“All the relevant parties must therefore abide by resolution 2166 (2014), which demands that an end be put to military activities in areas near the crash site in order to guarantee the safety and security of the international investigation. We urge all parties to exercise restraint and not to resort to hostile acts or engage in provocative actions. It is also essential that they distance themselves from any hate speech and other wrong type of speech to ensure that displaced persons can return to their homes as quickly as possible.”

“Jordan welcomes the progress achieved by the Ukrainian authorities on the implementation of the recommendations contained in the previous three reports. We call on the Ukrainian authorities to devote greater efforts to promoting the rule of law and human rights, as outlined in the most recent report. We also call on them to work to reform the civilian and security sectors. Similarly, it is essential to be mindful of the concerns of minorities and groups whose primary language is not Ukrainian, in order to achieve a democratic, pluralistic society in which all citizens can enjoy their full rights. Jordan expresses its concern regarding the deterioration of the security situation in eastern Ukraine and its impact on the investigation of the crash site of the Malaysian aeroplane.”

“Jordan would like to express its concerns regarding the wide scale chaos and terror and the intimidation, arrests and executions of civilians in eastern Ukraine, as noted in the report, which have resulted in the displacement of a great number of civilians. We would like to reiterate the need for the Ukrainian Government to protect civilians in keeping with international law and applicable international humanitarian norms. We urge the parties to avoid targeting civilians or carrying out reprisals against them and to protect the most vulnerable categories of the population, including children. We urge all parties that possess some sort of influence in Ukraine to work to put an end to the deterioration of the situation in order to create an environment conducive to a political solution to the conflict.”

“Mr. Khair (Jordan) (spoke in Arabic): I would like to thank Mr. Simonovie for his briefing. Jordan has taken note of the contents of the fourth report of the United Nations human rights monitoring mission in Ukraine and the recommendations it contains. In that respect, we would like to express our support for the United Nations efforts and those of the Secretary-General to achieve a peaceful political solution to the conflict in Ukraine. We also urge all parties in Ukraine to cooperate with the United Nations human rights monitoring mission and to guarantee the freedom ofits members and their safe and secure access to the various sites throughout Ukraine.”

“The demand for personnel, equipment and enabling assets for United Nations peacekeeping is thus likely to continue, and even grow. One should note that enhancing the working methods of the Security Council and its efficiency, transparency, openness, consistency and inclusiveness in the decision-making process is essential to sustaining the confidence and contribution of the current troop- and police- contributing countries in the Council. Furthermore, it can also contribute to broadening the base of contributors to United Nations peacekeeping in order to enhance the collective burden-sharing and to meet the future requirements of United Nations peacekeeping. Therefore, we encourage Council members to induce real and systematic change in its working methods. This change is absolutely necessary and certainly achievable.”

“The experience and expertise of the troop- and police-contributing countries can substantially assist the Council in making appropriate, effective and timely decisions on United Nations peacekeeping operations. Therefore, meaningful and substantial consultation should continue to be held between the Security Council, the Secretariat and troop- contributing countries, including at the request of troop-contributing countries and during the entire life cycle of the peacekeeping missions. I need not reiterate the importance of these consultations to the troop- and police-contributing countries, in particular when it comes to the safety and security of their troops. United Nations peacekeeping remains one of the international community's most effective tools for maintaining international peace and security.”

“We also encourage the President of the Security Council to brief the members of the C-34 during its sessions and, when appropriate, on the major developments and initiatives regarding peacekeeping in the Council. This will help to achieve more coordinated joint action. In the same vein, the President of the Security Council can arrange regular meetings with regional groups such as the Non-Aligned Movement, the European Union and any other interested groups that contribute to peacekeeping, as well as regional organizations. Strengthening consultation with troop- contributing countries should remain a priority for the Council's members.”

“In this regard, we encourage the Security Council to continue, deepen and expand the practice of holding thematic debates and open meetings related to peacekeeping, which allows the wider membership to contribute with their perspectives and ideas. These meetings should include input from the field, for example by the special representatives of the Secretary-General. This practice has proven to be greatly beneficial, as we witnessed in the Council's debate on transition and exit strategies, held under the French presidency (see S/PV.6270). These meetings should also result in concrete advice or guidance by the Council based on the proposals of the participants and without prejudice to the role of the Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations (C-34).”

“Yet, if this positive momentum is to be maintained and further fostered, the Council should ensure the full and effective implementation of resolution 1353 (2001) and presidential statement S/PRST/2009/24, which provide a framework for cooperation between the Security Council, the troop- and police-contributing countries, and the Secretariat. The consultation mechanisms and the detailed procedures laid out in these important reference documents should be optimally utilized so as to forge a stronger relationship between the Security Council and the troop- and police-contributing countries. The sorely needed commitment of the wider membership to United Nations peacekeeping can be further strengthened by holding open, public meetings.”

“Another was the high-level meeting on peacekeeping held by the President of the United States, which reaffirmed the importance of renewing and strengthening cooperation among all the stakeholders, including the members of the Security Council and troop-contributing countries, as the only way to respond to the ever-growing challenges of United Nations peacekeeping. By all accounts, these positive developments have allowed for a high-quality interactive dialogue among the relevant actors, and resulted in a great deal of goodwill and tangible change in the working methods.”

“The Council has made noteworthy commitments and begun to put them into action. This can be seen in the holding of various open and inclusive thematic debates on peacekeeping issues, and also in the valuable work of the Working Group on Peacekeeping Operations, chaired by Japan, which offers a forum for in-depth and interactive discussions. Another significant positive development was the evolution of the French and British initiative on managing peacekeeping operations, which emphasized the importance of engaging with troop- and police- contributing countries.”

“I wish to extend the sincere appreciation of my delegation, Mr. President, for your initiative to hold this very useful and timely open debate on the implementation of the note contained in document S/2006/507. We are also very grateful for the very important concept paper that you have circulated. Jordan associates itself with the statements made by the Permanent Representative of Liechtenstein on behalf of the group of five small countries and by the representative of Egypt on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement. Since Jordan is a major troop- and police- contributing country, I shall focus my comments on the working methods of the Security Council in the area of United Nations peacekeeping. Progress was achieved last year in enhancing the working methods of the Security Council when dealing with peacekeeping-related issues.”
