“In the meantime, Denmark supports a relatively short extension of the present mandate of the United Nations Office in Timor-Leste. Among other elements, a future United Nations mission would need to contain a robust policing and police-training element, assistance to the upcoming elections, and support for justice and reconciliation. On the latter issue, Denmark understands that the Secretary-General will soon issue a separate report. It will also be important that the humanitarian needs arising from the conflict, as well as the serious socio- economic problems that have been a contributing factor to the recent conflict, be rapidly addressed. Recent events are a strong indication that the international community needs to continue to provide strong support to Timor-Leste.”

“We welcome the efforts made by the Government of Timor-Leste to clarify responsibilities within the Government and to reach out to the dismissed soldiers in order to find a solution to the crisis. Political reconciliation is key to resolving the conflict, and we support the United Nations continued engagement in that effort. Denmark also fully supports the request for an independent investigation of recent events and calls for those responsible for the killings to be brought to justice. We thank the representative of Timor-Leste and the Secretary-General's Special Envoy for their remarks here today on the future United Nations presence in Timor-Leste. We look forward to receiving more detailed proposals from Timor-Leste and the Secretary-General as soon as they become available.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of Denmark. Denmark fully associates itself with the statement to be made shortly by the representative of Austria on behalf of the European Union. I will only add a few points. Denmark would like to pay tribute to the four States that so rapidly heeded Timor-Leste's call for assistance in restoring security to the country. We are grateful for their efforts, which have already contributed to calming the situation. Nevertheless, the security situation remains tense, and additional United Nations assistance will be required to help reorganize and rebuild Timor-Leste's security sector.”

“Denmark fully supports his request. We believe it to be both sensible and pragmatic at this critical juncture of the Tribunal's work. In my capacity as President of the Security Council for this month, I have circulated a draft resolution to that effect for the consideration of Council members. We hope to be able to adopt this draft resolution shortly. The Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda provide invaluable contributions in our collective fight against impunity, and they provide invaluable contributions in the maintenance of sustainable peace and stability in the former Yugoslavia and in Rwanda after two of the most abhorrent conflicts since the Second World War. Denmark will continue to actively follow the work of the Tribunals and looks forward to the next set of reports from them.”

“Full cooperation is critical to the Tribunals' ability to function. For the countries of the former Yugoslavia, it is also a precondition for their integration into European and trans-Atlantic structures. Secondly, Denmark supports the measures taken by the Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia to speed up the trials. I want to thank President Pocar for his leadership in that regard. These steps are necessary to keep the length of the trials within a reasonable time limit, and we trust that they can be taken without compromising either the legitimate needs of the victims or those of the Prosecutor in building up cases of command responsibility. Thirdly, the President of the Rwanda Tribunal has asked the Security Council and the General Assembly to extend the terms of its permanent judges until the end of 2008.”

“I shall now make a few comments in my capacity as the representative of Denmark. Denmark has always been, and remains, a firm supporter of the Tribunals for the Former Yugoslavia and Rwanda. I would like to make three points today. First, the transfer of the remaining high-level fugitives to The Hague and to Arusha is key in enabling the Tribunals to fulfil their tasks. We have all been aware of this for too long, with too little to show for it. Denmark reiterates its call on all countries - within and outside the respective regions - to cooperate fully, unconditionally and swiftly with the Tribunals. The Government of Serbia and, within Bosnia and Herzegovina, that of Republika Srpska are particularly well placed to ensure the apprehension of Mladic and Karadzic. We strongly encourage both Governments to act on this immediately.”

“In the view of Denmark, the Council could strike a better balance by taking a close look at both its listing and delisting procedures. Denmark has focused particularly on delisting. We presented a proposal in the 1267 Committee last year to establish an independent review mechanism - an ombudsman - to which individuals and entities on the Committee's list would have direct access. When petitioned, or on its own initiative, this mechanism would make independent recommendations to the Committee for its consideration. As is the case today, the Security Council will maintain its prerogative to decide on any delisting. At the same time, our proposal will provide listed individuals and entities with the right to access the mechanism directly, without a State as an intermediary. It would also provide for a review independent of the Committee.”

“In the fight against terrorism we often get the sense that we are walking on a razor's edge to strike the right balance between preventive and swift action against terrorists and adequate safeguards for the individual, not least for those unjustly targeted. Getting this balance right strengthens the legitimacy of the sanctions regime and thereby, in the View of Denmark, its efficiency. The Al-Qaida and Taliban sanctions regime remains as important as ever in the international fight against terrorism. But on various occasions States have expressed concern that it does not meet fundamental due process standards, thus indicating that the Council may not be getting the razor's edge balance exactly right. This issue demands the immediate attention of all members of the Security Council.”

“I would therefore like to thank Member States for their important contribution. That concludes my statement in my capacity as Chairman of the Counter-Terrorism Committee. I would now like to make the following statement in my national capacity. As members know, the Chairmen of the three counter-terrorism committees rarely speak in their national capacities at these briefings. I choose to do so today to reiterate a point which is very important to Denmark: the question of due process guarantees in the S/l'V.5446 1267 Committee. Before I proceed, however, I would like to fully associate Denmark with the statement of the European Union to be delivered shortly by the representative of Austria.”

“Finally, the Committee will begin its analysis of States' reporting on resolution 1624 (2005) in light of the requirement to report to the Council within a year of the adoption of that resolution - in other words, by 14 September 2006. I encourage all States that have not yet submitted a report on their 1624 implementation to do so as soon as possible in order to ensure that the analysis provided to the Security Council is based on as extensive reporting as possible. The implementation of resolution 1373 (2001) remains crucial in the international community's fight against terrorism. Developments since I reported last have shown once again that the Committee's main task remains vital and urgent. Support from and cooperation with Member States remains invaluable.”

“The goal is twofold - first, to ensure systematic, transparent and effective monitoring of States' implementation of resolution 1373 (2001), leading to the targeted and prioritized enhancement of States' implementation of the obligations and provisions in the resolution; and secondly, to ensure that requests for further reporting will be targeted, with a view to easing the reporting burden on States. Secondly, the Committee will continue to discuss how the visits to States can be more results-oriented, including through the design of a thorough follow-up process. Thirdly, the Committee will continue its discussions on how to ensure that we achieve concrete, measurable results through the facilitation of assistance, leading to results in enhanced implementation of resolution 1373 (2001).”

“The Committee is continuing its discussions on how to take into account, in the course of its activities, the fact that States must ensure that any measure taken to combat terrorism complies with all their obligations under international law, and that States should adopt such measures in accordance with international law, in particular human rights law, refugee law and humanitarian law. I would like to inform the Council that the Committee has now agreed on guidance for CTED in that regard. Before I conclude, let me take stock of the challenges ahead for the Committee. First of all, the Committee will spend some time testing its newly-developed analytical tool, both in and of itself and as a basis for enhanced dialogue with States on implementation.”

“With the help of donors, the region is now making a concerted effort to ensure that most of the Pacific Island Forum members bring their reporting to the Committee up to date before too long. That type of regional cooperation is very fruitful and I hope that other regions can be inspired by such cooperation, but I would also like to stress the corresponding commitment made on behalf of the Committee to the Pacific States that, if they update on reporting, the CTC will use that information to assist them in identifying priorities in their implementation of resolution 1373 (2001) and to facilitate assistance in areas where we have mutually agreed that there are such needs. The Committee counts on the cooperation of potential donors to achieve those results.”

“Also, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Pacific Island Forum for inviting me to participate in the recent meeting of its working group on counter-terrorism, which took place in Auckland, New Zealand, at the end of April. It was very interesting for me to hear the participants explain the successes and challenges they had encountered in implementing resolution 1373 (2001). I was impressed to learn how much those States - many of them among the smallest Members of the United Nations - have accomplished in recent years in their fight against terrorism. While many of those States are behind on reporting to the Committee, that has certainly not led to a halt in implementation.”

“I would like to encourage all potential donors to engage with CTED on those issues. The Committee will continue to discuss what more can be done to strengthen cooperation with donors, including through organizing an informal meeting with donors and assistance providers. As I mentioned at the beginning of my briefing, the Committee is also looking into how to strengthen cooperation with international, regional and subregional organizations. First of all, the Committee Sll'V.5446 has begun efforts to strengthen its relationship with several African regional and subregional organizations, as well as with the Caribbean Community. We have also embarked on preparations for the next and fifth special meeting of CTC with international, regional and subregional organizations. The goal is to ensure that the meeting will be results-oriented.”

“I have already touched upon some aspects of the Committee's ongoing work to facilitate technical assistance. As I informed the Council at the last briefing, the Committee has prepared policy guidance and adopted CTED's implementation plan in that regard. CTED, in turn, is now working on creating results through fulfilling the implementation plan. The Committee looks forward to hearing from CTED that the efforts have led to concrete, measurable outcomes. In the meantime, the Committee appreciates CTED's outreach to potential donors to establish who would be willing and interested in providing assistance, and in which area. Besides discussions with potential donors in New York, the practice has also been established of CTED's meeting with potential donors specifically in connection with visits to States.”

“Since I last reported to the Council, CTED has visited the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. I would like to express the Committee's gratitude to the Government in Skopje for its hospitality and spirit of cooperation. Also, the Committee has approved more country visits, and CTED is currently working with the States concerned regarding the preparations. I would like to thank those Governments for welcoming us. It is the Committee's hope and intention that those visits will prove helpful to States that are already engaged in the fight against terrorism. A key to success continues to be thorough follow-up to the visits. During the past months, the Committee has taken stock of the first visits and discussed what more can be done to ensure that the visits lead to concrete, measurable results.”

“Before I move on, I would also like to mention that the Committee has again contacted all States which are behind in their reporting to the Committee. I hope that those States will take some comfort in the Committee's updated working methods and that they will re-establish dialogue with the Committee. I would also urge States that might need assistance in preparing the report to let us know. Without a report, it is not possible for the Committee to identify priorities for further implementation, including possible needs for assistance, or to play a facilitating role in ensuring that such needs are filled. CTC's continuing visits to Member States, upon their consent, remain an important tool in our work. We continue to enhance our cooperation with the GS-led Counter-Terrorism Action Group.”
