Security Council Hears Briefings by Chairs of Subsidiary Bodies Concerning Islamic State
The Chairs of three terrorism related Security Council subsidiary bodies briefed members this morning, reporting on the activities of its Committee's concerning Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant/Al Qaida and associated groups, counter terrorism and sanctions.
Gerard van Bohemen (New Zealand), Chair of the Committee concerning Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL/Da'esh), Al Qaida and associated individuals, groups, undertakings and entities, said ISIL had lost control of some territory, and the destruction of significant parts of its oil infrastructure had led to a drop in its internal capacity to generate revenue. In response, the group was looking to increase its revenues through internal taxation, the smuggling of antiquities and kidnapping for ransom. While some foreign terrorist fighters returned from conflict zones disillusioned by what they had experienced, others returned radicalized, battle hardened and well networked.
He went on to warn that such fighters posed a van cleef green bracelet copy great risk to the wider international community. It was difficult to detect their travel because many used broken travel routes to and from conflict zones, which made it much harder to track them. ISIL affiliates were steadily gaining footholds in Libya, Afghanistan and Yemen, becoming increasingly important to the main group's survival. Noting that the movement of funds and fighters outside ISIL controlled territory provided an opportunity for Member States to detect and prevent its spreading further afield, he said that sanctions, when effectively targeted and implemented, could exert pressure on ISIL and its affiliates, preventing them from distributing funds and disrupting further attacks on civilian populations.
Council President Amr Abdellatif Aboulatta (Egypt) then briefed in his capacity as Chair of the Counter Terrorism Committee. "Terrorist groups continue to identify innovative funding methods, and the international community must be equipped with the tools to mount an effective response," he emphasized. The Counter Terrorism Committee had identified good practices in stemming the flow of foreign terrorist fighters while enhancing its cooperation with international and regional organizations. It was also developing new tools to facilitate dialogue among Member States on implementation of resolutions1373(2001) and1624(2005). Guiding principles identified at the Committee's recent special meeting included a focus on helping Member States with detecting, intervening and preventing the recruitment of foreign terrorist fighters, stopping their travel, as well as criminalizing, prosecuting and rehabilitating them, he said.
Romn Oyarzun Marchesi (Spain), Chair of the 1540Committee concerning non proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, said that body had undertaken a steadily increasing number of measures in implementation of resolution1540(2004), but, given the varying capacities of Member States, that was a long term task, requiring continuous attention. ISIL had a chemical weapons programme and was drawing on available technology and materials to develop improvised devices. He warned that advances in science and technology posed a risk of misuse, despite their important humanitarian and economic benefits.
In the ensuing debate, Senegal's representative echoed that sentiment, noting that rapid advances in science and technology, as well as spreading globalization, enabled terrorists to gain access to weapons of mass destruction. He underscored the need to build on the momentum from a February meeting in Cte d'Ivoire on the implementation of resolution1540(2004) and to strengthen cooperation between the Council's subsidiary committees and the continent.
The Russian Federation's representative said the effectiveness of the three committees would determine the Security Council's future counter terrorism efforts. Smuggled artefacts, as well as oil and fighters, were traversing Turkey, he said, stressing that the international community must acknowledge those facts in order to overcome the common threat posed by ISIL.
Japan's representative said that countering the flow of foreign fighters and finances was of key importance in combating terrorism them, noting that his country had provided assistance to some countries in the form of fingerprint and facial recognition technology.
Venezuela's representative said the fight against terrorism should be conducted through international cooperation, with full respect for sovereignty and international law.
Angola's representative said that sanctions alone could not win the fight, emphasizing instead the imperative of strengthening international and local cooperation in seeking creative ways to launch an ideological effort against terrorism.
Also speaking today were representatives of China, United States, Uruguay, Malaysia, France, United Kingdom and Ukraine. The group had lost control of some territory, and the destruction of significant parts of its oil infrastructure had led to a drop in its internal revenue generation. In response, however, ISIL was looking to increase revenues through internal taxation, the smuggling of antiquities and kidnapping for ransom. As reported by the Monitoring Team, ISIL's centre of gravity was shifting, and the threat it posed was expanding geographically as its affiliates sprang van cleef and arpels copy bracelet up around the world. While some foreign terrorist fighters had returned from conflict zones disillusioned by what they had experienced, others returned radicalized, battle hardened and well networked, he said, warning that such fighters posed a great risk to the wider international community. It was also difficult to detect the travel of foreign terrorist fighters, he said, pointing out that many used broken travel routes to and from conflict zones, making it much harder to track them.
It was, therefore, essential that Member States share information to facilitate better detection and disruption of travel by foreign terrorist fighters, he continued. Furthermore, ISIL affiliates were steadily gaining footholds in Libya, Afghanistan and Yemen, becoming increasingly important to the main group's survival. It was crucial that Member States, particularly those neighbouring Iraq and Syria, exercise vigilance in implementing the 1267regime, he emphasized. The movement of funds and fighters outside ISIL controlled territory provided an opportunity for Member States to detect and prevent it from spreading further afield, he said. When effectively targeted and implemented, sanctions could exert pressure on ISIL and its affiliates, preventing the dispersal of funds and disrupting further attacks on civilian populations. Among other things, it was crucial that Member States engage with and provide updated information to the Monitoring Team and the 1267Committee on the nature of threats, listed individuals and entities.
AMR ABDELLATIF ABOULATTA (Egypt), Council President for May, spoke in his capacity as Chair of the Counter Terrorism Committee, established pursuant to resolution1373(2001), on threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts.
Providing an overview of the Counter Terrorism Committee's recent activities, he said it had taken a wide range of actions to help Member States address pressing threats, including flows of foreign terrorist fighters. In addressing that threat, the Committee was developing new tools to facilitate dialogue among Member States on implementing resolutions1373(2001) and1624(2005). It had also identified gaps and good practices in stemming the flow of foreign terrorist fighters while enhancing cooperation with international and regional organizations. Guiding principles identified at the Committee's recent special meeting included a focus on helping Member States with detecting, intervening and preventing the recruitment of foreign terrorist fighters, stopping their travel, as well as criminalizing, prosecuting and rehabilitating them, he said. The Committee had presented the results of the related survey of Member States to the Security Council in January, he recalled.
Turning to the use of information and communications technologies for terrorist purposes, he said that a special meeting held in December2015 had considered ways to develop a multistakeholder approach. With support from the Counter Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED), it would hold another meeting to follow up on partnerships established with key private sector players. As new terrorist financing trends emerged, he said that disrupting those flows presented significant challenges to Member States. "Terrorist groups continue to identify innovative funding methods, and the international community, especially those Member States directly affected, must be equipped with the tools required to mount an effective response," he emphasized. To address that challenge, he said, the Counter Terrorism Committee would convene, in December, bracelet replica van cleef alhambra a joint meeting with the ISIL and Al Qaida Sanctions Committee, in which the Financial Action Task Force would also participate.
He went on to state that participants in a recent joint open briefing had discussed the possibility of granting national financial intelligence units access to personal information in order to ensure more effective sharing of social security and tax records subject to domestic laws. The Counter Terrorism Committee recognized that its effectiveness rested on how rapidly it carried out its work, he said, noting that it had been implementing measures to improve its responsiveness. As such, it had requested that the CTED present findings immediately following visits to Member States, most recently Ghana, Kenya, Sri Lanka and Iraq. The Committee had also met informally with Iraq, the donor community and technical assistance providers to discuss collective efforts to build that country's counter terrorism capacity, thereby marking a significant improvement from previous practices, he said.
ROMN OYARZUN MARCHESI (Spain), Chair of the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution1540(2004) concerning the non proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, said extreme violence was stronger than ever. Recent reports by the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) and discussions in the Council had proven that ISIL had a chemical weapons programme and was developing improvised devices, drawing on available technology and materials. The need to counter the constantly evolving nature of terrorism was complicated by rapid advances in science, technology and commerce, he said, warning that, despite their important humanitarian and economic benefits, they posed a risk of misuse that Member States must address.
Regarding implementation of resolution1540(2004), he noted that, since 2010, there had been a steady increase in the measures undertaken. Due to the varying capacities of Member States, it was clear that full implementation was a long term task, requiring continuous attention. In order to advance effective implementation, it was crucial that the Council further strengthen the Committee's direct interaction with Member States, he emphasized. Among other things, the increase in the development of voluntary national implementation action plans had proven to be important in engaging national stakeholders and improving their internal coordination.
The Committee needed to improve its assistance mechanism, he said, adding that it had decided to take a regional approach. In accordance with that decision, it had held a meeting in Addis Ababa, bringing African States together with providers to discuss the delivery of assistance. On outreach, he said that despite mandate related constraints, the Committee had enjoyed some remarkable successes. Visits to Member States and national round tables had proven successful in promoting the development of voluntary national implementation action plans, he said, highlighting the introduction of training courses for national 1540 points of contact as another innovation in outreach.
JULIO HELDER MOURA LUCAS (Angola) said the briefings had demonstrated the Council's dedication to addressing the pernicious challenge of terrorism. The return of foreign terrorist fighters from Syria posed a great risk to the international community while providing an opportunity to improve the impact of the 1267sanctions regime. However, sanctions alone could not win the fight, he said, emphasizing the imperative of strengthening international to local cooperation in order to find creative ways to launch an ideological effort to combat terrorism. Flows of foreign terrorist fighters and terrorist financing must end, he said, urging increased coordination among global and regional stakeholders. Saying he was worried about terrorists and other non State actors acquiring weapons of mass destruction, he voiced appreciation of the 1540Committee's efforts in that regard.
WU HAITAO (China) said his delegation appreciated the progress made in the three committees. ISIL and other terrorist forces posed a serious threat to the international community, which should use a number of means to counter them on the basis of nationally appropriate approaches. Sanctions lists should be kept up to date and efforts should remain in line with the work of the relevant committee. He noted the Counter Terrorism Committee's country visits, hosting of meetings and sharing of information on tackling the presence of terrorists on the Internet. The 1540Committee would soon focus on a comprehensive review, which would help to further strengthen the capacity of Member States to halt the proliferation of weapons among terrorist groups. It was also important to fight regional threats in all their forms, he said, noting that countermeasures should not target specific ethnicities or religions. Instead, a high intensity campaign must be undertaken to halt terrorism, he said, stressing that China would continue to support the work of the three committees.
EVGENY T. ZAGAYNOV (Russian Federation) said the effectiveness of the three committees would determine the Security Council's future counter terrorism efforts at a time when terrorist groups posed a grave threat. Most serious was ISIL, which had gained a foothold in Libya and other fragile countries. Implementation of the relevant resolutions remained the main problem, and a special responsibility rested with Member States that were neighbours of affected countries. Data demonstrated that smuggled artefacts, oil and fighters were taking routes that traversed Turkey, he said, emphasizing in that regard, that the international community must acknowledge those facts so as to be able to overcome the common threat posed by ISIL. Since the 1540Committee was visiting Member States and undertaking actions, including review of its efforts, it required fine tuning rather than radical changes, he said, stressing in that regard, that Member States could cooperate directly with the 1540Committee while avoiding duplicative efforts that would be detrimental to its work.
MICHELE SISON (United States) said that, despite the progress made in the fight against terrorism, more must be done in light of its spread around the world. Calling attention to the increasing number of terrorist fighters returning home, she said they posed significant problems for their respective societies, adding that it was clear that no country was immune, and calling upon all to take a unified approach. She emphasized the need for full implementation of the relevant Security Council resolutions, saying that was central to counter terrorism efforts. On the Counter Terrorism Committee, she said the implementation of sanctions remained of key importance. She also stressed the need to generate international resources to identify the vulnerabilities of Member States. Turning to the work of the 1540Committee, she said the relevant resolution provided guidance on countering the activities of Da'esh and encouraged Member States to redouble their efforts.
HENRY ALFREDO SUREZ MORENO (Venezuela) said the fight against terrorism should be conducted through international cooperation, with sovereignty and international law taken into account, emphasizing that preventing terrorist financing and training was essential for progress. On ISIL, he noted that although the group was weaker, it remained a source of concern. While commending the work of the ISIL/Al Qaida Sanctions Committee, he stressed the importance of transparency and independence. Venezuela also supported the work of the 1373Committee on counter terrorism, he said, noting that its reports provided great guidance. It was crucial to dismantle the funding sources of terrorist organizations and to address the root causes of extremism, he said in conclusion.
YOSHIFUMI OKAMURA (Japan) said that, with the world facing frequent terrorist attacks, countering the flows of foreign terrorist fighters and finances was of key importance in combating them alongside full implementation of the relevant Council resolutions. Noting national advances in such areas as fingerprint and face recognition technology at borders and airports, he said that because terrorists exploited vulnerable countries lacking such capacities, Japan had provided some of them with assistance, including fingerprint readers that linked to identification databases. It had also taken measures to share information on terrorist finances at the national and regional levels, he said, emphasizing the links between terrorist activities and trafficking in drugs and human beings, as well as oil smuggling. With that in mind, any counter terrorism measures must also consider links with transnational organized crime. Non proliferation was also critical, he said, noting Japan's efforts to share knowledge in that regard.
GORGUI CISS (Senegal) said the timely briefings had taken place as violent terrorist attacks occurred worldwide. A multisectoral approach was needed to combat that trend, with resolution1540(2004) allowing a cohesive approach to facing terrorism around the world. Rapid advances in science and technology, as well as spreading globalization enabled terrorists to gain access to weapons of mass destruction, he said, recalling that February meeting in Cte d'Ivoire on the implementation of resolution1540(2004) had further advanced efforts across Africa. To building on that momentum, there was a need for continued and strengthened cooperation between the committees and the continent. There was also a need to bolster the sharing of information and intelligence so as to halt the recruitment of foreign terrorist fighters, he said, pointing out that they posed a real threat to origin, transit and destination countries. Better border control management was also necessary to address that problem without undermining the free circulation of goods and persons.
