Against the backdrop of recent deadly terrorist attacks around the world, and ahead of a key General Assembly special session on the issue in June, the Security Council heard calls today for action to combat the threat posed by terrorism to global peace and security.
Several dozen speakers in the ensuing open debate discussed ways to cut off sources of terrorist financing, halt the cross-border flow of foreign terrorist fighters and prevent terrorists from using the Internet and social media to stir up support and enlist fresh recruits. They also discussed ways to enhance the role of the United Nations in coordinating global counter-terrorism efforts, with the Security Council playing a leading role.
The representative of the United States, citing recent terrorist attacks in Lahore, Brussels, Istanbul and Mogadishu, stressed that terrorism was not limited to any one country, region or faith. At the same time, she cautioned against using terrorism as a reason to clamp down on freedom of expression and opinion on the Internet.
ISMAEL ABRAO GASPAR MARTINS (Angola) said terrorism was spreading widely and dangerously in Africa, threatening peace, stability and security throughout the continent. Resolving the conflicts in Syria, Iraq, Libya and Mali would have a direct impact on the forces driving ISIL terrorism. Initiatives undertaken by the Government of Angola included the establishment of the National Anti-Terrorism Observatory which brought together experts from various departments. Legislation was in place to impose heavy prison terms on anyone collaborating with terrorist groups, and to combat the financing of terrorism, he said.
SAMANTHA POWER (United States), citing the recent terrorist attacks in Lahore, Brussels, Istanbul and Mogadishu, said the threat of terrorism was not limited to one country or region, or to members of one faith, nor limited to any one battlefield. It was important to redouble efforts to counter recruitment, radicalization and propaganda. Emphasizing the need to strengthen information sharing and international cooperation, she said that a shared commitment to addressing the threat of chemical weapons in terrorist hands should not diminish determination to identify State actors involved in the use of such weapons. On efforts to combat use of the Internet by terrorists, she said they could not be conflated with censoring or shutting down parts of the web, cautioning that imposing wide-ranging limits would mean abandoning the commitment to freedom of expression and opinion. It was ISIL and Al-Qaida who were most afraid of the truth, she noted, adding that while terrorists posed a clear threat, overreacting to the danger they posed could put core freedoms at risk.
FOD SECK (Senegal) said the international community must urgently provide support to West Africa and the Sahel region for the implementation of national action plans and subregional counter-terrorism initiatives. Support was also needed for the African Union strategy and G5 Sahel decisions to combat terrorism. All counter-terrorism initiatives should address ignorance, marginalization, discrimination, bad governance, lack of socioeconomic prospects and misinterpretation of religion, he emphasized, noting that the military approach was not enough. There must be support for initiatives that prioritized dialogue, tolerance and understanding, he said, adding that intolerance could never be associated with a religion, nationality or ethnic group. Recalling that Senegal had adopted a law to combat terrorism financing, in 2009, he stressed the importance of making the international financial system more secure, and called upon Member States to partnerships with the private sector and civil society. Steps to counter terrorism financing should not prejudice migrants and refugees. Recalling the importance of a recent West Africa regional border-control workshop, he said it was important to draw upon the June review of the United Nations global counter-terrorism strategy so as to ensure it remained relevant.
ELBIO ROSSELLI (Uruguay), firmly condemning all forms of terrorism, urged support for national strategies, the sharing of best practices, and partnerships with civil society in countering the menace. Uruguay was committed to strengthening the global counter-terrorism strategy, he said, emphasizing that prevention was essential. States must work to prevent the training of terrorist groups and complicity with them. Legal frameworks, as well as stable operational and institutional structures, were needed to fight terrorism, and Uruguay was carrying out efforts to address weaknesses in its institutional capabilities, he said, recalling that the International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Nuclear Terrorism had entered into force in the country on 3 April.
JUAN JOS GMEZ CAMACHO (Mexico) underlined the need to act in strict compliance with international law, and for terrorism not to be associated with any religion, nationality or ethnic group. Civil society and humanitarian organizations were adept in formulating anti-terrorism measures, he said, emphasizing the importance of greater coherence and coordination among different United Nations bodies involved in combating terrorism. There was also a need for a preventative approach involving State capacity-building, and for strengthening development. In preventing violent extremism, it was crucial to consider the implications since there was a risk of punishing actions that did not constitute terrorism, he warned.
CARLOS ARTURO MORALES LPEZ (Colombia) noted that citizens were seen every day fighting in conflicts that were alien to them and far from their places of origin. Joint efforts were needed to fight terrorism, violent extremism and hate speech, he said, while emphasizing the need to respect international standards and the rule of law, as the only way to stop the threat from growing stronger. Strong ties between terrorism and transnational organized crime had enabled terrorism to grow in size and scope, he said, pointing out that terrorism evolved daily. Only through concerted efforts could it be addressed, but the fight would not be successful without a general convention on terrorism. Decisions must be taken, difficult as that might be, he stated.
LOURDES ORTIZ YPARRAGUIRRE (Philippines) said that preventing and countering terrorism entailed engaging non-traditional Government agencies, as well as academia and the private sector, in implementing awareness campaigns. For its part, the Philippines had passed laws to combat terrorism financing, collaborated with partners on joint efforts and shared information with regional groups to address issues of grave concern, such as foreign fighters. Prevention efforts included attempts to detect and halt threats from violent extremists, and deradicalization programmes were being bolstered through partnerships with local religious leaders and schools, she said. Going forward, it was to be hoped that the June review of the Global Strategy would infuse new and effective ideas into the collective approach so as to ensure long-term success. 152ee80cbc
