  1. We consider that closing the gender digital divide and ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital economy and society are essential not only to achieving sustainable development but also to promoting peaceful, secure and gender- equal societies. On a final note, I would like to express Greece’s determination to contribute substantially to the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda and its core commitments, ahead of the twenty- fifth anniversary of the landmark resolution 1325 (2000), which hopefully will coincide with Greece’s participation in the Security Council.

  2. In that regard, my country, together with a core group of like-minded countries — Argentina, Austria, Costa Rica, France and Tunisia — promoted General Assembly resolution 76/173, on the safety of journalists and the issue of impunity, which the Assembly adopted unanimously in November 2021, with an unprecedented number of 112 sponsors. The resolution makes explicit reference to resolution 1325 (2000) and the women and peace and security agenda of the Security Council. Today’s event coincides with the sixty-seventh session of the Commission on the Status of Women, which is focused on innovation, technological change and education in the digital age for achieving gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls. Greece is actively participating in it in support of the Commission’s valuable work.

  3. Greece seeks to enhance the substantive and meaningful inclusion of women in peace processes as one of the most effective ways to achieve long-lasting and sustainable peace and security. At the same time, we advocate for ensuring the effective protection of women from conflict-related, gender-based and sexual violence. Furthermore, we underline the direct connection between three of the Security Council agendas — first, on the protection of civilians, secondly, on women and peace and security, and thirdly, on children and armed conflict. Greece has also been active in highlighting the disproportionate impact of armed conflict on women journalists, who often fall victim to undocumented conflict-related sexual violence, as well as discrimination and sexual harassment on- and offline.

  4. I would like to warmly thank Mozambique for organizing such an important event, which is aimed at reinforcing the implementation of the agenda on women and peace and security. Greece fully aligns itself with the statement to be delivered on behalf of the European Union, and I would like to make some additional remarks in my national capacity. My country emphasizes the importance of accelerating the realization of substantive gender equality both at home and abroad, as a means of contributing to a gender-equal, peaceful and more resilient world. The promotion of the women and peace and security agenda is among the priorities of Greece’s candidacy for election to the Security Council for the 2025-2026 term, as well as in view of the twenty-fifth anniversary of resolution 1325 (2000), coming up in 2025.
