  2. As a nation having experienced untold losses caused by wars, Viet Nam always supports the common efforts of the international community to prevent wars and protect peace. This is also the consistent guiding principle of Viet Nam in its participation in the work of the Security Council. With that spirit, we are ready to share experience and play an active role in the undertaking that we are discussing today. I now resume my function as President of the Council. I give the floor to the representative of Liechtenstein.

  3. In 1977, shortly after the end of the war and national reunification, the United Nations General Assembly adopted resolution 32/3 to call on countries and international organizations to help Viet Nam in its reconstruction efforts. In the past 30 years, the United Nations and other international organizations and countries have effectively carried out many development projects to assist Viet Nam, including those aimed at meeting the basic needs of women and ensuring their equal participation in all aspects of socio-political life in Viet Nam. On behalf of the Government and people of Viet Nam, I take this opportunity to express our deep gratitude to the United Nations and countries and development partners for their valuable support in the processes of healing the war wounds and of reform and development.

  4. The State and society need to pay full attention to both civilian women and those who served in armed forces or were otherwise involved in military activities. Thirdly, the United Nations system has a special role to play in conflict settlement and post-conflict reconstruction, as mandated by the Member States. It has gained experience and knowledge in various fields. It is essential to promote local governments and people's ownership. Assistance may take different forms depending on the specific conditions of each country. It is necessary to have close coordination among United Nations bodies and between the United Nations and other partners.

  5. First, we need to fully recognize the primacy of eliminating the causes of conflicts and preventing and peacefully resolving international disputes. Measures to protect the rights of women and girls must be combined with promotion of their role in ending conflicts and in post-conflict reconstruction. The early integration of their priorities into the reconstruction efforts will create favourable preconditions for the coherent and long-term implementation of the necessary measures. Secondly, the reconstruction process requires comprehensive efforts to meet people's basic needs in food, housing, health care, education, dealing with psychological shocks, restoration of infrastructure and consolidation of social institutions, including the important role of the family.

  6. This includes women's limited contributions to peacebuilding owing to the lack of opportunities for their participation in policymaking and to the shortage of financial resources required for an effective response to their pressing needs. In order to achieve tangible results, resolution 1325 (2000), resolution 1820 (2008) and resolution 1888 (2009), which was just adopted on 30 September, should be implemented in a coherent and comprehensive manner. Viet Nam supports the Secretary-General's recommendations included in his report to the Council dated 16 September 2009 (S/2009/465) and shares many of the views expressed during this debate. From our own experience in dealing with the multifaceted consequences of war and in promoting national development and the rights of women and children, Viet Nam underlines the following points.

  7. The enormous international efforts, including those of the United Nations, to promote the implementation of resolutions 1325 (2000) and 1820 (2008) and of the relevant presidential statements of the Security Council have produced positive results. Of primary significance is the greater recognition that the maintenance of peace and security requires measures to meet the needs of women. It is also necessary to ensure their full and equal participation in reconciliation and negotiation processes, in all stages of peacekeeping, in the management of humanitarian aid and in post- conflict reconstruction. Activities carried out by the United Nations and by many countries have brought about noticeable changes in a number of specific areas. However, there are problems and challenges, especially in the post- conflict period.

  8. Viet Nam values the support of Council members for its proposal that this debate be convened on the need to protect the rights of women and girls and to promote the role of women in post-conflict situations. With this debate, United Nations Members, international organizations and other stakeholders will jointly take stock of and set out measures to enhance the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000). In preparing for this undertaking, Viet Nam and Switzerland jointly organized a seminar on women, peace, security and development, held in Hanoi in July 2009, with the participation of United Nations representatives and Vietnamese and international non-governmental organizations.

  9. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs of Viet Nam. This debate is of great significance in preparing for the review of 10 years of the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000), on women and peace and security, adopted by the Security Council in 2000. That resolution has the profoundly humane objective of protecting women and children, including girls, who are the most vulnerable and most heavily affected in conflicts and wars. It is also aimed at promoting more effective implementation of the Council's primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security.
