“We hope for similar success with regard to the draft convention on the suppression of acts of nuclear terrorism and the review of the International Atomic Energy Agency Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material. Finally, the Rio Group expresses its satisfaction with the fact that, as you pointed out, Mr. President, the next meeting of the Committee with international, regional and subregional organizations will be held in October at the headquarters of the Organization of American States, in accordance with the suggestion of the Inter-American Committee Against Terrorism. We are confident that that meeting will facilitate the follow-up, deepening and expansion of the areas of cooperation between international and regional organizations in the fight against terrorism.”

“The Rio Group also highlights the fact that, in the programme of work for its eighth work programme, the Committee should continue to work to identify the assistance and cooperation requirements of countries; develop a global information network against terrorism and modernize the electronic web site of the Committee; and promote universal participation in the 12 international conventions and protocols to combat terrorism. In that connection, the Rio Group expresses once again its interest in completing the strengthening of the international legal anti-terrorism framework, and we hope that a general convention against terrorism will soon become a reality.”

“These national reports contribute to the work of the Committee in its important endeavours to harmonize and implement anti-terrorism measures and to put in place practical mechanisms for international cooperation to combat such criminal activity. This work is sustained through the commitment of all the States Members of the United Nations, which is indispensable if the international community is to confront terrorist threats and related crimes with the required courage and strict respect for the rule of law. In this context, we support the effective application of the United Nations Programme of Action to Prevent, Combat and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All its Aspects.”

“Its entry into force commits the nations that have already ratified it to preventing, combating and eradicating the financing of terrorism and to effectively cooperating among themselves to combat that scourge. Those developments highlight the fact that the policies that the countries of the region have been developing for a number of years are ongoing and are being intensified, as the Security Council is aware. The steadfast support of our countries for the work of the CTC is the result of such policies. All of the States members of the Rio Group have sent their first two reports to the CTC. To date, some members have already delivered their third explanatory report at the request of the Committee, while others are preparing theirs.”

“In that context, the heads of State or Government defined, in what has become known as the Cusco Consensus, the following action: the strengthening, pursuant to resolution 1373 (2001) of cooperation among our authorities in the fight against terrorism and its relationship to illicit drugs, money laundering and illegal arms trafficking, while increasing information exchanges with a view to preventing terrorist acts and suppressing their financing. The other development was the entry into force, on 10 July, of the Inter-American Convention Against Terrorism. That multilateral instrument was adopted by the States members of the Organization of American States in June 2002.”

“The first was the declaration of the heads of State or Government of the Rio Group, made during its seventeenth annual Summit, held on 23 and 24 May in Cusco, Peru, in which they reaffirmed their strongest condemnation of terrorism, which is a threat to peace and security, to the effective enforcement of the rights of all individuals and to democratic stability. Similarly, they emphasized the need to continue to work to combat terrorism, particularly in relation to the global problem of drugs and related crimes, and underlined the fact that the fight against terrorism should be carried out with full respect for international law and human rights.”

“Mr. Doig (Peru) (spoke in Spanish): Peru has the honour to speak on behalf of the countries members of the Rio Group: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, the Dominican Republic, Uruguay, Venezuela and my own country, Peru. The Rio Group welcomes this open meeting of the Security Council on the report of the Counter- Terrorism Committee (CTC), and once again reiterates its complete repudiation of terrorism and its support for the work of the Committee. Since the previous open meeting on this subject, which was held on 4 April, there have been two regional developments that the Group would like to emphasize, as they confirm the progress of our nations' commitment to combating terrorism.”
