  1. “In that Council, all members would be equal and elected for three years, with the possibility of consecutive re-election. Finally, we need to work together to halt the spiral of insecurity that is buffeting the world. Highlighting the interests of all of our societies will ensure our ability to build a future of peace and security for all.”

  2. “Threats to international peace and security have changed in form and substance from those that led to the establishment of the Security Council in 1946, when the first meeting was held. That is why we consider it timely to resume the discussion on the reform of the Security Council, and to integrate a broader representation of nations to enrich our understanding of the threats to international peace and security. I reiterate that the cost of not doing so is too high for the sustainability, legitimacy and effectiveness of the multilateral system. Panama, like other Member States, has created a proposal to gradually achieve, in two successive stages, coinciding with the centenary of the United Nations, a Security Council of 25 members.”

  3. “It is important to build capacity in those organizations and to strengthen both their conflict prevention mandates and their capacity to implement solutions within the aforementioned principles of non-intervention and national sovereignty. They must have the tools, funding and expertise to implement their mandate. Above all, they should strengthen their legitimacy and credibility in the region. The Security Council enjoys pre-eminence in the maintenance of international peace and security, and a mandate to consider measures and promote closer, more effective cooperation between the United Nations and regional and subregional organizations in the areas of early warning and conflict prevention. The daily reality of emerging conflicts and the demands facing multilateral organizations are in constant flux.”

  4. “We also point to the Union of South American Nations, which is composed of 12 South American States, whose South American Defense Council is an innovative space for coordination and cooperation among South American countries in the field of peace and security. Overall, we believe that there is no single model for relations between the United Nations and regional organizations in promoting peace and peacebuilding. Some regional institutions focus primarily on cooperation for security, yet not necessarily on peace. They should take into account the experiences of each region and the various decision-making processes, which point to the need to strengthen cooperation with the United Nations within the purview of each regional organization.”

  5. “We note, for example, that the Organization of American States, the longest lasting regional entity, consisting of 35 States members, is a robust advocate of democracy, strengthening electoral systems and modernization of the State. With respect to crisis management, it promotes dialogue among the parties. We also stress the role of the States members of the Caribbean Community in decisively supporting United Nations efforts to stabilize Haiti, the only country in the Americas with a United Nations peacekeeping operation. We further note the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, which was created in 2011, has 35 member States, and represents a new political dialogue and integration mechanism, with the primary objective of integration and peace.”

  6. “To that end, regional agencies and organizations can play an important role in prevention and early warning of situations that undermine global peace and security in different parts of the world. In the Latin America and Caribbean region, we highlight the role played by regional entities in the struggle for security and peace among neighbours. It is important to clarify that in this region, sustainable economic and political progress is threatened not by the existence of weapons of mass destruction and nuclear weapons, but by inequality, the unmet needs of people, insecurity and the presence of organized criminal networks that are strengthened by drug trafficking networks in the region. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, 36 per cent of homicides globally occur in the Americas.”

  7. “We therefore reaffirm that peace and security will be strengthened to the extent that there is inclusive development to support the health of our ecosystems and promote equality and respect for all human rights, democracy, human development, gender equality and the participation of women. Facing that challenge requires a commitment to conflict prevention, constructive dialogue, cooperation and collaboration, mutual respect and education as the primary tools for guaranteeing the international peace and security that we all desire. Chapter VIII of the Charter of the United Nations, as has been mentioned by several speakers, notes that Member States shall make every effort to peacefully settle local disputes through agreements or regional agencies or arrangements.”

  8. “As Tavares has said, peace seeks to manage violence, while security seeks to manage threats. Therefore, the post- 2015 development agenda, "Transforming our world: the 2030 agenda for sustainable development", which will be adopted in September, envisions that its goals and targets will lead to a world free of poverty, hunger, disease, free from fear and violence, where all people can realize their potential. In particular, the target of goal 16, on promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, is to substantially reduce illicit flows of weapons, promote the return of seized assets and combat all forms of organized crime, inter alia, by 2030.”

  9. “In that context, regional conflicts or tensions resulting from interreligious or intercultural disputes, or drug trafficking, loss oflives as a result of terrorism and infectious diseases such as Ebola, and natural disasters, among others, affect the supranational flow of goods, services, people and capital that characterizes the global economy of our times. Allow me to share just two figures that reflect that impressive flow and interconnection. In 2005, the number of migrants, globally, was estimated at 191 million people. In terms of capital flow, global remittances were estimated at $406 billion in 2012. In that context, the maintenance of international peace and security are key factors and prerequisites for the progress and prosperity of humankind.”

  10. “Ms. Franceschi Navarro (Panama) (spoke in Spanish): At the outset, let me thank the presidency of the Security Council, in the person of the Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Nigeria, for convening this debate on the nature of current challenges to global security and the role that regional organizations and subregional organizations can play in the maintenance of international peace and security. This debate could not be more relevant. The global economy is more interconnected than ever, making global security a particularly relevant issue. What is therefore required is a certain minimum of security, stability and predictability at the global level so as to ensure that the flow and interconnectedness of the economy can guarantee well-being and prosperity for all.”
