  1. I would like to conclude by welcoming the adoption of resolution 2143 (2014) today, which demonstrates the Council's continued determination to address the problem in a comprehensive and by focusing on its most salient aspects.

  2. Combatting impunity is important not only for the purposes of prosecuting such crimes and bringing those responsible to justice, but also for ensuring sustainable peace, truth and reconciliation. Particular consideration should be given to internally displaced children in terms of ensuring their inalienable right of return and to the implications of illegal policies and practices in situations of foreign occupation for the protection of children's rights. In addition, determining the fate of children taken hostage and reported missing in situations of armed conflict, as well as searching for them and their reunification with families are other layers of the problem requiring urgent action.

  3. Important steps have been taken in a number of situations of armed conflict to achieve accountability for grave violations of children's rights, including the development of the international legal framework. However, serious challenges remain. Among them is the continued lack of proper attention and responses at both the international and regional levels to the violation of international humanitarian and human rights law in some situations of armed conflict. It is obvious that more resolute and targeted measures are required to protect children in situations of armed conflict and to end impunity for the most serious crimes of concern to the international community perpetrated against children.

  4. It is a well-known fact that today Azerbaijan continues to suffer from the presence of high numbers of refugees and displaced persons, many of whom are children. The consistent attention of the international community, in particular the United Nations, to the problem has been crucial in developing and applying measures to prevent and respond to violations and abuses committed against children. Azerbaijan remains committed to continuing to support the activities of existing United Nations mechanisms aimed at ensuring more effective protection for the rights of children and improving the situation of children affected by armed conflict.

  5. Azerbaijan remains deeply concerned by the negative impact of conflict on children and strongly condemns all violations of international law, international humanitarian law and human rights law committed against them. Azerbaijan's principled position with regard to the protection of civilians, including children, in situations of armed conflict is based on a strong interest in contributing to the protection of human right and fundamental freedoms and to the achievement of sustainable peace and development. In doing so, my country proceeds from its practical experience in addressing the devastating consequences of serious violations of international humanitarian and human rights law committed during the war waged against my country.

  6. I would like to thank you, Madam President, for convening this important and timely open debate on children and armed conflict. Let me also commend the active role and leadership of Luxembourg in advancing this issue in the work of the Security Council. I also wish to thank the Secretary-General, his Special Representative Leila Zerrougui, the Executive Director of UNICEF and the other speakers for their presentations and insights and for sharing experiences that can hardly leave anyone in this Chamber indifferent to the gross violations committed against children and their unspeakable suffering during armed conflict. We join the call for efforts to be stepped up at all levels to reduce the grave impact of conflicts on children and upholding justice by bringing to account those who perpetrate crimes against children.
