  1. That aspect is critical, since it will help to prevent sectarian Violence in the area and avoid any repetition of the events that occurred in Ramadi and Fallujah after they were liberated. Lastly, I would like to say that I believe that in the near future the Government of Iraq will announce ISIL's final defeat on Iraqi soil in this Chamber, something that we will all gladly welcome.

  2. Only an inclusive national reconciliation effort can heal the wounds that the country has sustained and help to achieve a lasting national settlement. In addition, proper attention must be given to the issue of accountability for all those who committed crimes against the civilian population during the conflict. There can be no place for Victor's justice, which would undermine the national reconciliation process. We also emphasize how important it is for the Government of Iraq, with the support of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq and its international partners, to conduct comprehensive security-sector reform, with the goal of establishing trained, professional defence and security forces committed to carrying out their duties on a basis of human rights and humanitarian principles.

  3. In that regard, we encourage the Government of Iraq to work with its partners on post-liberation initiatives aimed at rebuilding vital infrastructure, ensuring respect for human rights and international humanitarian law, focusing on national reconciliation and facilitating IDPs' safe and voluntary return to their homes. We realize the extent of the difficulties associated with such a momentous task and hope that the Iraqi Government will receive the assistance and support it so badly needs in mobilizing the resources it requires to address those challenges. Ukraine is encouraged by the commitment of Iraqi stakeholders, who have been working tirelessly on a national reconciliation process aimed at uniting the people of Iraq, regardless of their ethnicity or religion.

  4. It is a welcome and much- anticipated development that the Government of Iraq, together with the coalition forces, succeeded in its military operation. We hope that this victory over the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) will accelerate its final elimination from the region. However, those gains have come at a very high price, since the operation has had severe effects on civilians in the area. The humanitarian situation in the liberated city remains dire, since much of Mosul lies in ruins and a considerable number of people are still trapped in the old city. Beyond that, in the city's general vicinity, there is another serious challenge represented by the 700,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) who want to return to their homes but who in some cases have nothing left to return to.

  5. On 5 July, the President of the Security Council and the Secretary- General were informed, through document S/2017/580, about the joint decision of the joint investigation team countries that the prosecution and trial of those responsible for this atrocious crime would take place in the Netherlands. On 7 July, Ukraine and the Netherlands signed a bilateral treaty on international legal cooperation in relation to the downing of Flight MH-17. In that regard, we urge all States to take steps to ensure full compliance with Council resolution 2166 (2014), which demands that all States cooperate fully with efforts to establish accountability. Turning to the subject under consideration today, we note with great satisfaction that a significant milestone was reached in stabilizing Iraq with the recent liberation of Mosul.

  6. Before going into the subject matter of today's discussion, I would like to draw the attention of my colleagues around this table that today, 17 July, the world commemorates World Day for International Justice. Also, it was three years ago today that the world learned of the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH-l7. Today our thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones of every victim of that tragedy. We also appreciate the attention the Secretary-General gave to the matter in his statement today on this sad anniversary. To ensure justice for its victims and accountability for its perpetrators, important steps have been taken recently.
