1. “Thirdly, given the crucial significance of post- conflict institution-building to the success of the overall peacebuilding efforts, my delegation shares the belief in the necessity of integrating the institution- building perspective, tailored to each country and situation, into the mandates of respective United Nations missions from their early stages. Fourthly, we believe in the transformative power of the relevant regional and subregional organizations in connection with peacebuilding. Nowhere are the benefits of this soft power more evident than in Europe, with the European Union as a case in point. There is a great deal of transformative potential with other European bodies, such as the Council of Europe and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).”

2. “Yet the fact that the majority of post-conflict countries relapse into violence within 10 years leaves no doubt about the need for extreme prudence in planning the transition of responsibilities from the international community to national authorities, especially in the security sector. Secondly, consensus between domestic and international stakeholders on a broad peacebuilding agenda is a sine qua non for the success of the institution-building and peacebuilding endeavour as a whole. If there is a lack of understanding on either side, there will be no chemistry between them and, ultimately, no tangible progress in securing lasting peace.”

My delegation also recognizes that the purpose of institution-building is to reduce the dependence of post-conflict Governments on the international community and to promote self-reliance.”

4. “I thank you, Mr. President, for holding this important debate and wish you every success in fulfilling the highly responsible duties of Security Council President. Our appreciation also goes to Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and the Deputy Prime Minister of Timor- Leste, His Excellency Mr. Jose Luis Guterres, for their insights into today's topic. Ukraine's long record of participation in United Nations peacekeeping and peacebuilding efforts in Timor-Leste and almost 20 other States, including most of the Group of Seven Plus countries, makes this debate quite relevant for my country. Ukraine aligns itself with the statement of the European Union. As a member of the Organizational Committee of the Peacebuilding Commission, my delegation supports the statement delivered by the Commission's Chair, Mr.”
