  1. “Within this scope, multiple initiatives and programmes have been put in place to ensure prevention, participation, protection and education for women and girls. The humanitarian aid programme for eliminating and responding to gender-based violence that we carried out in collaboration with the United Nations Population Fund is an example of such initiatives. We strongly believe that women and children have a tremendously important role to play in rebuilding Syria.”

  2. “Moreover, Turkey has been a safe refuge for over 2 million Syrians, including women and girls, who had to flee Syria for their lives and has also ensured that cross-border humanitarian assistance reaches millions of people in dire need on the Syrian side of the border, in conformity with its international obligations and in support of the United Nations. We have offered Syrians fleeing a brutal conflict and a regime that targets its own people temporary protection status and enabled them access to Turkish hospitals. So far, more than 66,000 babies have been born in the medical facilities inside the temporary protection centres in Turkey, and more than 200,000 children are enrolled in school. Turkey makes every effort to provide security and safety to women and girls who have fled from the conflict.”

  3. “Finally, deepening the gender perspective in the United Nations system's normative and operational frameworks, entities and practices will enhance the effectiveness of United Nations action in responding to the needs of women and girls, particularly in humanitarian emergencies and protracted crises. Turkey supports the empowerment and well-being of women and girls in various emergency, conflict and post-conflict situations through its comprehensive development assistance programmes. The projects we carry out in Afghanistan and Somalia, especially in the fields of education and health services, are concrete examples of our efforts to this end.”

  4. “Thirdly, ensuring a comprehensive approach to decision-making and policymaking, peace processes, mediation efforts, peacekeeping and peacebuilding, is another important step. The meaningful participation of women in these processes should be promoted. Therefore, as a case in point, we welcome the establishment of a technical committee on gender equality in the context of the ongoing negotiations in Cyprus. We hope and believe that this committee will contribute to the efforts of the two sides, the Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots, to find a just and comprehensive settlement to the Cyprus problem without further delay.”

  5. “Furthermore, our world is now facing the largest humanitarian crisis since the Second World War, with a growing influx of displaced populations resulting from protracted conflicts and lack of security and stability, which causes even further difficulties to vulnerable groups, including women and girls. In the face of these threats, a stronger and more inclusive approach is required. First, strengthening our political will to achieve gender equality, empowerment of women and girls and recognition of their human rights is a necessary step. Secondly, the horrific acts perpetrated against women and girls by terrorist organizations such as Daesh and Boko Haram require a comprehensive counter-terrorism strategy. Accordingly, eliminating the root causes of conflict is essential.”

  6. “Nevertheless, we would also like to stress that some inaccurate references in the global study do not serve the intended purpose of their inclusion, and thus we express reservations on those references, which in fact do not relate to the overall role or influence of women. Eliminating conflicts and related violence continues to be a great challenge on which the international community is still trying to deliver 70 years after the United Nations was founded. The severe effects of conflict on women and girls in various regions of the world continue to be a significant problem that needs to be addressed.”

  7. “The high-level review conducted on the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000), along with the review processes carried out vis-a-vis United Nations peacekeeping operations and peacebuilding architecture, has yielded a sound foundation for us to reflect on the international framework for prevention, peacekeeping and peacebuilding, with a strong emphasis on the empowerment of women. We welcome the continuing attention paid to the women and peace and security agenda at the Security Council and thank the Secretary-General for his recent report (S/2015/716), inter alia, submitting the results of the global study on the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000).”

  8. “I would like to express our appreciation to the Spanish presidency for organizing this timely debate. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Prime Minister Rajoy Brey for his words yesterday of solidarity on and condemnation of the heinous terrorist attack perpetuated in Turkey on 10 October. The year 2015 is a landmark year for gender equality and the women and peace and security agenda. This year we not only celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform of Action, but we also mark the fifteenth anniversary of resolution 1325 (2000). Furthermore, the recently adopted Sustainable Development Agenda (General Assembly resolution 70/1) has a Goal dedicated to gender equality.”
