  1. In conclusion, in recognition of women’s pivotal role in preventive diplomacy aimed at building, preserving and sustaining peace, in a manner commensurate with the role owed to women in our societies today, we still hope to see our next meeting for the upcoming year held in this Chamber, so that we can review together the achievements that women have realized on the ground nationally, regionally and internationally, as part of their continuing determination to truly be active partners alongside men in establishing international peace and security and keeping our planet safe, secure and stable, free of wars and all conflicts.

  2. The most recent is the formation of an emergency committee to protect women during armed conflict at the regional level. We have also established the Arab Network of Peace Mediators, where experiences and benefits are currently being exchanged through close coordination and cooperation with UN- Women and the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia as well.

  3. The war is a flagrant violation not only of resolution 1325 (2000) but of international law, international humanitarian law and human rights, not to mention the customs and laws that the three tolerant religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam are founded on. At the regional level, in an embodiment of the institutional cooperation between the Arab League and the Security Council, as a follow-up to the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000) and based on the League’s belief in the societal and institutional role of women in building, making, and sustaining peace, the Arab League and its member States have established many constructive plans on the ground, including strategies aimed at protecting Arab women and enhancing their role, especially in hotbeds of conflict in our region.

  4. In that regard, it must be pointed out that the Israeli occupation’s continued barbaric violations of women’s and children’s rights in the occupied Palestinian territory not only affect Palestinian women there and their ability to participate in peace and security efforts, but also affect the ability of Palestinian women and girls to play their roles in ordinary political, economic and social life. We do not doubt for a moment that Israel’s recent brutal and ongoing war on the defenceless people of Gaza is an attempt to destroy their communities, displace them to neighbouring areas and obstruct our international and regional efforts to achieve peace in the region and in occupied Palestine. Unfortunately, we have failed to achieve that peace for more than seven decades.

  5. Given the international community’s need for more ideas and efforts to enhance the role of women and involve them in various political, economic and social fields nationally, regionally and internationally — especially where peace processes and the maintenance of international peace and security are concerned — and in the interests of saving time, on behalf of the League of Arab States I would like to focus on one of the four proposals included in our statement, whose full text will be transmitted to the Council within the framework of supporting and strengthening the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda. The Arab League emphasizes the importance of focusing on the cohesion of that agenda nationally, regionally and internationally if we are to help women achieve their inalienable rights.

  6. We do not doubt for a moment that much progress has been made in advancing the role of women and their participation in the processes of maintaining international peace and security, whether through their international and regional participation within military and police peacekeeping forces or as leaders in the United Nations, including its peace operations and various political missions. However, there is still a lot of work to be done within the framework of the Security Council, especially considering the retreat we have seen from some hard-won gains in both legislative and executive bodies and institutions, as the statistics testify.
