  1. Fifthly, a comprehensive approach should be taken to understand the nature of conflicts. Broad, transparent and open communication, in particular with the involvement of regional organizations, should be the norm in order to allow the Council to develop a more comprehensive global vision that allows its members to take better decisions. Improving the Council’s working methods is a long-term task. Algeria stands ready to contribute to it. We are fully convinced that by constantly improving its working methods, the Council will be able to better carry out its tasks pursuant to the Charter of the United Nations.

  2. In that context, as a candidate for the membership of the Security Council for the period 2024-2025, Algeria calls for strengthening interaction between the Informal Working Group of the Security Council on Documentation and Other Procedural Questions and States that are preparing to join the Council so that they are better prepared and able to participate more effectively in the Council’s work. Fourthly, it is essential for the Council to remain united. Its unity is what allowed it to face the challenges brought by the pandemic. We underscore the importance of the Council’s unity, in particular during decision-taking amid a complex world and increased challenges. It is imperative to overcome differences between Member States through dialogue and finding solutions that meet our common interests and strengthen genuine multilateralism.

  3. However, there are shortcomings that must be addressed, in particular ensuring that public debates held in a virtual format allow for the broadest possible participation of States Members of the United Nations. However, the measures adopted during that period should not become rules for working methods under ordinary circumstances. Rather, they should be exclusively employed in similar circumstances. Thirdly, it is important to maintain interaction with States that are not members of the Council, in accordance with Article 24 of the Charter of the United Nations, which states that the Council acts on their behalf. That requires full transparency in dealing between the Council and Member States.

  4. In the context of today’s debate, I would like to underscore the following points that we consider key in terms of building upon the practices that were adopted during the pandemic and to ensure that the Council is ready to face such circumstances in future. First, the Council must be flexible. That flexibility was of great importance during the pandemic and a decisive factor in the Council’s effectiveness. Secondly, the use of modern technologies has become a new reality. Ensuring the continuity of the Council’s work was the greatest challenge during the pandemic, and that challenge was addressed thanks to the technological capacity of the Secretariat and the political will of Member States.

  5. Advising on best practices is not an end in itself; rather, best practices constitute a means to strengthen the effectiveness of the Council and guarantee implementation, given their impact on the Council’s ability to effectively and efficiently carry out its mandate. Today’s meeting on the working methods of the Security Council is taking place at a time when the world is recovering to various degrees from the effects of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. We must draw lessons and move forward towards becoming a United Nations that carries out its responsibilities with maximum efficiency and reflects our commitment to the values and objectives of multilateral action.

  6. Mr. Koudri (Algeria) (spoke in Arabic): At the outset, I would like to take this opportunity to once again express the congratulations of my country’s delegation to the Republic of Albania on its wise leadership of the work of the Security Council this month. I also wish to thank the briefers for their comprehensive presentations. In recent years the Council has made tireless efforts to strengthen its working methods and increase transparency, in particular through the Informal Working Group on Documentation and Other Procedural Questions. Presidential note S/2017/507 was also an important milestone in improving the Council’s working methods. Improving the Council’s working methods is an ongoing process. It is a collective endeavour undertaken by the members of the Council as well as all Member States.
