“I conclude by once again renewing the strong commitment of Panama to fighting against this form of modern slavery, without ignoring the value of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, as we see that the link between sustainable development and the promotion and protection of human rights as a means to confront the asymmetrical structural factors that fuel this scourge.”

“That is why the efforts of our national commission against trafficking in persons, together with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the International Organization for Migration, to strengthen mutual legal assistance mechanisms in the exchange of information that facilitates the investigation and prosecution of the crime of trafficking in persons has yielded significant results. This confirms our belief that action cannot be undertaken in isolation. We therefore welcome the agreement that has been signed with UNODC for the construction in Panama of the first shelter for victims oftrafficking in the region, which will meet the highest relevant international standards.”

“As a country of transit and destination for migrants, Panama has acted responsibly by enacting up-to-date legislation to address the phenomenon and its related activities, and is committed to the implementation of the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime; its Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially in Women and Children; its Protocol against the Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Sea and Air; and the Protocol of 2014 to the Convention Concerning Forced or Compulsory Labour.”

“In line with the United Nations Global Plan of Action to Combat Trafficking in Persons, adopted in 2010, Panama has implemented a set of specific actions to prevent human trafficking, prosecute traffickers, protect victims and establish partnerships to mobilize resources for cooperation. In terms of data collection, our biometric database made it possible to prevent people with links to criminal networks from entering the country or avoiding migratory controls.”

“In the current context, in which conflicts generate mass migration flows, and as we work towards the global compact for safe, orderly and regular migration, international cooperation efforts must address that serious issue through the holistic and fully unified approach that it demands ofus by focusing on its causes. For Panama, preventing and combating trafficking in persons is a priority of the citizen security strategy, designed to safeguard the human rights of all individuals and, at the same time, to protect the network of services of our country from actions of organized crime in order to prevent those services from being used for illicit activities, such as financing terrorism.”

“We have taken due note of the observations and recommendations contained in the report of the Secretary-General (S/2017/939) on trafficking in persons in armed conflict pursuant to resolution 2331 (2016) . We would underscore our clear concern over the need to focus analysis on the close links between the trafficking of children in conflict situations and the serious violations facing them. We therefore commend the Security Council for taking action in that regard. Panama echoes the strong condemnation of the Secretary-General yesterday following news reports that revealed the existence of slave markets in Libya, where the degrading auction of migrants and refugees is a shocking reality.”

“Panama has participated in the past three debates of the Security Council on this issue because it understands that collective responsibility is required to address a global phenomenon, which, together with all the related factors, jeopardizes the integrity, security, stability and economic, social and cultural development of our peoples. Clearly, resolution 2331 (2016), adopted unanimously by the Council almost a year ago, further underscored the intention of States to address any form of trafficking in human beings in conflict areas, understanding that that degrading practice constitutes a violation of the human rights of the victims. It undermines their human condition for the benefit of criminal networks.”

“Ms. Navarro (Panama) (spoke in Spanish): Allow me first of all to commend the initiative of the Italian presidency of the Security Council to convene this timely open debate. We also appreciate the initial contributions of the Secretary-General, the Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and the Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially in women and children, which make clear the current situation of a scourge that does not recognize borders and that, regrettably, with its various faces and manifestations, affects all our countries.”
