“That in turn requires efforts on all levels, with a view to setting out clear strategies and charting courses of action that we can take to face the current threats to international peace and security. Cooperation among regional and international organizations has become an important prerequisite to face all sorts of challenges, whether regional or international. In that context, some organizations - such as the League of Arab States, the European Union and the African Union, as well as many other organizations in Asia and Latin America - serve as very useful models that should be followed in collectively achieving regional security. The League of Arab States is also among the regional organizations that serves as an important political forum for settling conflicts and launching mediation efforts and political processes.”

“Increasing globalization and technological progress have also served to create complex, intertwined threats that go beyond the territory of a single State or region - such as cyberthreats - which will threaten global security unless we work collectively to address them with creative methods. The concept of security has therefore changed overall. It is no longer tied just to military or State security as it once was. It is therefore no longer enough to focus on regional security alone, as it too is linked to political, economic and developmental issues that require a comprehensive, global perspective as well as mutual reliance among regional and international organizations, such as the United Nations.”

“Mr. Hmoud (Jordan) (spoke in Arabic): I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for his valuable briefing. I would also like to thank the presidency of the Security Council for organizing this important meeting. At present, the world faces great changes and transformations in the structure of the international system and with regard to the concept of regional and international security, as well as with regard to the policies guiding regional and international relations. Ongoing instability in certain regions has led to great changes in the type of security threats we face. For example, terrorist groups take advantage of chaos and instability to transform into global groups that threaten all regions without exception.”

“Finally, we value highly the role of the 1737 Committee, which assists countries and international organizations in the implementation of the Council's relevant resolutions through the consideration of countries' requests for the provision of technical assistance to Iran in various areas. We encourage such action, as it will facilitate States' and organizations' effective implementation of Council resolutions.”

“Once again, we stress that the 1737 Committee should continue its work in the most effective manner possible and carry out the necessary inquiries regarding Violations, in addition to continuing to cooperate positively with the Iranian Government in order to clear up issues regarding past violations. We also encourage those countries that have not yet submitted reports on the measures they have adopted to implement the Council's relevant resolutions, to do so with utmost haste. They must also cooperate positively with the Panel of Experts, as the success of the Committee's work is highly dependent on the reports submitted by Member States.”

“It is ofutmost importance that the agreementbe fully aligned with all international standards, particularly in terms of the physical security of nuclear installations, through full oversight by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Impacts on environmental issues must also be considered. It would be important for the agreement to include a number of mechanisms to address possible future violations. Furthermore, we believe that we must begin by examining more seriously issues related to the arms embargo against Iran, in particular in the light of the information on violations contained in the Panel of Experts' report. It is a major challenge that must be considered extremely carefully.”

“Mr. Hmoud (Jordan) (spoke in Arabic): At the outset, I wish to thank the Permanent Representative of Spain for the information provided and his leadership in chairing the work of the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1737 (2006). I also thank the Panel of Experts for the preparation of the report (S/2015/401, annex) that is before the Council. The changes taking place in the Middle East region are striking. Member States are waiting to see the final details of the agreement regarding the situation. Jordan hopes that the agreement will contribute to strengthening trust and allaying fears regarding the Iranian nuclear programme, establish the basis for peace and stability in the Middle East and strengthen the nuclear non-proliferation regime in the Middle East and worldwide.”

“We call upon the Government to assume its responsibilities and reach that goal, and we urge the donor community and countries in the region to continue to support development and invest jointly in Afghanistan. We welcome the efforts of UNAMA, which is working extremely effectively in various areas under the difficult circumstances in the country, and we encourage it to continue to play that role.”

“We call upon the Government to intensify its efforts to improve the situation of vulnerable and marginalized groups in the country, and we also emphasize that all matters related to women's rights must be an integral part of all debates on peace, so that women can be more involved in future progress. Jordan is concerned about Afghanistan's poor economic situation, particularly in View of the fragile security conditions following the terrorist attacks, and we trust that the necessary steps will be taken to improve the economic situation so that donors in the international community regain confidence in the country. One of the most important measures will be the struggle against corruption at all levels of the Government, as the United Nations and international financial institutions have reiterated on various occasions.”

“In view of the Afghan President's announcement that the current legislature will be extended until new elections are held, we appeal to the Special Commission on Electoral Reform to start work as soon as possible and implement all the necessary reforms, avoiding the mistakes of the past and thereby guaranteeing that the electoral process will comply with international standards. We hope that the progress made in that area will be presented to the Security Council at its meeting in September. We would like to emphasize once again the need to expedite the implementation of anti-corruption reform programmes so as to ensure that human rights and the rule of law are upheld.”

“Resolving differences among the different components within Afghan society, in order to ensure the stability that the country so desires, will not be possible unless there is national reconciliation throughout Afghanistan, led by the Afghans themselves. Because the use of force and violence by different elements will hinder the achievement of those goals, bringing about a comprehensive peace remains a great challenge in the country. Taking that into account, we would stress the importance of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan's (UNAMA) role and that of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General in deploying their good offices to strengthen national reconciliation. We call upon all the parties to participate constructively in that process.”

“In the near future, in cooperation with interested countries and the Government of Afghanistan, we must carry out a comprehensive analysis of the situation in determining how the Council can help bolster security and stability in that country. Jordan welcomes the fact that the formation of the new Afghan Government has been completed in order to maintain the progress achieved thus far through democracy. That ongoing process has seen the involvement of all Afghans, political parties and national partners in Afghanistan. We welcome the formation of this new Government, and we hope that it marks the start of positive change in the political landscape and in the peacebuilding process in Afghanistan.”

“That is the real challenge that we face in Afghanistan. Jordan is extremely concerned at the security situation in Afghanistan, exemplified by the terrorist attack against the Parliament of Afghanistan this morning. We recognize the difficulties that the Afghan authorities are facing in maintaining security and controlling the situation. Accordingly, the international community and, particularly, neighbouring countries must continue to provide support to Afghanistan in its war against terrorism, and must support the Government's efforts in controlling the entire national territory. We therefore encourage international partners to reinforce and improve Afghanistan's capacities, in order to adequately address the situation.”

“Mr. Hmoud (Jordan) (spoke in Arabic): I would like at the outset to thank Mr. Haysom, Special Representative of the Secretary-General, for his briefing. Afghanistan is going through a crucial phase in its history. It is facing a series ofongoing, new and renewed challenges. Accordingly, the international community must work towards providing the necessary assistance to this country for a better future for its children. After many years of war, which has torn Afghanistan apart and destroyed its institutions - and during which the country has taken up a great deal of the international community's efforts and attention - the concept of threats to international peace and security and the our way of handling them have changed forever. Today, more than ever, Afghanistan needs the support of the international community and of the United Nations.”

“In coordination with the specialized agencies of the United Nations and non-government organizations, Jordan has established a reception centre for the children of refugees and a centre designed to promote an educational and preventive environment for children, along with the provision, with the help of UNICEF, of psychological and social assistance. We have opened the doors of our schools, public and private, to the children of Syrian refugees, because education is the best possible thing we can offer them so that they can build a better future. Finally, I would like to reiterate that Jordan supports the protection of children in armed conflict, the item on today's agenda.”

“It is essential to be seen to be objective and transparent when it comes to including States and entities that commit crimes against children, and to have a clear mechanism, based on criteria that guarantee the protection of children in every region of the world and ensure legal accountability for all those who commit such crimes, without exception. Jordan is working to offer Syrian refugee children a second chance at a better future and to ensure that they are protected and served as well as possible in the wake of all that they have endured in Syria and after the violations of their rights that they have suffered at the hands of the regime and the terrorist armed groups.”

“While the report mentionw the Violations committed by Israel against Palestinian children during the most recent aggression against Gaza, we were shocked to see that Israel's violations are not included in the list contained in the annex to the report, despite the fact that the report cites many other situations, entities and countries. That runs contrary to the principles of the Charter of the United Nations. Legal protection should be guaranteed at the same level to all, regardless of what side they are on.”

“We can ensure the protection of children, the most fragile members of society, by establishing links between the tasks involved in peacekeeping, increasing the numbers of specialized experts and making sure that they have the resources they need to ensure the best possible deployment of their capacities and skills in that field. The report of the Secretary-General (S/2015/409) paints a very grim picture of the violations committed against children in armed conflict at the international level. In our view, there is a great deal of work to be done if we are to ensure that those children have protection and support.”

“Crimes and abuses of children, including abduction, should be included in the mandates of sanctions committees, with the criminals' names added to the sanctions list and included in the annex to the Secretary-General's reports on children in armed conflict and those published by the relevant international organizations. Along with that, work must be done to document such crimes and violations in cooperation with national Governments and through the creation of investigative and fact-finding commissions on crimes committed against children from the beginning of each and every armed conflict. In order to ensure that these measures are implemented as well as possible, it is Vital that we promote cooperation between the Security Council and the Secretariat.”

“The international community must take measures aimed at working, with States' cooperation, to halt this phenomenon and at providing technical, logistical and material assistance, particularly for fragile States that do not have the capacity for protection and deterrence. Measures for deterring the perpetrators of these crimes include ensuring accountability and combating impunity, especially for crimes against children, whether through sexual violence or abduction, that are prohibited and punishable as war crimes and crimes against humanity under international law.”

“Reconciliation accords and instruments agreed on regionally or among regional or national parties can sometimes work to the detriment of other essential components, particularly those relating to accountability and criminal prosecution. In that regard, we would like to underscore the importance of a comprehensive political process that addresses all types ofthreats and security situations. It is crucial that the United Nations and the Security Council follow up such agreements to ensure that they do not fail to punish those responsible for crimes against civilians, particularly children, and that such criminals are not permitted impunity.”

“States should also institute the necessary judicial and legislative reforms, including by enacting and strengthening laws aimed at criminalizing any kind of attack on children. We should strengthen policies designed to deal with violations against children, ensure access to the medical and psychiatric services they will need and provide programmes for Victims' rehabilitation and social reintegration. Mrs. Adnin took the Chair. At the regional level, we emphasize the importance of States exchanging security and military intelligence, as well as the necessity for inter-State coordination. We are currently witnessing an increase in the flow of foreign fighters across national borders, as if the world had become an open space for them to carry out their terrorist acts in.”

“In that regard, I would like to highlight the steps it is essential to take if the problem is to be solved or limited, and which should continue to be improved in both the medium and long term. At the national level, we should raise awareness about the protection of children in armed conflict through education and social networks, which can play an important role in educating people from different social groups in countering the media publicity exploited by terrorist groups such as Daesh and Boko Haram in order to attract young people and children through their mistaken beliefs. The media constitute a weapon every bit as dangerous as the arms that such groups use, whether for terrorizing or killing civilians.”

“We must make every effort to work together to end the abduction of children and prevent it from spreading or being used in a systematic way in many armed conflicts. That will require efforts, first, at the national level, because the protection of civilians, and particularly children, is above all the responsibility of the State; secondly, at the regional level, through cooperation among States and common strategies to combat cross-border armed groups with a view to weakening them, containing them and limiting their spread; and, thirdly, at the international level, through the Security Council and the international legal bodies that address the abduction of children in armed conflicts in a broader context.”

“The number of children abducted in armed conflicts since 2002 has exceeded 25,000, and 95 per cent ofthem were abducted by non-State armed groups in an organized, structured manner so that they could be recruited or terrorized, or for the purposes of extortion. The deficiencies in the protection of civilians at all levels, particularly children in armed conflicts, result from a failure to address the threat posed by armed groups and the early-warning signs of armed conflicts as soon as they appear, or to impose the necessary legal limits. Those are the most important reasons for the increase in the number of attacks on children in armed conflicts, their abduction by armed groups and their forced participation in criminal and terrorist acts.”

“Mr. Hmoud (Jordan) (spoke in Arabic):1 would like first of all to welcome you, Mr. President, to the Security Council, and to thank you for giving us this opportunity to discuss the important issue of the protection of children in armed conflict. We also thank the Secretary-General, Mr. Ban Ki-moon; his Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict, Ms. Leila Zerrougui; the Deputy Executive Director of UNICEF, Ms. Yoka Brandt; and the representative of Facilitation for Peace and Development, Ms. Eunice Apio, for their very informative briefings. There has been an unprecedented increase in the number of crimes and violations committed against children in armed conflicts, particularly in the Middle East and Africa. Among those inhuman Violations we would highlight the crime of child abduction.”

“By way of conclusion, we would like to reiterate that Jordan, as an active contributor to 10 of the 16 peacekeeping operations throughout the world, will continue to support the efforts of the international community and the United Nations to develop a clear vision that offers viable solutions to address contemporary challenges and that enables us to be as prepared as possible to respond with wisdom and flexibility so as to effectively and firmly manage both the current and future challenges facing peacekeeping operations.”

“It is essential to underscore the need to put in writing the cooperation between United Nations and troop-contributing countries to develop and strengthen the guiding principles of the operational mechanisms of armies and police to guarantee planning and permanent contacts between them, by clearly defining the hierarchies and the lines of command and control in peacekeeping operations.”
2015-06-17 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7464 (2015) · source
“That leads directly to the other elements that impact peacekeeping operations, namely, the constraints imposed by troop-contributing countries, whether they be military or police contingents, on the operations in which they play an active part. Those troops often obey the orders of their national hierarchies rather than heeding the commanders of the operation itself, which impacts the way orders are followed and executed. Therefore, it is vital to take into account the legal responsibility of the United Nations.”

“However, because they do so in a temporary way, a permanent solution with respect to the protection of civilians lies first and foremost with the host State. That requires work to be carried out through two processes. The first includes security sector reform, strengthening the rule of law and greater responsibilty for violations of human rights law and international law. The second process must also guarantee responsibilty and national ownership of host States in order to create a solid foundation for the protection of civilians and to guarantee that it is lasting in nature. Indeed, the protection of civilians must take into account the strategic and tactical aspects of peacekeeping operations.”
2015-06-17 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7464 (2015) · source
“However, the guiding principles for the forces on the ground do not cover the protection of civilians in a systematic and comprehensive way. Very often, the guidelines have been based on the protection of military forces more than on the protection of civilians. That is understandable. However, there is a gap that needs to be considered in defining the mandates for peacekeeping operations so as to guarantee a balance between the ability to protect civilians and to protect the mandate of the mission itself with respect to the use of force to defend the mandate and to address emerging challenges. There can be no doubt that peacekeeping operations play an important role in the protection of civilians.”

“Furthermore, it is essential to closely look into the partnerships between the United Nations and international and regional organizations and to review peacekeeping mandates to ensure that they can have recourse to force as required, as well as to strengthen their intelligence-gathering capabilities. In that regard, we hope that the High-Level Independent Panel on Peace Operations will come up with recommendations that will enable the Organization to tackle current challenges such as the ones I have just mentioned, which while they may not threaten certain countries, pose a threat to the whole world. The protection of civilians is discussed in an idealistic way within the framework of peacekeeping operations, which is the main thrust of their action.”

“The activities of rapid intervention forces mean that civilian employees of peacekeeping operations sometimes become the targets of those asymmetric attacks and the victims of asymmetric threats. The Council must therefore develop a common understanding, in consultation with Member States and troop-contributing countries, for devising ways to address that problem and to uphold the legality of measures undertaken in that regard, as well as to implement mandates in an appropriate way to address unconventional, asymmetric challenges and threats.”

“That principle has been followed for the past few years without developing the concepts and necessary principles within the framework of peacekeeping operations mandates, and without awareness or understanding of the dynamic of peacekeeping operations on the ground or the root causes of conflicts that would lead to appropriate responses or put an end to the phenomenon that strengthens extremism, terrorism and transnational organized crime. Furthermore, it is essential to think about the use of force to maintain the mandates of peacekeeping operations within the framework of Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations in a transparent way that respects international law and international humanitarian law while continuing peacekeeping operations and protecting them from attacks, especially those forces active under Chapter VII.”

“The linkage among armed conflict, terrorism and organized crime has grown in a large number of countries, which requires peacekeeping operations to adapt rapidly and wisely to the new political and security environment that has taken hold throughout the world. We have observed that such emerging threats have forced peacekeeping operations to implement such principles under pressure and constraints, outside the framework of their mandates and without the foundations ofa clear strategy.”
2015-06-17 · UN Security Council · Security Council, S/PV.7464 (2015) · source
“Those developments include the creation of rapid intervention forces as part of many peacekeeping operations, such as the force present in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, as well as the ever more frequent use of force by peacekeepers, which poses a challenge to the most basic principles of peacekeeping. The primary challenge remains how to respond to non-State actors, who are present in many armed conflicts in the areas where UnitedNations peacekeeping operations are deployed. Such groups often operate in the absence of clear rules of engagement, use force without respect for international legal frameworks and hide among the civilian population. Their command structure is often complex, diffuse and multipronged.”

I would also like to thank the Force Commanders of the United Nations Mission in South Sudan and the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali, as well as the Chief of Staff of the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization, for their briefings. As many speakers have said, peacekeeping operations have undergone major changes over the past few years in order to keep up with security and political changes and to adapt to new environments in host States - environments that are often complex and complicated in nature in which there is sometimes no peace to keep, and no peace to build.”

“Fourthly, the Committees should maintain ongoing relationships and cooperate with the countries most seriously affected by terrorism by strengthening links with the permanent delegations, conducting visits and meeting with the authorities of those countries. Fifthly, we must respond in a comprehensive way to the challenges that terrorism poses. Terrorist groups may have different persuasions, but they share the same obscurantist way of thinking. Therefore, whether they intend to or not, they help each other. We must focus on all terrorist organizations for that very reason. Lastly, Jordan will continue playing its pioneering, central role in the fight against terrorism.”

We reaffirm the importance of cooperation and coordination among the three Committees. We warmly welcome the provisions to improve coordination among them as described by the Chair of the 1540 Committee. While they have the necessary political support for their roles, they sometimes lack sufficient financial resources to provide the necessary assistance. It will be essential to bolster the capacity of the Committees and their executive prerogatives with the provision of financial resources.”

“In that context, the meeting to be held in Madrid at the end of July is very important. The Committee's role should be to help assess countries' ability to implement the resolution and to assist them in strengthening their counter-terrorism abilities. We call on CTED to adopt such a strategy and to report to the Committee on the assistance programme it administers. I would now like to share some thoughts on the work of the Counter-Terrorism Committee. The fight against terrorism calls for ajoint effort. Many countries that wish to implement resolution 1373 (2001) are hampered by a lack of capacity. Providing assistance and filling the gaps for those countries should become a comprehensive part of the Committee's work.”

“Jordan considers the implementation of resolution 1540 (2004) extremely important, particularly in the context of the current conditions in the Arab region. At the beginning of this month we hosted a workshop for 17 Arab countries and 11 representatives ofregional and international organizations, as well as representatives of civil society, in a demonstration of my country's willingness to ensure the review's success and to help other Arab States to confront the challenge of terrorism and terrorist organizations' ability to access weapons of mass destruction. The Committee established pursuant to resolution 1373 (2001), concerning counter-terrorism, and its Executive Directorate (CTED) plays a very important part in fighting terrorism. I would specifically like to highlight the work of CTED with regard to foreign terrorist fighters.”

Concerning the work of the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1540 (2004), the military capacity of terrorist organizations, the increase in their financing sources and their control of large areas of territory all render their use of non-traditional weapons very real and possible, so it is crucial that countries fully comply with the provisions of resolution 1540 (2004). We welcome the fact that the resolution is scheduled for a comprehensive review. We have great expectations for the review and its examination of the gaps in the resolution's implementation. It is vital that we make use of that analysis to strengthen the role of the Committee and to fill those gaps.”

In that regard, we stress the importance of including on the list all those meeting the criteria outlined in resolution 1989 (2011), ensuring countries' full respect for the sanctions system and keeping the sanctions list properly updated and ensuring its fairness and transparency. That can be done by continually reviewing listed countries and the delisting requests submitted to the Ombudsperson. Besides that, there is the updating of the work of the Committee's Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team, which depends on the cooperation of the various countries concerned.”

Needless to say, that should in no way detract from the achievements of previous years, but we must be aware of the dangers coming from unconventional, non-traditional sources. We must make effective decisions that accord with the Charter of the United Nations and with international law in order to deal with this phenomenon. Concerning the Committee established pursuant to resolutions 1267 (1999) and 1989 (2011), concerning Al-Qaida and associated individuals and entities, we would like to emphasize its central role and that of the sanctions system.”

Despite all the international community's efforts, including those of the Counter-Terrorism Committee, that threat is growing, and in recent years we have seen the emergence of groups affiliated with Al-Qaida, as well as of dissident organizations such as Daesh. They now control large expanses of territory and are a threat to international peace and security, putting in jeopardy all the efforts deployed by the international community and the United Nations.”
