“Mexico therefore reaffirms that nuclear safety can be understood only within the broad context of indivisible security for all, which must be enshrined in the full implementation of existing international commitments on nuclear disarmament, non-proliferation and safeguarding of the inalienable right of States to develop nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.”

“Accordingly, 10 years after the adoption of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy, we have seen how it has become a genuine instrument for coordinating cooperative efforts by the international community to prevent and combat this scourge in a holistic way. However, we must at last adopt a comprehensive convention on international terrorism, which would have a positive impact on efforts to meet the challenges posed by non-State actors to the non-proliferation regime. Efforts to strengthen national capacities against the risks associated with weapons ofmass destruction must be also be addressed in a holistic manner and without overlooking the need to strengthen nuclear security.”

“We need greater coordination and regulation of States parties and relevant international organizations in order to prevent non-State actors from gaining access to biological materials and toxic chemical substances. We must also promote a prevention and response approach in case those actors try to utilize chemical substances or pathogens as weapons of mass destruction. The ability of terrorist groups to evolve and adapt to the efforts of the international community to contain and counteract their impact on peace and security, including in the area of non-proliferation, has heightened the importance of efficiently addressing the underlying causes of terrorism.”

“The Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on Their Destruction and its monitoring authority, the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, have managed to lead the international community to a historic landmark-we are on the brink of physically eliminating all chemical weapons worldwide. Nevertheless, despite the success of those efforts, we have seen with great concern the use of toxic chemical substances against the civilian population of Syria in the context of the armed conflict in that country. Those facts and other recent events in Libya underscore that the best way to ensure that weapons of mass destruction will harm no one is to pursue their total ban and elimination.”

“Security in the twenty-first century should be approached from a multidimensional perspective that includes the consideration of public health, biotechnology, epidemiology, monitoring and early warning, the regulation of dual-use materials, and intergovernmental technological and scientific development and cooperation. Mexico considers it vital that the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on Their Destruction establish synergies with other relevant bodies and mechanisms so as to pave the way for its full and effective implementation and bring about sustainable public policies, which would prevent that technology and type of weapons from falling into the hands of unauthorized actors.”

“Mexico reaffirms its historical and staunch commitment to nuclear disarmament and the non-proliferation ofweapons ofmass destruction, as well as its commitment to the implementation of resolution 1540 (2004) as a crucial mechanism for coordinating the efforts of the international community to take on the challenge of enforcing the non-proliferation regime, and particularly for impeding non-State actors from acquiring weapons of mass destruction or their components through the trafficking of related materials or dual-use goods. Mexico hopes that the comprehensive review of thr resolution will lead to commitments that strengthen the non-proliferation regime and will yield a work plan in that field.”

“Mrs. Garcia Guiza (Mexico) (spoke in Spanish): At the outset, I would like to thank the Secretary- General and other high-level representatives for their participation in this debate. We welcome the fact that the Security Council is addressing the topic of the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, as non-proliferation is one of the gravest risks to international peace and security.”
