  1. “In conclusion, I would like to stress that Estonia welcomes the work of the Secretary-General in the field of counter-terrorism and countering violent extremism, especially his efforts to prepare an action plan for preventing violent extremism, as well as those of the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate, among others, for organizing a full set of international meetings on this important subject throughout the year.”

  2. “There is one more aspect to add to this. It is true that today these phenomena all frequently appear in the broader Middle East, where the religion of Islam is unfortunately used to conceal terrorist goals. But we must address the issue more widely. As a global player, the United Nations should continue with its general approach of tackling terrorism and violent extremism everywhere they emerge and of addressing terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, regardless of its religious, political, historical or ethnic background and motivation.”

  3. “Estonia supports the existing coalition and its working groups, and cooperation should continue within that framework. Terrorism needs a global, unified and consistent response. Only intensive, close and well-coordinated cooperation between nations and international organizations can bring concrete results. It is also clear that long-term stability and putting an end to every kind of terrorism and violent extremism in the Middle East and North Africa can be achieved only by addressing the ongoing tensions between various non-extremist political, ethnic and religious groups. Political solutions to the ongoing conflicts in Syria, Libya and Yemen will be key to our ability to wage a more effective fight against ISIL and other extremists. For that to happen, we must support the ongoing efforts of the United Nations.”

  4. “Our shared aim is the establishment of peace and security in the Middle East and North Africa by effectively countering the terrorist threat in the region caused by ISIL and other groups. Yesterday, in a reflection of the international community's dedication to addressing the terrorist threat, we held a summit of the international coalition for countering ISIL. We welcome that approach, since ISIL is unquestionably the biggest and most complicated terrorist threat to peace and security in the Middle East, North Africa and beyond. We must stop this aggressive, brutal movement, which is killing innocent people and resulting in huge waves of refugees. While we stress the importance of international cooperation in combating ISIL, we should use our resources and capabilities effectively and avoid the danger of acting on parallel tracks.”

  5. “Like many nations, Estonia is gravely concerned about the recent wave of aggressive terrorism and violent extremism. Following President Obama's initiative, we gathered in this Chamber in September (see S/PV.7272) to discuss various threats posed by terrorists, especially the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), and to stress the global and comprehensive role of the United Nations in countering terrorism and radical extremism. The main outcome of that meeting was the Council's adoption of resolution 2178 (2014), aimed at blocking funding for terrorist groups and the recruitment and travel of foreign terrorist fighters. Today we can take stock of how that important resolution is being implemented. In Estonia, we have now almost completed the incorporation of the resolution's terms and requirements into our national legislation.”
