  1. “All aspects of this integrated approach call for greater coordination between all States Members of the United Nations, specifically the members ofthe Security Council, the Department of Peacekeeping Operations, the Working Group on Children and Armed Conflict, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General, the United Nations country teams on the ground and, of course, the Human Rights Council. It is an honour for Kazakhstan to have been elected to serve on the Council for the years 2017 and 2018. We pledge to undertake that responsibility with the utmost seriousness, and we see upholding the rights, dignity and protection of children in time of conflict as a most sacred mission.”

  2. “Child protection should also be an integral element of all peace processes. Of late we have learned of despicable plans of the self-proclaimed group called the Islamic State in Iraq and the Shams, or Da'esh, to massively use children to train future terrorists. These are absolutely reprehensible and unacceptable plans, and we should respond in a united and global manner to foil them. Another aspect of this issue is mass migration and refugee flows. In the case of mass refugee flows, States of origin, transit and destination must be held accountable to fulfil their obligations to uphold the rights of children.”

  3. “As part of our school curriculum, we focus on interfaith and inter-ethnic education in order to form a national identity based on the shared human values of tolerance in a global civilization, and thereby prevent violent extremism. We would like to suggest the following recommendations for strengthening the capacity of the United Nations to protect children in armed conflict. Thia grave situation demands that a child-protection mandate be incorporated into the work of the Security Council and of peacekeeping and political missions, with dedicated child-protection capacity at every level. Intensive special training of troops, police and civilian personnel before deployment would ensure effective detection, tracing, rescue and rehabilitation operations, as well as monitoring and reporting procedures on behalf of child victims.”

  4. “Realizing the important role that education can play in promoting peace and stability, we have allocated a total of more than $53 million for various humanitarian projects in Afghanistan. Our record of assistance includes the construction of schools and hospitals in that country and the funding of annual scholarships for Afghan students. As a State fully committed to its international obligations, Kazakhstan ratified, in July 2011, the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and accordingly adapted its own national Children's Rights Act. We also introduced legal measures to prohibit the enlistment of persons under the age of 18 or their use as mercenaries, and strengthened the relevant provisions of our national criminal code.”

  5. “We believe that the machinery of the non-governmental organization community, such as Watchlist on Children and Armed Conflict, Save the Children Alliance and the Geneva Call, should be mobilized to get more non-State actors to join the latter's "Deed of Commitment". We are convinced that every effort should be made to protect schools, hospitals and humanitarian facilities from attacks in order to ensure safe access to education and health care. In that regard, my country co-sponsored resolution 2286 (2016), recently adopted on this matter. Kazakhstan has also endorsed the Safe Schools Declaration and calls on parties to conflicts to uphold its Guidelines for Protecting Schools and Universities from Military Use during Armed Conflict.”

  6. “Despite all international action and increased global concern, children continue to be disproportionately affected during and in the aftermath of conflicts. This situation calls for strong and urgent action by Member States. My country fully endorses UNICEF's Children, Not Soldiers campaign and urges the speedy and full implementation of its action plans designed to end violations against children. We call for increased political will and the commitment of Member States to shifting to a broader perspective by sustaining long-term rehabilitation and reintegration of children, child soldiers and, especially, girls into normal life. Education programmes, vocational training and adequate psychological support need to be integrated so that former child soldiers are treated as victims rather than security threats.”

  7. “Let me first of all commend Malaysia on assuming the presidency of the Security Council for the current month. I would like to join in thanking Ambassador Ramlan Bin Ibrahim for convening this timely and important open debate to address the grave violations against children in armed conflicts. I would like to formally thank the Secretary-General, whom I saw a few moments ago, for his insightful remarks earlier and for his tireless and sincere efforts to address this painful issue. My delegation commends Ms. Leila Zerrougui, Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict, Mr. Anthony Lake, Executive Director of UNICEF, whom I was able to congratulate personally, and the Security Council Working Group on Children and Armed Conflict for their tireless efforts to tackle this problem.”

  8. “It is necessary to create an agreed-on list of terrorist organizations, at which point the Security Council alone should have a mandate to outlaw them. In conclusion, we reiterate our commitment to the collective efforts to fight international terrorism and to ensure peace in the Middle East, based on freedom and justice for all.”

  9. “While recognizing terrorism as a global threat, we need to establish a counter-terrorism coalition led by the United Nations and to develop a common mechanism to defeat this evil and bring its perpetrators and their supporters to justice. The current United Nations mechanisms aimed at countering terrorism, including the Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy, should be made legally binding through the adoption of relevant Security Council resolutions. Two days ago, in his remarks at the general debate of the General Assembly (see A/70/PV.13), my President called for the establishment of a global anti-terrorist network under the auspices of the United Nations. We will lobby strongly for and support that initiative and will ask every Member State to support it.”

  10. “We are confident that spiritual and religious leaders play a significant role in fostering inter-ethnic and interreligious harmony and mutual respect, which is why Kazakhstan convenes and hosts the triennial Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, which provides a platform for dialogue among religious and political leaders for the sake of peace. In July, Kazakhstan hosted a regional conference on countering violent extremism to which we invited representatives from the countries of Central Asia, China, Iran, Pakistan, India and the republics of the Caucasus. We believe that all these things are a symbol of our sincere contribution to a united fight against the evils of terrorism.”

  11. “We do not interfere; we simply provide a platform in the hope that Syrians themselves will find a road to peace and reconciliation. In 1992, in an effort to ensure peace and security in the entire Asian region, Kazakhstan initiated the Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia (CICA), a unique pan-continental security forum for implementing confidence-building measures and forging and enhancing political dialogue and interaction aimed at achieving peace and stability in Asia. Today, CICA stretches from Cairo to Seoul and unites 26 countries from every subregion of the continent.”

  12. “A good illustration of that is that more than 200 Kazakh citizens are fighting in the area of Syria and Iraq. We support the efforts by the United Nations, the League of Arab States, the United States of America, Russia and other stakeholders. Kazakhstan firmly believes that the crisis should be resolved only through genuine political dialogue among all Syrian parties, with the unbiased support of external actors. In May Kazakhstan hosted a meeting of Syrian opposition leaders, at their request. The negotiations were based on the following key principles: respect for the Geneva process, the condemnation of all forms of terrorism and a collective call to end foreign paramilitary involvement. In two days' time, the same groups will meet again in Kazakhstan for a second round.”

  13. “As we celebrate the seventieth anniversary of the United Nations, let us remind ourselves of the events that humankind had to endure in the last century, including two world wars and many revolutions. The tragedy that we all had to go through is the permanent impulse pushing us to work constantly to achieve peace and security. The Arab Spring once again proved that revolutions only hinder human development, propel societies backwards and damage inter-State relations. We must all reject the unconstitutional and illegal use ofmilitary force, including external foreign military interventions, which lead only to the destruction of statehood. The humanitarian disaster in Syria is no longer just a regional issue. The crisis has spread far beyond the Middle East.”

  14. “Kazakhstan recognizes the Palestinian people's legitimate right to self-determination and strongly supports the creation of an independent State of Palestine, coexisting peacefully with Israel within its 1967 borders. We also support Palestine's full-fledged membership in the United Nations, and we welcome today's ceremony in which the Palestinian flag was raised at United Nations Headquarters. We see a two-State solution as the only viable option for lasting peace, and we call on Israeli and Palestinian leaders to demonstrate political responsibility and goodwill in order to reach a historic peace agreement that meets the legitimate aspirations of their peoples.”

  15. “Mr. Idrissov (Kazakhstan) (spoke in Russian): Thank you very much, Mr. President, for giving me the floor, and please pass on my country's gratitude to Mr. Lavrov for his initiative in convening this meeting for an open debate on some of today's most urgent and pressing issues. (spoke in English) As we continue to witness unprecedented crises of grave magnitude in the Middle East and North Africa, we believe that now is the time to jointly address those issues. For decades the situation in the region has been a major factor in the destabilization of global security. We are absolutely sure that the current situation in the Middle East will start to seriously improve only if the Palestinian issue is resolved.”
