  1. We will not be replying to insinuations by the representative of Armenia. Azerbaijan is firm in its determination to rehabilitate, reconstruct and reintegrate its conflict- affected territories, ensure a safe and dignified return of refugees and internally displaced persons, advance the normalization agenda for the sake of peace, stability and well-being for all peoples in our region and prevent and eliminate, by all legitimate means, any threat to the safety and well-being of its people and the State’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Proceeding from that position, Azerbaijan constructively engages in the talks currently being held in Washington, D.C. In that context, we categorically reject all attempts by the representatives of Armenia to impose false narratives and animosity. The meeting rose at 6.55 p.m.

  2. Providing support to States affected by conflict and engaged in post-conflict peacebuilding, reconstruction, rehabilitation and reintegration is, and must remain, a critical commitment of the entire United Nations system. Such support and solidarity is critical to my country — Azerbaijan — and to many States around the world that are overcoming the consequences of devastating wars, aggression, occupation and ethnic cleansing. In conclusion, we believe that there is a need for closer strategic and operational partnership among the United Nations, Governments and other key stakeholders, while complying with national sovereignty and taking into account priorities and policies of States.

  3. It is also critical that the United Nations continue mobilizing the world against racism and confronting hate speech, hatred of all kinds, misinformation, disinformation and incitement to division, violence and extremism. Intercultural and interreligious dialogue at the national and international levels is one of the important avenues within the broader objectives of peacebuilding, sustaining peace and reconciliation. In that connection, we recognize the important role played by the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations. Strengthened global solidarity, multilateralism and common efforts, grounded in the Charter of the United Nations and international law, are the most effective ways to achieve the goals of peace, inclusive sustainable development and human rights for all.

  4. The foundation stone across all efforts is and must remain the State. Respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity is crucial to achieving any progress in preventing conflicts; restoring and maintaining peace; building bonds of peaceful, mutual trust among nations; enhancing respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms; protecting human security and promoting sustainable economic and social development. Furthermore, accountability is an important preventive tool and an essential constituent on the path to the adoption of a longer-term approach that looks towards shaping a more peaceful, just and inclusive future. Justice is a fundamental building block of peacebuilding, sustainable peace and a peaceful international order.

  5. Selectivity, double standards and the resulting persistent incompliance with international obligations, along with the inadequacy of international security mechanisms, have been and continue to be among the major obstacles to addressing current and emerging threats and promoting trust, predictability and peacebuilding more effectively. As this open debate, among its objectives, provides an opportunity to examine the role of international normative frameworks, it is essential, first and foremost, to reject misinterpretations, underline that there is no conflict among the commonly agreed norms and principles and reaffirm the duty to implement international obligations in good faith. The purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations are universally binding and must be applied consistently, not selectively.

  6. At the outset, I would like to congratulate the delegation of Switzerland on assuming the presidency of the Security Council and thank it for convening this important open debate. As the United Nations membership has engaged in informal discussions on the Secretary-General’s proposal for a New Agenda for Peace, we look forward to the outcomes as an opportunity to address all forms and domains of threats and reflect on the collective commitment to the Charter of the United Nations and multilateralism. I would like to briefly focus on some thematic areas of concern which, in our view, need to be taken into account in identifying possible contributions to the process and the ways and means of enhancing national and multilateral action.
