  1. “In June, Mongolia successfully organized the Female Foreign Ministers Meeting, at which the Foreign Ministers of France, Germany, Indonesia, Liechtenstein, Mongolia and South Africa held constructive discussions on global peace and security, climate change and food security issues and adopted the Ulaanbaatar declaration as an outcome document. To further advance that achievement, during the general debate of the General Assembly at its current session, the President of Mongolia, Mr. Ukhnaa Khurelsukh, proposed to convene the World Women’s Forum in Ulaanbaatar in August 2024. We call on Member States and United Nations agencies to cooperate in support of that initiative and to actively participate in that forum. We are confident that women can do groundbreaking work towards establishing justice and sustaining peace and security.”

  2. “Mongolia supports the women and peace and security agenda and women’s full, equal and meaningful participation in peace and security. Moreover, we see peacekeeping operations as part of the Secretary- General’s Action for Peacekeeping initiative and the New Agenda for Peace. Furthermore, Mongolia ranks among the top 30 United Nations troop-contributing countries with the highest number of women peacekeepers and is firmly committed to meeting the call by the Department of Peace Operations to increase the number of women serving in peacekeeping operations to 15 per cent by 2027.”

  3. “Mongolia believes that women must be empowered not only politically and legally but also economically, if they are to play a role in political settlements. Therefore, the Government of Mongolia attaches great importance to women’s participation in decision-making, political leadership and economic empowerment, and implements national policies and programmes in line with Sustainable Development Goal 5, on gender equality and women’s empowerment. Although women make up half of the total population, gender equality has not been achieved in decision-making positions. Therefore, in line with Mongolia’s recent constitutional reform to overhaul its electoral system, the law on elections has been amended to set a minimum quota of 30 per cent women candidates among all party candidates.”

  4. “I thank the Brazilian presidency for convening this open debate on the women and peace and security agenda, with a focus on the theme “Women’s participation in international peace and security: from theory to practice”. I also wish to thank the Secretary-General and other presenters for their valuable remarks and statements. It has been more than two decades since the adoption of resolution 1325 (2000), on women and peace and security. During that time, women’s participation has substantially increased in security and peacebuilding matters. However, we are living in a turbulent time of heightened geopolitical tensions and armed conflicts, which requires us to exert more efforts to engage every Member State and all members of society, including women, in peace and security actions.”

  5. “Most important, the consensus and solidarity of female Foreign Ministers will serve as a great impetus to promote multilateral cooperation to address global challenges. We believe that, in cooperation with and with the support of the Member States, the United Nations system and the Security Council can achieve more as we approach the twenty-fifth anniversary of resolution 1325 (2000) through the accelerated implementation of the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the New Agenda for Peace and other internationally agreed development goals.”

  6. “Likewise, women’s participation at the decision-making level is attaining ever-increasing importance, owing to the problems and challenges as a result of the current global crises, including the pandemic, geopolitical conflicts and humanitarian disasters. Therefore, the Foreign Minister for Mongolia, Mrs. Battsetseg Batmunkh, has proposed the initiative to hold a female Foreign Ministers’ meeting in Mongolia on 29 and 30 June in order to discuss issues concerning international relations and to seek possible solutions. We firmly believe that the meeting will provide an opportunity for participants to deliberate and exchange information on, and share their best practices of, feminist foreign policymaking.”

  7. “Since 2006, when Mongolia sent its first female officer to a United Nations peacekeeping operation, in terms of the number of female peacekeepers, it has ranked among the top 20 of the more than 120 troop-contributing countries. In addition, we are committed to fulfil the call by the Department of Peace Operations to increase the number of women serving in United Nations peacekeeping operations by 15 per cent by 2027. Within the framework of that objective, Mongolia successfully hosted an international conference on strengthening the role of women in peacekeeping in June 2022, with the participation of female peacekeepers from more than 30 countries. All of us recognize today the fact that women’s leadership has a positive impact on all spheres of life.”

  8. “Therefore, the issue of strengthening women’s representation and participation in peace and peacebuilding processes requires renewed commitment from both the international community and national Governments. Mongolia is firmly committed to the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda across all its pillars — prevention, protection, participation, relief and recovery — and at all stages of the peace process. For more than two decades, Mongolia has contributed to United Nations peacekeeping operations and the sacred cause of strengthening international peace and security, sending its male and female peacekeepers.”

  9. “Mongolia is grateful to Mozambique’s presidency for organizing this well- timed debate on landmark resolution 1325 (2000), which streamlined the women and peace and security agenda worldwide. We would also like to thank the Deputy Secretary-General and the briefers for their valuable remarks. In the past 23 years, both the Security Council and national Governments have made significant efforts towards the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda. Nevertheless, today women remain the segment of society most affected not only by armed conflicts, but also crises and disasters, including the coronavirus disease pandemic and the floods and earthquakes in different corners of the world.”
