1. “Central to that is the implementation of resolution 2538 (2020), on women peacekeepers, a milestone resolution that recognizes the indispensable role of women in United Nations peacekeeping operations. We are proud to have introduced to the Security Council that resolution, which received the full support of the Council and the wider United Nations membership. We call upon the Council and the Secretariat to advance the implementation of resolution 2538 (2020) by promoting the full, effective and meaningful participation in peacekeeping operations of both uniformed and civilian women, including in senior leadership positions, and to continue incorporating their participation in future relevant resolutions, including peacekeeping mandate renewals. Thirdly, promoting women as mediators and negotiators is important.”

2. “Strengthening the reach and the capacity of national authority is therefore vital to facilitating access to justice and ensuring accountability. Victims of violence should also be provided with support beyond the courts, especially in regaining their confidence and role in society. We commend Governments that have put in place more protective legal and policy frameworks to protect women and children at risk. Secondly, there is a need to enhance the role of women peacekeepers, who play a strategic role, particularly in protecting and engaging women in the affected communities. Indonesia is committed to increasing the participation of women peacekeepers as an important strategy for addressing violence targeting women in conflict.”

3. “I take this opportunity to thank Norway for convening this important open debate, and I thank all briefers for their presentations. As we heard from the briefers, 22 years after the women and peace and security agenda was first introduced, violence targeting women and girls persists and has even worsened. I therefore reaffirm Indonesia’s commitment to fully and effectively implementing the women and peace and security agenda. On that note, I would like to highlight the following points. First, ensuring accountability in combating violence targeting women is crucial. The primary responsibility to prevent and address violence targeting women in conflict lies with national authorities. Governments must protect victims, with full respect for their human rights.”

4. “It should increase and further accelerate its efforts to see that its decisions are enforced, which is essential if global peace and security is to be maintained. The Maldives reaffirms its support for the Council, as well as for the Secretary- General, in all their ongoing efforts to bring lasting peace to the Middle East.”

5. “The Government of Maldives strongly condemns terrorist attacks in the region, including those targeting civilians, shipping routes and, most recently, two pumping stations on the Saudi Aramco East-West pipeline in Al-Dawadmi and Afif. These attacks threaten the security and stability of the region as well as the global economy. The scourge of terrorism is the biggest threat to global peace and security. It is a global problem that requires a global solution. The Maldives stands ready to assist international efforts to combat terrorism and counter violent extremism. The Security Council, whose task is to maintain international peace and security, must do more to ensure that its influence and legitimacy are not compromised.”

6. “The mass exodus of refugees has further exacerbated the humanitarian crisis facing the Syrian people. Yet the conflict is locked in a stalemate with no end in sight. My Government believes that the United Nations and the international community must do more to reinvigorate talks to reach a peaceful settlement of the conflict. The war in Yemen has affected millions of civilians, with children being the hardest hit. We must do more to help alleviate the dire situation of the most vulnerable. Peace and prosperity must be at the heart of the efforts to resolve the conflict, and peace must be seen as a prerequisite to development. The continued presence of conflicts in the region has bred terrorism and Violence, with implications extending beyond the Middle East to all parts of the world.”

7. “It is deeply troubling that while Israel, the occupying Power, seeks to further exploit, damage and deplete the natural resources in the occupied Palestinian territory, we still find ourselves in this Chamber today expressing our concerns about how little progress has been made on ending such actions. The Maldives calls on Israel to stop its attacks on Palestinian civilians, including women and children, and to fully implement the relevant Security Council resolutions on the question of Palestine. The Maldives also urges the Council to do more to bring lasting peace to the Palestinian people and the region. The ongoing conflict in Syria continues to result in human rights violations and humanitarian crises. This multilayered catastrophe in the Middle East has had dire consequences for international security.”

8. “The Government of Israel, the occupying Power, continues to place severe restrictions on the human rights of the people of Palestine, limiting the movement of people and goods into and out of the Gaza Strip, as well as accelerating the unlawful transfer of Israeli citizens to settlements in the occupied West Bank. The occupation stands in the way of every measure that would afford the Palestinians a modicum of dignity. I wish to reiterate my Government's position on adopting an international consensus on a two-State solution, with the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine within the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, where the Palestinian people may live in peace, dignity and prosperity.”

9. “I would like to thank South Africa for organizing today's important debate on the situation in the Middle East, including the question of Palestine. The Maldives remains deeply concerned about the situation in the Middle East and views the question of Palestine as particularly important. This year has witnessed a further deterioration in the human rights situation of the Palestinian people. The limited electricity supply in Gaza has compromised its water supply, sewage treatment and hospital operations, and Gaza now has one of the highest unemployment rates in the world.”
