  10. “My country is at the crossroads between Europe and the Middle East and bears the consequences of the unprecedented migration pressure generated by conflicts in the region and the expansion of Daesh. Besides addressing the consequences through measures, including those outlined in our national strategy on migration, asylum and integration, Bulgaria shares the view that its root causes should be immediately addressed. It is necessary to seek a lasting settlement of the conflicts in the Middle East and North Africa and to tackle human rights violations, dire socioeconomic situations and the lack of good governance. The President (spoke in Russian): I now give the floor to His Excellency Mr. Kristian Jensen, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Denmark.”

  11. “But violent extremism continues to expand, and we should start taking further measures that will produce the necessary effects, including in the countries of the Middle East and North Africa. Faced with such a grave situation, we believe that the United Nations could undertake further actions in stepping up international cooperation in countering terrorism. Bulgaria looks forward to the presentation of the Secretary-General's plan of action on preventing violent extremism. Following the Council's adoption of resolution 2178 (2014), on countering foreign terrorist fighters, Bulgaria has enacted legislation to amend the penal code and operational improvements with regard to travel documents. Measures also need to be taken to draft a strategy for countering terrorism, radicalization and extremism for the period 2015-2020.”

  12. “The strengthening of the reconciliation policy in Iraq and the need for promoting an inclusive political transition in Syria reminds us also of Libya, Yemen and other places where we hope for Governments and States that are indeed inclusive. As long as there is no peace in the Middle East, violent extremism will take advantage of the situation. The terrorist scourge of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) knows no borders. From Syria and Iraq, it is moving to Libya. It carries out attacks in Mali, Yemen, Tunisia and elsewhere. As a partner in the global coalition to counter ISIL, Bulgaria is working to degrade, and ultimately defeat, the threat it poses to the world.”

  13. “I now give the floor to His Excellency Mr. Daniel Mitov, Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Bulgaria. Mr. Mitov (Bulgaria) Today's debate is timely, as the Middle East and North Africa are going through a deep political and security crisis that has ushered in the expansion of violent extremism. In Iraq, the response to terrorists has been a process of reconciliation initiated by Prime Minister Al Abadi. Those efforts are a prerequisite for a united, stable and peaceful Iraq. In Syria, the issue of countering terrorism has unfortunately been manipulated by a regime that has used the extremist threat that it itself created and triggered to justify the violence exercised against its own people.”

I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I shall now give the floor to the other members of the Council.

  42. “Such attempts have already happened and have not led to anything good, as everyone here is aware. Combating the terrorist threat must go hand in hand with heightened efforts to resolve various conflict situations in the region, whether in Syria, Libya or Yemen. First and foremost, however, this applies to the longstanding stalemate in the Palestinian-Israeli question, which is fuelling extremist feelings on the Arab street. The Quartet of international mediators, together with Arab States and with the support of other United Nations Members, must acknowledge their responsibility for re-establishing direct talks between Israel and Palestine, on the basis of the concept of two States. Progress on that track would make a major contribution to ensuring stability and security for the peoples of the region.”

  43. “Since that time, the urgency of countering terrorist ideology has increased substantially. Russia's multi-ethnic and multireligious character gives us unique experience when it comes to peaceful coexistence among different ethnic groups and religious communities. We are ready to share our experience and to learn from our partners. Preventing terrorism, including in partnership with civil-society organizations, also entails addressing Violent extremism. We believe it fundamentally important that the initiatives now being proposed in this area be firmly based on international law, including respect for sovereignty and equality of States and non-interference in internal affairs. One cannot bandy about slogans to promote the fight against extremism in specific countries over the heads of legitimate Governments.”

  44. “We believe that it is necessary to include the Islamic State as a separate entity on the Security Council's counter-terrorism sanctions list. Any delay in addressing this clearly pressing issue would, of course, be counterproductive in terms of the effectiveness of United Nations counter-terrorism efforts. We call for more aggressively countering the threats posed by foreign terrorist fighters. We need urgently to establish a single database on such fighters, develop additional mechanisms for sharing information on their movements and put in place simplified procedures for their extradition. Preventive efforts are of particular importance. First and foremost, we need to counter incitement to terrorism in line with resolution 1624 (2005), adopted 10 years ago.”

  45. “Among their main sources are the illicit trade in oil and other mineral resources and illegal trafficking in drugs, weapons and cultural artefacts, as well as "donations" from sympathizers. In that connection, we call for more stringent implementation of the provisions of resolution 2199 (2015) with regard to drawing up a sanctions list of physical and legal entities that are trading with the Islamic State. There is also a need to improve the effectiveness of the Group of Experts of the Al-Qaida Sanctions Committee, systematically and while taking advantage of the potential of the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering and related regional structures. We also propose making States accountable for their implementation of resolution 2199 (2015) in a regular and systematic maner.”

  46. “On 30 September, following a request of the Syrian leadership, the President of Russia asked for and received the consent of the Federation Council to use the armed forces of the Russian Federation in the Syrian Arab Republic. I am referring here exclusively to the use of the Russian air force to carry out strikes against ISIL positions in Syria. We have informed the authorities of the United States and other members of the coalition established by it. We are prepared to set up open channels of communication to ensure the most effective fight against terrorist groups. The most important task is to counter the financing of terrorism. The ingenuity of terrorists in an effort to diversify their sources of income cannot but cause concern.”

  47. “While addressing the General Assembly recently (see A/70/PV.13), President Vladimir Putin proposed discussing the possibility of a Security Council resolution on coordinating all forces that want to stand up against the Islamic State and other terrorist groups. Today we will present to the members of the Council a draft resolution based on previously adopted Council resolutions, with the aim of aligning joint counter-terrorism efforts on the basis of the norms of international law. We expect a comprehensive discussion of this topic in the coming month. We are mindful of the growth of the threat posed by ISIL, and there is a need now to forge practical cooperation on the activities of all forces working to counter terrorism.”

  48. “Thirdly, there is a need for inclusive and balanced external support for the political process, including the participation of Russia, the United States of America, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan and Qatar. In that regard, we believe that the European Union has a useful role to play. China's involvement would also boost the chances for success. We believe that such an array of outside sponsors acting in unison would help Syrians reach agreement on the basis of common goals, that is, preventing the creation of an extremist caliphate and strengthening the Syrian State on the basis of national reconciliation and understanding.”

  49. “In planning joint action in the fight against ISIL, use could be made of the potential of such a Charter-established body as the Military Staff Committee. This is precisely a case in which the military expertise of the permanent members of the Security Council is needed, in the interest of maximum efficiency in counter-terrorist efforts in the region. Secondly, there is a need to step up progress on the intra-Syrian dialogue on the basis of the Geneva communique of 30 June 2012 (S/2012/522, annex). We support the efforts of the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General, Mr. Staffan de Mistura, and we are making our contribution to launching a political process that brings together representatives from the entire spectrum of opposition forces and the Government of the Syrian Arab Republic.”

  50. “In that connection, in our view, there is a clear understanding that the main threat is terrorist aggression, embodied, as it is, in the actions of ISIL. We believe that should be followed by consistent, practical steps in three key, interconnected areas. First, it is necessary to combine and coordinate the efforts of those who are able to make a real contribution to the fight against terrorism, namely, the armed forces of Syria and Iraq, the Kurdish militias, the armed ranks of the patriotic Syrian opposition - in short, anyone who opposes ISIL on the ground, as well as outside actors who in one way or another can support counter-terrrorism efforts in the region. It is essential that such coordination be based on decisions of the Security Council, in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations.”
