are multiplying. nearly 2 million people are believed to be internally displaced. these people are vulnerable. their protection needs are urgent. isil has explicitly targeted minorities and women and children. there must be consequences for australia will help to provide further $2 million to help the united nations population fund to scale up delivery of reproductive health care. there will also be $5 million in emergency funding to iraq, and we have undertaken air drops to besieged communities. we have provided humanitarian aid for those in dire need in syria and assisted lebanon and refugees across

their borders. the humanitarian crisis must end . the international community cannot stand by and do nothing in the face of isil's threat to humanity. this is why australia is joining international partners and to assist the iraqi government in the fight against isil. thank you, mr. president. >> thank you very much, mr. bishop, and we appreciate the extent of australia's commitment from so far away. it is very meaningful, and we thank you for your leadership. i now give the floor to his the minister for foreign and expatriate affairs of jordan. thank you, sir. ofellencies, heads delegations, and members of the

security council, ladies and delegations, if i may would like to i express our appreciation and gratitude to the government of the united states of america represented here by the secretary of state mr. john kerry. we would like to thank the united states for their initiative of convening an presiding over this very important security council meeting on preserving international peace and security. this meeting is based on the conferences and meetings held recently, specifically, the meeting organized by saudi arabia and which was presented over by an emir, and the meeting in paris recently presided over by the president of the french

republic and which also included mobilize order to resources as necessary to grapple with the terrorists and combat in a friendly and to support the sister nation of iraq in its confrontations with terrorists that have taken care troll of vast regions of syria and iraq. this organization has gone beyond political and geographic borders, and how it is a threat to political stability not just in the region, but it is a threat to international peace and security as well. today the world is facing an eminent -- imminent danger. this is an unprecedented danger, with its average he and capacity to bleed society to take advantage of political and security vacuums and to leverage problems of national unity within states for their own purposes, for political reasons,

or due to disenfranchisement or polarization of religion or otherwise. in order to use their own military, economic, situations, and the situation might further unravel if the immunity does not immediately react in a determining matter and in and active matter. the security council resolution 2170 laid the groundwork in order to be able to globally to tackle all the aspects of this danger, especially and financingants sources for international organizations. in that context, we support the idea of a security council meeting that will be presided over by president barack obama on foreign combatants, and we endorse the initiative of bahrain to organize a conference

of financing issue sources for terrorism. we also welcome the statement, the presidential statement that was adopted by the security council, and i would like to thank the special representative of the secretary-general for his briefing and for his effort in this regard. and kingdent, jordan warned him for some time have been warning of thehe possible spread syrian crisis and possibly to iraq, specifically. been creatednt has which is propitious for this terrorist organization, which moved from the syrian territory and backaqi territory and forth. this allowed for building of networks of partnerships and

alliances advantage of vacuums and political consequences that i referenced earlier, and this led to their ability to control art sections of territory in both syria and iraq. so combating this organization means there has to be an inclusive political process to restore national unity amongst the different stakeholders of iraqi society in keeping with an inclusive iraqi identity. in that context, the formation of a new iraqi government under the presidency of the new president is an important step, and we hope that it will go further. we support the efforts of the new government in iraq to fight terrorism, and i would like to doctor for his statement and for his explanation of the situation. side intands by iraq's this effort to promote stability and security and preserve its territorial integrity.

we encourage all our iquique political forces to participate forces toq he legal participate in the decision-making process and preserve the unity of the iraqi people and promote national understanding. in jordan and his majesty the king are working to contain terrorism and we are working specifically on strangling the source of the financing. we are devoting our know-how and entries to grapple with the issues of extremism, and we are also doing this to our efforts in the security council to face terrorism and extremism and to variousdialogue amongst ethnic groups, and religions, and to try to promote better understanding of the noble religion of islam. i would like to recall the letter of -- which for a decade now and after many conferences

in this context we have been working in this direction. we are all concerned having to fight extremism and the fight in its different manifestations and different organizations. we actively participate in regional and international efforts to combat terrorism and deal with terrorism. this is based on a very clear and sincere position against terrorism, which targets us and which in the past has committed crimes on our lands and against our people. thus, restoring peace and security and stability in the sister nation of iraq directly concerns are only concerned -- our own security. this body has committee hein ous crimes against the social fabric of the region, and this is an important part of our society. this is a category which is dear to our hearts, which has contributed our heritage and the

believe our civilization. islam is innocent of the heinous crimes omitted in its name is. our duty today as a region and as an international community is to take immediate measures to put an end to this cancer and put an end to its way of thinking, which is poisonous, and uprooted from our societies before it is too late. anthank you very much, and enormous thank you do his bdullah, forg at doubl his efforts. i give the floor now to his excellency, the minister of foreign and european affairs of luxembourg. john, i amt, dear grateful to you for taking initiative to convene this ministerial debate which is

taking place at a time when the international community supports the iraqi authorities and the iraqi people is more crucial than ever. thent to thank my friend, special representative of the secretary-general, for his presentation and for his action u.n.he helm of the yo mission in iraq, and i think that mr. for foreign affairs from iraq. i had the pleasure of meeting at the international conference of reconstruction of iraq in brussels. him compelling and encouraging statements and a short him of our support. what is happening in recent weeks is really revolting. have seen unbearable images of the victims in agony come of dead children lined up,

thousands of people finding themselves trapped without water or food in the desert near mr. sinjar. what can we say about the barbarous beheadings of the two american journalists? and the british humanitarian worker? all of those were witness to the massacres and atrocities committed against the civilian populations by the terrorists of isil during the fighting in di, that and rama conquest of zumar, or the seizure of -- city,s largest christian forcing hundreds of thousands of iraqis to flee their homes. reached ane has inconceivable level of magnitude

. children as young as 15, 14, or even 13 are compelled by isil to bear weapons, tourist civilians, or commit suicide attacks. jihadists commit war crimes and crimes against timidity with forced his appearances, -- disappearances, sexual violence, attacks against hospitals. campaigns religious are targeting minorities in northern iraq. in the face of these crimes, and in the face of extremism of this terrorist group which is neither islamic, which seeks to destabilize the entire region, the international community must act. it must take the necessary measures to help the iraqi authorities to help -- to fight

andscourge of isil end the suffering it is inflicting in iraq. we know what these measures are because we have debated them right here in the united nations. on the 15th of august, we adopted resolution 2170 to impose sections on isil and cut off its sources of financing. asked we, part of the global antiterrorist strategy, we will adopt a new resolution to counter this threat posed by foreign terrorist fighters. it goes without saying that we with a level of security to counter and delete the terrorist threat. we support the commitment of the coalition launched by the united states at the request of the iraqi authorities and with the active support of the countries of the region. and also step up our efforts terms of humanitarian assistance and for protections of civilians.

we must strengthen the actions of the united nations to alleviate the suffering of the iraqi people. for its part, luxembourg is providing support for the world food program's into the hgr's operations to help displaced persons. i'm convinced that an improvement to the security situation will depend on progress in the political sphere. of the conflict will not be eradicated by force. in this context we welcome the inauguration of the new iraqi government of national unity under the authority of prime minister abadi. it is not a matter of urgency to start in national dialogue and national reconciliation which is an essential condition for the return to peace and for assuring order. over the development of the country which benefits all its ethnic and religious communities can eliminate the root causes of injustice, violence, and terrorism.

our culture and civilization is being violated. islam is being alienated from the forces of peace. it is essential that religious leaders continue to engage and to promote the values and humanism of islam. i also want to underscore the important mention made by you about the presence of the foreign affairs of iran. play an and should positive role in combating extremism, whether in iraq or in syria. mr. president, to conclude, i would like to pay tribute to the work that is done by the u.n. agencies and personnel on the ground. i also commend the crucial activity of -- in terms of mediation and promotion of the respect for human rights, especially for persons in

detention and for the protection of children's rights. i can assure you that luxembourg bilaterally and through the european union to continue to support debt consolidation of the rule of law in iraq, which will contribute to the full application of human rights. thank you. muchank you, john, very for your statement, as well as your help and support. enormously appreciate it. i now can't afford to his excellency, the minister for foreign affairs of france. mr. president, dear john, as special representative of the united nations, mr. secretary general, mr. foreign affairs of our eye, ladies and friends, the terrorist group took control of part of iraq and syria.

called theke to be islamic state. actually, they are just throat cutters. it has no legitimacy of a state, nor does it represent islam. mosque inf the great cairo did not mince his words on this topic, and he was right. he said recently, and i am quoting him, they are criminals who are sullying the image of islam and muslims. crucify, theyy cut throats, they behead people, and they use a mixture of the cruelty and some of

the most modern technology as a perverse instrument of propaganda. and name to massacre, massacre not just the men, and manyst others, but they also massacre all those men and women who did not submit to them. their actions, their object obviously flouts the rule of law and scorns civil society. it is an obvious negation of international order and a denial of the founding principles underpinning our organization, especially. today they have focused on after flourishing in serious with the support of

the regime -- in syria with the support of the regime, and that might've been in the past, but e aiming well beyond those countries. they would like to have all of us or almost all of us at the end of their knives and their cannons and their attacks. given such a threat in action is simply not an option. france in keeping with its principles and traditions decided to shoulder its responsibilities. we did so recently facing and in a in mali completely different context in central africa. we shouldered our responsibilities in syria when, as some of the first, we chose to support the moderate opposition, both against assad and against the terrorists. in iraq, we decided to once

again shoulder our responsibility by providing humanitarian aid, by providing military assistance, and today, even, this morning, by responding to the call of the iraqi government to provide air to respectorder international law. this morning, indeed, upon instructions handed down by the president of the republic of french planes intervened against a warehouse occupied by the terrorists in the northeast of iraq. it was completely destroyed. coming days and without engaging troops on the ground, we will continue coordinating our efforts with all those who ence especially to act alongside the iraqi forces.

acting against iraq was something that divided this council. in 2014, and a very different context, acting for iraq and against the terrorists is a duty for all of us. dear colleagues, this fight which has already created under atrocious circumstances recently victims,fir -- many and our hearts go out to them, this will be won by the iraqi themselves. military support is not enough. arak needs political solidarity and political unity. the terrorists have exploited the risks amongst iraqis and the serious frustrations of parts of the population. the election of the new president and the creation of a

new government by the prime minister abadi clears the path henceforth to rallying, and we must continue along that path. process support the key for bringing about unity. it is the condition of success. it is important for reconstructing the iraqi state which is stable, peaceful, and inclusive.all -- international solidarity means we need to rally around this is cause, a maximum number of countries, of all faiths, orientations, and sizes, turning through security now. the priorities are known here. military support needs before right into iraq. it is important to block channels for foreign combatants and starvation of financial resources of the terrorists,

which comes primarily from oil. starvation of these resources which should be completely unambiguous in terms of anyone's behavior. with force win alone. we need also political support for the iraqi authorities, and i have said before, it is a priority to reconstruct the state and restore evidence communities.raqi now humanitarian assistance, with almost $1.8 million -- 1.8 million displaced persons, keynitarian assistance is and must be increased. it is truly a bridge of international solidarity towards iraq that must be built. and yet the evidence also points to the basis of the group in syria which need to be weakened and they need to be weakened specifically through powerful support to the moderate syrian

opposition. we must act swiftly on all of these fronts because we know that cost of inaction dramatically increases the longer it takes to make a decision and move to action. dear colleagues, last month at a conference in paris on peace and security in iraq was an important step, as was the meeting in jeddah a few days before that. the meeting today in the united nations and here i would like to point out the secretary of state kerry took the initiative and very timely manner, is another important step. the message of france's clear here. and against terrorism. we must assume a response abilities. the throat cutters of the group must be fought and beaten. region cane entire only then find peace and security. >> thank you for an eloquent and

forceful statement, and thank you also from everybody for the leadership of france last week. we appreciate it in orissa, and thank you for literally your her lick effort to be here today. we are very grateful. thank you. i now give the floor to his excellency, the minister of foreign affairs of chad. >> thank you, mr. president. allow me to welcome my colleagues and ministers. i would like to thank the ambassadors representing our states and the isretary-general and cooperating with him on at length work that has been done on a daily basis to maintain peace and security. peace and security remain

dangerously threatened, particularly why terrorism. -- by terrorism. this kind of international terrorism composed of al qaeda toshabaab, boko haram, mention these alone. therefore, i would like to thank secretary of state john kerry for holding this public debate which is coming at the right time, given the grave situation for iraq. i also take the opportunity to welcome the u.s. residency of that counsel during this month of september and to assure you of our support. theuld like to thank special representative of the secretary-general, and eric colleague for the breach ash and our colleague for the preceding -- for the briefing.

the president -- the situation in a wreck has been critical and has been for several months now. political upheavals in the region, disintegration of the hase and foreign -- exacerbated internal conflict. for this reason, al qaeda and other affiliated terrorist groups, particularly -- have found fertile ground to spread their form of transnational jihad is him, threatening peace and stability in iraq and beyond. chad remains are found the concert by the prevailing followingday in arak the wide-ranging attention to -- -- it is spreading terror and atrocities in iraq answer it. for thereal threat, but

international community as a whole. chad which isn, areof our priorities, we thatcipating in mali where country has paid a heavy price for combating terrorism, and soldiers havead fallen and dozens have been injured. unflaggingiding our support to the united states, the states of the region, including france and other partners, were doing all they from beingent isil able to cause harm. we believe countering these terrorist groups cannot be waged only to widescale military action. above all, there is a need to focus on the root causes of the iraqi causes. isil has benefited from fertile ground from fertile ground, it has promoted its expansion come

and it has exploited the frustration and injustice and despair. iraqi a large swath of society, those who have been discriminated and excluded from the country. controlling these areas is only possible if sunni issues are taken into account. it will be necessary to integrate regional capacities into these strategies of an international coalition. the international community needs to support the government of the new prime minister to enable him to establish an inclusive policy, breaking with the past, bring together all iraqis around the social project rating ethnicity and securing-based conflicts. all religious and civilians in iraq need to show proof of

cohesion, in order to open and turn a new page in their history. we believe that the involvement of militias within the armed forces of the government might tensions and polarized the political situation. once again we would emphasize the need to address the root causes of the violence in iraq and accelerate a political process by inclusive national dialogue in order to establish americredit governments, -- democratic governance and the rule of law. the iraqi people deserve to live in a stable and prosperous country where all are included in religious minorities can be involved in the political process and have an opportunity to develop feelings of belonging. as, i would like to condemn strongly as possible the perpetrated attacks against religious and ethnic minorities theur as well as

decapitation of journalists and other humanitarian workers. the perpetrators of these acts the to be found that brought to justice. in conclusion, mr. president, i believe that we have the best possible opportunities for combating international terrorism and we need to act, act in a way that is coordinated everywhere and at all times. i thank you. >> thank you very much. your excellency. we appreciate the holistic endorse,that you obviously, and we all acknowledge that we know that chad understands this challenge very well, so we appreciate it. i now afford to his excellency, the secretary of foreign affairs of argentina. >> thank you, mr. president. i would like to begin by thanking the minister of foreign

affairs of iraq for his statement and for his presence here and the statement of the special representative. i would like to express my recognition to the presidency for organizing this debate which clearly is important and timely. we are concerned by the very grave security and humanitarian situation in iraq which in recent months has drastically iterated due to the progress of the terrorist organization of the islamic state of iraq and levant. the transnational nature of this organization is not just a threat for a wreck, but also a threat -- for iraq but also a threat for the international community as a whole. is an opportunity to express our solidarity with the government and people of iraq, those people who have been victims of the attack and their families, and with the many people who have been thrown out of their homes and were forced to flee and seek refuge given the territorial advance and

persecution of the terrorists. he must take advantage of this meeting to reflect on the problems in iraq and to fundamentally debate what should of an scope and the limit effective contribution by the international community so that the iraqis themselves can successfully emerge from the difficult circumstances in which they find themselves. we are convinced that an examination which seeks to understand the roots of the current crisis will help us to come up with a collective andonse which is consistent ineffective in its implementation. from that point of view, and without double standards and based on the principles which govern the foreign policy of my country, i would like to make the following comments. first, isil is a terrorist and criminal organization. it uses military force, extreme violence, and intimidation to impose terror, attacking and persecuting individuals and

religious and ethnic minorities. it is also true that it is exploiting sectarian tensions and frustrations that already existed in large swaths of the who never ended up being included in the political system after the fall of the baptist regime more than a decade ago. for that reason, we welcome the recent establishment of an inclusive government in the timeline set forth in the constitution. this will make it possible to have a new opportunity to create the conditions that will lead to successfully meeting the current challenges in iraq. we congratulate the prime minister and we offer him all of our support in meeting the very difficult but unavoidable mission of meeting the demands and needs of the iraqis, which has been put off, and rebuilding trust are among all iraqi communities. secondly, isil is a threat for

international security, the security of the region, and any response must be firm on the security council's part. any coalition which is formed in order to combat isil should be guided by the respect of international law and defend high standards in the area of protection of civilians. isil, which started in the years which followed the invasion the country suffered in 2003, cannot be a prefix for unilateral action, it has shown creates more problems than it solves. the council70 of last month provides criteria and parameters which are clear for the international community's action in its combating terrorism. it reaffirms the duty of all states to adopt measures to interact sources of financing, to impede movement of combatants, and detained the supply of weapons which these

terrorist grizzlies and use. this form expression of the spirit council's determination should be applied swiftly without exception. thirdly, and due to that deep interconnection, the crisis which has endangered the territorial integrity of iraq is a new and powerful call for attention to the need to find a way out of the tragedy that is destroying syria. and in iraq, with the creation of a new, inclusive government, has been a vital part of the strategy to stem the advances of extremism. also in syria, a political solution to the conflict should be at the center of the international community's priorities. in syria, we must seek together to find a peaceful solution and renew our efforts, most particularly to support the new special envoy. we must find and show determination to find a way out of this is way should work with all parties in order to bring them back to the negotiating

table. fourthly, we recognize the role of the united nations in coordinating a vigorous response by the international community to helping the iraqi government to meet humanitarian needs of millions of iraqis who have been displaced and affected by the violence, especially for the most vulnerable sectors. we are convinced that lasting peace and security and stability in iraq are indivisible from sustainable, economic and social development. united nations must continue playing a central role to drive forward and channel international community cooperation in order to grapple with the deep-seated causes of sectarian division, exclusion, poverty. finer late, -- finally, exposing the nature of the crimes theitted by isil and by armed groups associated with it that abused the human rights of innocent citizens cannot remain

unpunished. to that end, this council must take all necessary measures to make all efforts possible in the context of international law to protect as thick and religious communities are most particularly vulnerable, including the christian minorities. it is vital to ensure that the offers of these authors of these crimes be held accountable for the international and national criminal justice system. because without the system. because without justice, there will be no lasting peace. nation,q is a great immensely rich in history and human resources, as well as natural resources. ,earning from past experience the international community must offer all possible assistance so that the iraqis themselves can decide their own path, can overcome this cult stage, and can develop their full potential. argentina is prepared to continue supporting the government of iraq while it

builds a better future for all it's inhabitants. thank you. >> thank you very a strong measure of support and for a forceful statement. we appreciate it. it is my pleasure to give the floor to the his excellency, parliamentary undersecretary of state for the foreign and commonwealth of the united kingdom. >> taken, mr. president. i only welcome your initiative in committing cash convening this session on our, and i thank the special rivers and the and the foreign minister for their informative revisions. and i congratulate prime minister oabadi on the formation of the new government of iraq and hope his government will unite integer arak in the fight against terrorism. the pursuit of peace and prosperity. this is a critical first step to addressing the series security,

political, and military challenges acing iraq. -- facing her. united kingdom also welcomes the new government's program, especially its commitments on iraq'salization with armed forces, and better delivery for the iraqi people in services and infrastructure. the international community must help the government to deliver on these promises, the government of iraq must also demonstrate its own unwavering commitment to delivering these reforms. it is now vital that all political blocs work together to overcome these challenges, including the threat posed by isil. correct'sntial that -- that iraq's neighbors put their differences aside and work together to deal with the threat. mr. president, the creation of an extremist caliphate revisits a direct threat to the security

and stability of the region and to the national security of other you and member states come -- u.n. member states, including the united kingdom. in seeking to establish its extremist state, isil is aiming to use its territory to launch attacks against the west, including the united kingdom, and it is contributing to insecurity in the region. we condemn isil's are derek asked, including targeted killings, forced inversions, abductions, trafficking, sexual violence, and sexual slavery. this callous and brutal murder a few days ago of a british aid , falling upon the equally appalling murders of two journalists, underlines isil's ruthlessness to retain power. his counsel has been united in his condemnation of isil and all

it stands for. .k. isr president, the u ready to make the steps to deal with the threat and keep our country safe. we will be working closely with our allies in the iraq he government on building the international sport during next week's meetings. the adoption of this council's resolution 2170 cents a clear political message to isil and other al qaeda inspired terrorists and has taken practical steps to combat the threat he posed. -- they pose. support the approach undertaken by obama last week, working with others to defeat the threat from isil. we must work together to drive back, dismantle, and ultimately destroy isil and what it stands for. we must use all the tools at our

disposal, humanitarian, diplomatic, political, and military, to squeeze isil. fewest tactful their presence in both iraq and syria, and we will continue to support the moderate forces fighting against isil. at the request of the iraqi government we have provided heavy machine guns and ammunition and transported other vital equipment to help the p eshmerga to push back isil's advances. we continued to give higher key to alleviating the humanitarian suffering of those iraqis targeted by terrorists. the u.k. has already donated $37 million in assistance to provide clean water, sanitation, essential medicine, and funding during thend conflict we have provided one dollar alien in humanitarian aid which is reaching all the syrian

committees, including the most at risk from isil. there needs to be a comprehensive core native approach with our allies at the forefront to tackle isil. as part of this, the u.k. will continue to be a steadfast supporter of iraq and an active jupiter to the international and regional efforts to degrade and defeat isil and rid the world of this repugnant terrorist organization. mr. president, as others have today, the solution lies in an inclusive, sovereign, and the credit governments. only a united iraq with the government has support of all of communities can rid isil of its violent ideology from recchi territory. -- from iraq he territory. >> thank you, and we thank you enormously for the significant initiatives and contributions

of the u.k. i meant to congratulate you that the u.k. is still the u.k. [laughter] and we are delighted that scotland decided to hang in there with you. democratic the process is never complete, but is always ever evolving. >> it evolved in the right way. i now have the pleasure of having the floor to his device minister for foreign affairs of chile. >> mr. secretary of state, and president of this council, we too would like to expose our initiativeor the a convening this meeting ca

given the relevance of the topic we are dressing here today. mr. representative secretary-general, mr. minister of foreign affairs of iraq, ladies and gentlemen, ministers, and permanent representatives, on behalf of the minister of foreign affairs of chile and our government, i am here to task a clear vote of solidarity with iraq and to send a message of encouragement to the administration of prime minister abadi, who has shouldered the crucial task of defending the integrity of his state. not only tod upon preserve its freedom, but also the ethnic, religious, and cultural diversity that has been one of its policies for a millennium. chile has expressed its

strongest condemnation of the barbaric message used by the self-styled islamic state to violent vision of a religion of peace and tolerance, which is islam. st's disregard for life -- it disregard for life, freedom of religion, and in general it's disregard for the norms of civilization such as the universal declaration of human rights and international covenant on civil and political butts calls for a forceful, legitimate response from the international community which should be sent from this body. this body whose task it is to preserve international peace and security in accordance with attorney of our organizations and international law. iraq has always been a central power in the middle east. its territorial integrity and

its democratic finally our requisite for regional stability and international peace and security. scrupulous respect for the constitutional and civil rights of the ethnic and religious communities that make up its social fabric. iraqratic governance in requires a government of national unity by implementing genuinely inclusive policies and by presenting a united front against terrorism and intolerance. this is the main task to be undertaken by the new government and for which the new government has our sole support. the united nations has a duty to assist iraq in this endeavor by putting behind its people the full weight of the actions of

collective security the demised by the charter which are conducted by its membership. represented for this purpose by the security council in keeping with article 25 of the charter. which wen 2170, unanimously adopted in august of this year under chapter seven in which chile cosponsored, is another step toward consolidation of the counterterrorism architecture of the multilateral system. poses a clear impetus for international efforts in the fight against terrorism, in particular in the middle east, by putting into place new measures to deal with terrorist that's that are -- groups are seriously impacting this year the of the region. another part of this architecture, discounter terror -- this counterterrorism architecture will be the

resolution on foreign terrorist fighters which will be discussed and adopted by this body next wednesday at a special meeting. the solitary of the international community which must encompass an effective humanitarian dimension in order to assist the populations affected by terrorism and violence, it is also vital to continue strict and diligent implementation of the sections regime established against alon 1267 qaeda and the taliban. reiteratesnt, chile that it is essential for any collective action against the islamic state to be sanctioned by the legitimacy of the charter of the united nations. we must act together and hopefully with the unanimous hacking of this council so that the counterterrorism efforts can

enjoy the firm support of the world opinion. legitimacy will allow more fluid integration of iraq into a regional and global community that needs it as a privileged harder in order to restore peace and security in a region which too long has been battered by war, barbarity, and oppression. thank you. much, youru very excellency. i appreciate that. it is not my pleasure to give the floor to the representative of nigeria -- it is now my pleasure to give the floor to the representative of nigeria. and secretarynt of state of the united states, i want to thank you for convening this very important debate. specialant to thank president of for his presentation. mr. president, the commission of a new inclusive government of

iraq in september is a landmark achievement in the political transition of that country. at least it set the stage for achieving a lasting peace, stability, and progress. we are encouraged by the resolve of iraq's political leaders to overcome their differences in the higher national interests. the decision by the former prime minister not to remain in office has contributed significantly to easing the political tensions in the country. this is a remarkable a couple shouldn't -- a couple shouldn't. -- accomplishment. also, the decision of leaders to set aside -- in order to facilitate the approval of the new government is

commendable. the prime minister has addressed his commitment to resolving all outstanding issues with the regional government. in our view, this development is an important element in giving everyone a sense of longing in the new iraq. while some cabinet posts have notefilled by abadi, we that the crucial positions a minister of defense and interior remain vacant. e posts that thes will be filled in due course and this is important in the light of iraq's security situation inflamed by the pestilence of isis. othertivities of is and terrorist troops pose a threat to the peace, stability, territorial integrity of iraq. in conjunction with terrorist groups all around the world, it

is important -- it is an important threat to global peace and security. isis has committed a violation of human rights, war crimes, and atrocities. their brutal activities flicting terror in eric. [indiscernible] 1000 420 iraqis were wered and another 1770 injured in exeter is him and violence in the month of august alone. of isis represent a grave threat, not just to correct, but everyone's peace and security. we have said that terrorism is a global problem that requires a global solution. the situation in iraq must not

be left for iraq to deal with alone. the world needs to stand together in tackling it, and mrs. very possible -- and this is very possible today. what is needed urgently is an urgent, decisive action by the international community in support of iraq. another significant aspect of this fight against isis is the need to counter a dangerous message which appears to be radicalizing young people all around the world and fueling the country for -- the conflict. in this regard, we note the leading role of the arab states in repudiating the dangers discussion of religion that isis propaganda attempts to spread throughout the region and the world. we welcome the declarations signed by the united nations and

the arab gulf states as well as iraq and egypt, jordan, and lebanon to fight isis. confront to confront and eliminate isis gather momentum, the international community must work in concert and effective coordination towards a collective common objective of ensuring a peaceful , prosperous, strong, and united iraq, and once and for all times free of the senseless ideology of destruction. i thank you. >> representative of nigeria, i thank you. i now recognize mr. president. we're grairtful t grateful to tl representative for his briefing.

humanitarian affairs and other u.n. agencies for hai their hard work. has so far provided $65 million for humanitarian aid and shelter. i was shocked by the dire situation of refugees. now, with winter approaching, we providek even harder to shelter for those who fled the attacks of isil. humanitarian aid is necessary, is not sufficient to stop the violence. the german government decided to provide the kurdish security forces with ammunition, equipment, as well as training. and of course, we are doing so thelose coordination with government in baghdad. humanitarian and

military assistance will be lack a broader strategy against isil, a is embedding the necessary military means and a political strategy. what are the aspects of the political strategy? first, we support the formation of a new government in iraq, ethnic,cludes all relirgreligious and political g. wish prime minister abadi every success. i has our full support and welcome the agreed statement from today, which is approved for the great support from all beyond theworld, far middle east region. second, syria. battleground which is different from that one in iraq and even more complex. continue to strengthening moderate voices and structures. are, from my point of view,

the only alternative to dictatorship or terrorism. we are grateful for the ongoing the united nations, exploring the ground for a solution, and should coordinate our engagement very u.n.ly with the institutions. and we hope that the u.n. secretary general envoy for syria will bring us new ideas hopefully a new approach, because we cannot allow fail again, perhaps the genevad round of process. concentrateed to today on iraq and syria, but we forget that some of the neighbor states are bearing a huge burden. to ease the hardship of the strangeefugees and the

on syria's neighbors, i will with --onference together the goal of this conference is to increase support for the countries most affected by refugee flows from syria, namely lebanon and jordan, but also iraq and turkey. thirdly, we need to stop the flow of foreign fighters and isil. will.n. security council take further action. we welcome the planned foreign terrorist fighters. yesterday, i met my new turkey, and we go agreed to cooperate very theely, especially on security sector. today we are worried about the attack ofs, after the and thethe syrian city, villages around. escape.n, people had to

previous discussions in newport paris. obviously here we are facing the in recente crisis history. the ongoing conflict in syria, policieswith misguided and practices of the former government in baghdad, has perfect environment for extremist and terrorist their to carry out despicable objectives. therefore, our priorities should be to devise policies and plans of action to change this environment. we need engagement within iraq as well as international cooperation to achieve this aim. this is why we have been frequently. but if these meetings fail to make a difference in the daily lives of the iraqi nation, we may risk losing our credibility. can see that there is a wide agreement on the need to devise implement a comprehensive

embracing political, sectarian and humanitarian elements. in the political field, we have to make sure that every nation aref the represented and that they have a meaningful role in the decision-making process. promisingade indeed a start to this engd wit -- end wh the formation of the new government under prime minister but they have a long and thorny road ahead. the challenges are real and complex. the new iraqi government needs situation, or come to long-lasting ethnic overcome long-lasting ethnic divisions and embrace all of society. that ithis process should be a long-term one. sustaining international support to iraq in the field of security another component of

this strategy. organized,es an coordinated flow of recruitment effort to help build the infrastructure of iraq. support iraqde and towards a future where they will themselves.efend restructuring the army and other organizations on a national basis should be part of these efforts. neither army nor other state structures should remain as an instrument of ethnic or sectarian groups. this is something, unfortunately, extremism and terrorist groups have greatly exploited. mr. president, dear colleagues, redoubling our humanitarian efforts is the third point to be highlighted. we have been doing our best since the beginning of the crisis and we appreciate the help provided by many of you present here.

we are also setting up three camps with a total capacity of northernople in the iraq. furthermore today, we are refugees, who sought refuge in turkey. yesterday we provided sanctuary to more than 10,000. 10,000, syrians, kurds, in one day, who had to isis advancing in syria. dear colleagues, more has to be done. and we call on the relevant toted nations agencies as coordinate all these efforts. underline a very

important factor in all these efforts. imperative to treat syria and iraq as a single center of action for the success of our strategy. ignoring syria in the struggle wouldn't bring a lasting the challenges we face today. regime -- its policy sectarianism and ethnic divisions, bringing instability and threat in the wider region. as long as the regime remains in damascus, stability can neither syria nor in this region. through aay is political solution, on the basis of the geneva declaration. before i conclude, i would like emphasize once again turkey's full support to iraq in efforts better political

environment free from extremism, against to fight back terrorism more effectively. we act in close coordination our allies and friends toward this end. al these efforts to create stable iraq can be more effective with increased collaboration. we are ready to further deepen our engagement with our aimed at bringing peace and stability to the region, and in the fight against extremism and terrorism. thank you very much. >> thank you very much. that.iate and we appreciate your efforts obviously your comments about syria as a frontline state, your efforts as frank walters said, will be critical. look forward to working with you. i give the floor now to his jose manuel garcia,

region must have a leading role driving isil back. peace and respect for humans and humanitarian rights are absolutely preconditions for prosperity, development and security. let us dismantle the arguments of those extremists who have fueled ethnic and religion antipathies or even created them. let us work towards tolerance between groups. extremism and terrorism must be fought on the ground, in the classrooms,in the in parliaments, on the internet, and on the humanitarian front. that is why norway will remain the main humanitarian contributors in iraq and in syria. far this year, we have provided $75 million u.s. the syrian crisis and

$30 million to iraq. today i announce an additional to alleviate the suffering of people of all communities who have fled violence caused by isil and others in iraq and syria. furthermore, norway is ready to send military officers to assist in international fights against isil in iraq. we are also considering further military capacity contributions. iraq will depend aavily on the move towards political solution in syria. in order to succeed, we need the -- a security council that is committed and united. this room,eement in the syrian people cannot be protected, nor can the destruction of syrian society be stopped. there is an urgent need, to stop thet,

terrorism. isil is more of a terrorist army traditional image of an isolated cell of extremists. a toxic mix of medieval ideology with modern weaponry. unusually high high arrogance, a sense of invincibility. they don't need to hide their vile acts. in fact, they bask in them and exploit the internet to try to disproportionate impact. they think that the more brutal more cowed we will be. they are wrong. they wanted attention. now they have it. to show them that they are more vulnerable than they realize. must also reject their world view whenever we find it. sadly, their extremist ideology blood-thirsty methods are shared by a growing number of s around the world.

i visited iraq. i talked to a christian family who had five minutes' notice to neighbors home, after told isil fighters about their religion. this rejection of religious free freedom, this severing of bonds nothistory, this is humanity. it is the law of the jungle. no nation state condones isil. i stated in paris earlier this week, this is not somebody else's problem. work together to each of our strengths and abilities. part, we're supporting iraqi forces in the front line against isil with the deployment of advisers and the delivery of equipment. regional efforts to stem the -- to stem the flow fighters. we welcome the leadership to work to cut off the finances of isil. and activer full support. and we are, of course, assisting urgent humanitarian

efforts. and as valerie reminds us, much fromhelp will be required all of us. and this especially includes combat sexual violence in conflict. that isilo question and its ilk are a real danger to global stability and security. terrorists talked openly about wanting to establish a kal caliphate from india to sprain. spain. to confront them, we must rely on the forces that helped shape history. we must defend human liberty and havety, principles that stroostood the test of fascism d anymorcommunism and now terror. thank you. thank his excellency for his statement. i give the floor to her

acts too gruesome to fathom, with no place in any religion, to profoundly vex us. executed for theare crime of being different. women and children are raped and ensave -- enslaved and remain vulnerable victims. these agents of death and localction thrive on fear, on national sectarianism, on international apathy. have we stood on the unacceptable violence in the region. we witnessed inaction in the made us council that bystanders in the face of horrors committed in syria over three and a half years. a fact, the latest report by the of inquiry onn syria, reminds us of once more. the killingt ignore of over 190,000 people in syria. leads parties to

operate with impunity and violence that has consumed both syria as well as iraq. we are faced by a global enemy, active across a great responsibility lies upon this global organization, the united nations. iraqong, moreover, has been devoid of unity. pivotal role for the new iraqi government. the first steps are in the right i thank you for that. i strongly encourage you, the iraqi government, to maintain a credible, inclusive course all the way. grievances of sunni arab populations should be to achievef you want a durable solution. andlong have people in iraq syria lived in fear, while only the absence of this fear can them the peace they so
