this long-delayed step could soon be followed by the other steps that are necessary to remove any military manifestations from the city, as stipulated in the Stockholm Agreement.”

Any action taken by the international community must be carefully monitored in order to ensure that it does not provoke further violence, thereby endangering lives and jeopardizing the quest for peace. On that note, the referral of the situation in Libya to the ICC should not prevent the competent Libyan authorities from invoking their jurisdiction to investigate gross violations of human rights and bring the perpetrators to justice. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I give the floor to the representative of Libya.”

“It is very worrying that a month after armed conflict began in Tripoli, the World Health Organization reported this week that 432 people have died, 2,069 people have been wounded and more than 50,000 have had to flee their homes. Every day of violence means that more people are killed, injured or displaced. That must stop. Efforts should be made to help those in need in order to save innocent lives. That leads me to my third and final point, which relates to the ICC's proceedings. Indonesia is committed to pursuing justice in Libya, which is part of broader efforts to achieve long-lasting and sustainable peace in Libya. While peace cannot be complete and sustainable without justice, justice cannot prosper in the absence of peace. The rule oflaw must be respected.”

“Peace is still nowhere to be found. The international community, including the Council, should work together to give Libyans a chance to finally experience peace again. We are also concerned about the large number of grave violations of international law and of serious, multifaceted crimes, as Prosecutor Bensouda just informed us, such as murder, sexual violence, human trafficking and violence against migrants. We join the Prosecutor's call in her 16 April statement to all parties and armed groups involved in the fighting to fully respect international humanitarian law and take measures to protect civilians. Secondly, Indonesia calls for humanitarian relief during the month of Ramadan.”

“I will now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Indonesia. At the outset, Indonesia would like to thank Ms. Fatou Bensouda, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), for her briefing. We have taken note of her seventeenth report to the Security Council, pursuant to resolution 1970 (2011) on Libya. Indonesia joins others in showing our deep concern for the situation in Libya, and today I would like to bring three points to the Council's attention. First, like others, Indonesia calls for the cessation of hostilities in Libya. We also call for all parties to come back to the negotiating table with a view to achieving a peaceful future for the country. We heard promises less than two months ago about preparations for a Libyan national conference in April. That date has come and gone.”
