“China is one of the first countries to submit its national report. We hope that report will afford an opportunity for others to gain comprehensive knowledge of our efforts in combating the trafficking of weapons of mass destruction. China will continue to implement resolution 1540 (2004) in good faith and will make its own contribution to the work of the Committee.”

“Security Council resolution 1540 (2004) is significant for enhancing international cooperation in addressing the problem of the illicit trafficking in nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons and their means of delivery and related materials by non-State actors and in preventing the further proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. China hopes that, in the implementation of the resolution, States will strive to achieve the goal of non- proliferation by peaceful means and enter into international cooperation on the basis of equality and trust and in strict accordance with international law. We also hope that the Committee will consider its national reports in a fair, transparent and cooperative manner and will hire more experts from developing countries to assist in its work.”

“Mr. Li Song (China) (spoke in Chinese): The Chinese delegation would like to thank Ambassador Motoc for briefing us on the work of the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1540 (2004). We appreciate the work he has done in his capacity as Chairman of that Committee. Over the past seven months since the adoption of resolution 1540 (2004) by the Council on 28 April this year, the 1540 Committee has made encouraging progress in its work. With about 90 countries having submitted their initial reports, the Committee will begin its considerations very soon.”
