“Having the honour of presiding over the Security Council today, I am pleased that we were able to adopt today's significant presidential statement. As Chair of the 1540 Committee, the Republic of Korea will continue to lead efforts to realize the full and universal implementation of the resolution over the course of our remaining term.

“If North Korea succeeds in acquiring nuclear weapons, it will seriously undermine the regime established by the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and exacerbate tension and instability in North-East Asia. Further nuclear tests by North Korea must be prevented through concerted efforts of the international community. Ifwe fail to effectively act upon such a clear and present threat to international peace and security, it will critically weaken the credibility of the Security Council, as well as the integrity of the Charter of the United Nations, which demands that all Members be peace-loving States. We must clearly warn North Korea that, if it challenges the international community with another nuclear test, it will be met with the most serious consequences.”

“The Hague Nuclear Security Summit, held last March, reinforced that important point, as more than 30 States announced the joint statement on promoting the full and universal implementation of resolution 1540 (2004). Such coordination efforts should be expanded to other areas of WMD control. Today, North Korea's nuclear-weapons programmes have exposed the weakest link in nuclear non-proliferation, along with nuclear security and safety. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is the only country in the world to have conducted nuclear tests in the twenty-first century. Notwithstanding the efforts of the international community, North Korea has continued to develop its nuclear weapons over the past two decades, and is now threatening to carry out its fourth nuclear test.”

“For its part, the Republic of Korea has launched the International Nuclear Non-proliferation and Security Academy, which will contribute actively to the capacity-building efforts in the region. We will also contribute $1 million to support the activities of the 1540 Committee. Thirdly, we should promote synergy among resolution 1540 (2004) and other non-proliferation related norms and initiatives. Resolution 1540 (2004) imposes an extensive set of obligations that cut across a broad range of WMD-proliferation aspects, encompassing nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and their means of delivery, as well as their related materials and technologies. In today's security environment, where non-State actors can easily have access to WMD-related materials and technology, non-proliferation and WMD security are indivisibly linked.”

“Secondly, we cannot overstate the importance of capacity-building and assistance for the implementation of resolution 1540 (2004). As the saying goes, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. However robust the security networks may be in many countries, it takes vulnerability and failing in just one country to spell insecurity for all. We should continue to strengthen the matchmaking role of the 1540 Committee to facilitate the provision of effective and tailored assistance to States. In addition to the efforts by the Security Council, we need to expand cooperation among all stakeholders, including the relevant international and regional organizations.”

“Building on the progress of the past decade, the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1540 (2004) will report a comprehensive road map and strategy to the Security Council by 2016. In this regard, I would like to stress, in particular, three essential tasks that should underpin our future efforts. First, the 1540 Committee's crucial role in monitoring the implementation of the resolution should be further enhanced. To date, 172 out of 193 Member States have presented their implementation reports. Considering the voluntary nature of the reporting, that is a remarkable achievement. In marking the tenth anniversary of the resolution, efforts should be redoubled to achieve the goal of universal reporting by Member States.”

“The number of States that have implemented legislative measures to prohibit the proliferation activities of non-state actors has more than doubled during this period. At the same time, law enforcement and export control capabilities of these States have improved steadfastly in recent years. Despite past achievements, daunting challenges still lie ahead in an increasingly complex operational environment, given the rapid advances in science and technology. This is why, on the tenth anniversary of this landmark resolution, we should step up efforts to achieve its full and universal implementation. The presidential statement that we have just adopted sets an important goal of achieving the full implementation of resolution 1540 (2004) by 2021, and maps out key areas that we should work on to achieve this goal.”

“Ten years ago, the adoption of resolution 1540 (2004) by the Security Council marked a key milestone in our efforts to address the challenge arising from the nexus between the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) and terrorism. As a binding international norm under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, resolution 1540 (2004) complements the existing non-proliferation regime, which had formerly been focused on States. The resolution reflects a fundamental shift in our paradigm regarding the international community's response to the threat of WMD proliferation. Over the past 10 years, resolution 1540 (2004) has mobilized significant efforts across the globe to combat new WMD proliferation threats.”
