  1. “In conclusion, I would like to reaffirm my country’s commitment to further contributing to advancing the women and peace and security agenda.”

  2. “Ensuring women’s meaningful participation in all decision-making processes, eradicating all forms of violence against women, both online and offline, and upholding women’s rights remain desirable goals that have yet to be achieved. The protection of women against conflict-related violence is another key component of the women and peace and security agenda that requires due attention. More than half of the population fleeing the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine and seeking refuge in the Republic of Moldova are women and children. My country remains committed to providing all the necessary support, be it in the form of shelter, psychological aid or social inclusion assistance for those who choose to stay in the Republic of Moldova.”

  3. “The programme and the related action plan are aimed at achieving cohesion between the actors involved in the security and defence sectors in order to reduce stereotypes and barriers in the field; support the greater representation of women in all sectoral areas of security and defence; enhance the effectiveness of mechanisms for the prevention, reporting and investigation of cases of violence; increase the share of women in international peacekeeping missions; and facilitate the equal participation of women and men at all stages of conflict resolution. Although much progress has been achieved so far, gender inequalities still persist and gender norms, and stereotypes still prevail in many countries around the globe.”

  4. “At the national level, the Republic of Moldova has made important progress in advancing gender equality in recent years. Women have gradually but steadily increased their representation in leadership and decision-making processes at all levels and in many areas. To ensure a comprehensive, effective and inclusive approach to gender equality and equity between women and men as actors with a positive, active role in strengthening participation, prevention, protection and rehabilitation in the security and defence sector, in March the Moldovan Government adopted a programme for the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000) for the period from 2023 to 2027 and an action plan for its implementation.”

  5. “While the Secretary-General’s New Agenda for Peace highlights the ways that gender plays a major role across international peace and security issues, his Agenda for Disarmament also recognizes that a gender perspective makes arms control, non-proliferation and disarmament more effective. In fully acknowledging the role of women in peace processes and peacekeeping, the Republic of Moldova reiterates its resolve to contribute to the women and peace and security agenda. Through our appointments in peacekeeping missions, we strive to meet the 20 per cent target of women deployed in United Nations peace operations. We also support the integration of a gender perspective in the work of the First Committee and across the disarmament machinery.”

  6. “Mr. Leucă (Republic of Moldova): The Republic of Moldova welcomes today’s open debate on women and peace and security, as we recognize women’s vital role in conflict prevention, conflict management and peacebuilding. My delegation aligns itself with the statements delivered earlier on behalf of the European Union and the Group of Friends of Women, Peace and Security. Promoting a gender perspective in the area of peace and security is intrinsic to larger efforts aimed at advancing women’s empowerment and gender equality, which are indispensable components in achieving sustainable development and lasting peace.”

  7. “Again, in relation to what happened today, we must mention that for a couple of hours, until our technical teams dealt with the consequences of the blackout, electricity, water supplies and Internet and mobile phone connections were severely disrupted and were unavailable in the Republic of Moldova. We reiterate our strong call on Russia to immediately cease the military aggression, withdraw its military forces from sovereign Ukrainian territory, fully comply with its obligations under international law, including international humanitarian law, and uphold human rights. The Republic of Moldova reaffirms its unwavering support for Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders, as we stand in solidarity to defend the very same values of freedom, liberty and democracy.”

  8. “Our delegation would like to remind the members of the Security Council that, at the end of October, missile debris landed in the northern village of Naslavcea, located at the border with Ukraine, after a Russian fusillade was intercepted by air defences in neighbouring Ukraine. Thankfully, there were no civilian casualties, but the windows of several residential homes were shattered, creating a great deal of fear among the local population. Those egregious incidents highlight one thing: the war should stop now, in line with the provisions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, to prevent the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of the war, with the ultimate goal of restoring peace in Ukraine.”

  9. “The spillover effects of the war against Ukraine are increasingly felt in the neighbouring countries, including the Republic of Moldova. The Russian aggression against Ukraine has far deeper implications for the Republic of Moldova’s security and stability. The continued attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure again left the Republic of Moldova in darkness, following a similar incident on 15 November. More than 50 per cent of the country was left without electricity. There were massive blackouts across the country. The water supply was also affected in the pumps that were put out of order.”

  10. “The Republic of Moldova condemns in the strongest terms the war against Ukraine. We stand in full solidarity with the Ukrainian people and reiterate our support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders. The brutal war continues to cause unforeseen human losses and the significant destruction of civilian and energy infrastructure, worsening the overall humanitarian situation. We are deeply concerned by the immense human suffering, which is turning into a huge human tragedy as the war continues to ravage Ukraine and its people. Russia’s war in Ukraine is killing people and is destroying residential blocks and critical infrastructure, especially before the winter period.”

  11. “Mr. Leucă (Republic of Moldova): The Republic of Moldova joins previous delegations in expressing its strong condemnation in connection with the recent massive attack on Ukraine’s civilian and energy infrastructure, which triggered further destruction and continued human suffering. We welcome the statement made by President Zelenskyy. We thank Under- Secretary-General Rosemary DiCarlo for her briefing on the matter. For more than nine months now, our neighbouring country, Ukraine, has been defending its freedom, sovereignty and territorial integrity from the Russian Federation’s unprovoked war of aggression, which has triggered the largest humanitarian and refugee crisis in Europe, prompted global food shortages and an economic downturn and deepened the European energy crisis.”
