  1. “They are also particularly adept at exploiting new technologies on the Internet - whether to spread their messages, recruit new members, or finance, plan and perpetrate attacks. More than ever before, the Committee needs a dynamic, agile and responsive body of experts to support and promote its work. CTED will continue to do its utmost to fulfil that role, and is honoured to serve this cause.”

  2. “It is therefore CTED's hope that the Council will provide it with the resources required to fulfil its significantly expanded mandate. The CTED Executive Director Designate, Ms. Michele Coninsx, intends to submit a report to the CTC, setting out CTED's vision of how the CTC, the Council and the entire United Nations can maximize the impact of CTED and benefit from its work. The debate today serves an important function and will guide us in drafting that report. Together, we have achieved a great deal since the adoption of resolution 1373 (2001). However, the terrorist threat continues to evolve at an alarming pace. Terrorist organizations continue to demonstrate flexibility and the capacity to quickly adapt their methods.”

  3. “The meeting held yesterday on aviation security (see S/PV.8057) is one example of such partnership. The establishment of the Global Internet Forum by four major companies and its partnership with the CTC is another. Lastly, these meetings play an important role in policy formulation. Resolution 2370 (2017), on small arms and light weapons, is a good example of the effectiveness of that practice and its role in supporting policy formulation both at the CTC and at the Council. CTED remains committed to our contribution by assessing Member States' implementation, facilitating technical assistance delivery, identifying trends and good practices and advising and promoting the policy decisions of the Committee and the resolutions of the Council. However, those tasks are also stretching our capacity and resources to the maximum.”

  4. “We need to explore ways together to ensure that the entire United Nations system benefits from CTED's analysis, as it is probably the most updated and comprehensive evidence-based analysis in the United Nations system on counter-terrorism capacity, challenges, trends and developments. Over the past 12 months, CTED has organized four open briefings and four special meetings. These meetings serve at least three important purposes. First, they bring transparency to the Committee's work. On numerous occasions, Member States, notably States not serving on the Council, have thanked us for these meetings and expressed a strong wish that they be continued. Secondly, they enable the CTC to forge new partnerships with international, regional and subregional organizations, civil society and even with private-sector actors.”

  5. “CTED continues to strengthen its capacity to identify trends and developments, also through its global research network. CTED is able to provide the CTC with research-based policy advice on a range of issues, from the prosecution, rehabilitation and reintegration of returnees and the protection of critical infrastructure to the effectiveness of counter-messaging. CTED also takes great care to ensure that identified trends and developments and the threat assessments provided by the Monitoring Team are thoroughly and consistently integrated into its assessments. I should note also that CTED's analysis of trends and developments is free of confidentiality requirements.”

  6. “As demonstrated in the multiple open briefings we held, including meetings on Iraq, CTED can and does share its work. Since its last review, CTED is also mandated to identify emerging issues, trends and developments related to resolution 1535 (2004). Our cooperation with the Monitoring Team and the joint drafting of the five reports of the Secretary-General required under resolution 2253 (2015), as well as periodic exchanges between the two expert bodies, have allowed us to make a valuable analysis of the threat and Member States' responses and to enrich our work on identifying trends and developments. It also allows us better to understand the challenges that Member States face. We are thankful to the Monitoring Team and to the Committee for their cooperation with us.”

  7. “It contains the most updated advice on practical ways to implement all the new resolutions. It is now available for download in English on the CTC website. The new resolutions also require CTED to prepare analytical reports in a wide variety of areas that require new and constantly developed expertise. New areas for CTED include foreign terrorist fighters, the use of digital evidence and battlefield evidence, new border-control measures, including advance passenger information and biometrics, the use of the Internet by terrorists, the role of women and the human rights aspects of all these issues. All United Nations bodies can benefit from CTED assessment and analysis. Let me stress that most CTED work products, including in particular its thematic and regional analysis, are not confidential.”

  8. “The Council has adopted six new resolutions on terrorism in a short period oftime, an unprecedented achievement and show of consensus. CTED has contributed to their elaboration. One notable example is CTED's development of the comprehensive framework on counter-narratives, which served as the foundation for resolution 2354 (2017). CTED, relying on its thematic expertise and guided by resolution 2129 (2013), will continue to advice the CTC on the implementation of these resolutions. CTED will also promote them. It will also continue to integrate them into its work streams and identify challenges as well as practical ways to overcome them. In this regard, I would note that CTED recently updated its technical guide, which serves to strengthen and deepen CTC assessments and helps Member States prepare for them.”

  9. “The establishment of the Office of Counter- Terrorism, with a strong mandate on prevention of violent extremism and capacity-building, provides an opportunity to strengthen the links even further and shorten the time period between our assessments and the delivery of assistance. We look forward to discussing ways to strengthen those links with Under- Secretary-General Voronkov and his Office. But let us make no mistake: as much as we invest in capacity-building, we should avoid any perception that technical assistance is a precondition for implementing binding Council resolutions. The Council may wish to consider ways to encourage States to implement CTC recommendations, especially in cases where technical assistance is not the reason for the lack ofimplementation or when States are visited more than once. These are not regular times.”

  10. “This progress reflects not only the impact of resolution 1373 (2001), but also the determined efforts of Member States to comply with their obligations. And yet many States still do not have all counter-terrorism measures in place. Many CTC recommendations still await action. As the Council is aware, the recommendations are usually divided into two categories: those that require technical assistance and those that do not. Over the years, many of our partners have delivered technical assistance on the basis of the Committee's recommendations and integrated them into their work programmes. However, the Committee's recommendations could be acted upon much more rapidly and much more widely.”

  11. “They also serve as a practical way to discuss current trends with national experts and to advise Member States on developing and implementing national counter-terrorism strategies. Since the beginning of the year, CTED has visited 16 States. The full list can be found in my written remarks, which will be shared after this meeting. Seven further visits are scheduled for the remainder of this year, more than in any other equivalent period since the Committee's creation. CTED has now conducted 133 Visits covering 96 States, including 45 visits since its previous review. Much has been accomplished through this process. New national and regional laws have been enacted, new institutions established and capacities strengthened.”

  12. “As the Council is aware, since its establishment CTED has been tasked with providing the Counter- Terrorism Committee (CTC) with neutral and independent expert assessments of Member States' implementation of that resolution and subsequent resolutions on counter-terrorism. One of the principal tools it uses is the country visit, a highly collaborative process that involves experts from many partner organizations. The visits are designed to help Member States develop an effective road map while also avoiding duplication of effort. Our assessments bring to the CTC and all our partners in New York and in the field the most updated assessment of Member States' counter-terrorism situation.”

  13. “Mr. Scharia: Allow me to begin by thanking the Ethiopian presidency and the Russian Federation for supporting the inclusion of this topic on the Council's agenda and for inviting the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED) to address the Council. On behalf of CTED, I wish to congratulate Under- Secretary-General Voronkov on his appointment as head of the Office of Counter-Terrorism. CTED looks forward to strengthening its partnership with him and his Office. Sixteen years have passed since the adoption of resolution 1373 (2001), and terrorism today still affects us all. No single country can claim to be invulnerable to it.”
