1. “Almost half a million refugees from Ukraine have already been granted temporary protection in Czechia, 80 per cent of whom are women and children. We are working together with civil society and academia to reflect that new situation in the implementation of women and peace and security principles through our second national action plan. Women must have their seat at the table during all stages of peace dialogues — it is that simple. That includes representatives of civil society organizations and human right defenders. It includes all stages of peace dialogues, peacebuilding, peacekeeping, post- conflict reconstruction and accountability-seeking processes. Only working together will bring us closer to the peace and security we need.”

2. “The number of women involved in peace processes has not increased much. The world is facing many security challenges, for example, new crises, new conflicts, global health problems and climate change. Those are all obstacles to fulfilling the agenda. They amplify gender inequality and increase gender-based violence. Russia’s war is a serious violation of the Charter of the United Nations and of international law. It has cast a significant shadow over the progress made in implementing the women and peace and security agenda. Vulnerable civilians, including women and girls, are being killed every day. They are victims of horrible conflict-related sexual violence. Millions of people have fled Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian aggression one year ago. Czechia is one of the target countries.”

3. “Mr. Jurečka (Czechia): Czechia aligns itself with the statements to be delivered by the representative of the European Union and on behalf of the Group of Friends of Women, Peace and Security. Let me thank Mozambique for calling today’s meeting to remember the deep purpose of the first Security Council resolution on women and peace and security (resolution 1325 (2000)), which was adopted 23 years ago. As the Russian aggression against Ukraine continues, Czechia continues to stress the urgent need to truly work together to advance the women and peace and security agenda in practice. It is essential to integrate it into all aspects of the work of the Security Council. It is widely accepted that peace and security efforts are more sustainable when women fully and equally participate, but there is still a huge gap between words and actions.”
