SLOVAKIAN PRESIDENT CALLS FOR REFORMS TO INTERNATIONAL SECURITY SECTOR
TO ENSURE PEACENew York, Sep 24 2013 6:00PMThe international system
must implement security sector reforms to adequately address conflicts
and terrorism, as well consolidate peace and the rule of law in
post-conflict regions, the
<"http://gadebate.un.org/68/slovakia">Slovakian President told the
United Nations General Assembly today.

"We cannot have a secure, safe and stable environment without
effective arms control and disarmament procedures in place as the
basic instrument for conflict prevention," Ivan Gašparovic told world
leaders on the first day of the Assembly's annual Debate.

"The signing of the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) has shown that the UN has
the potential to make history and substantively contribute to
increasing security in the world through its shared commitment to
taking a responsible approach to arms trading."

Mr. Gašparovic said Slovakia is prepared to do everything necessary to
help the treaty enter into force. The ATT is the first international
treaty regulating the global arms trade. It was overwhelmingly
approved earlier this year in the UN General Assembly. The vote was
the culmination of a decades-long push to halt illegal shipments of
weapons such as missiles, combat aircraft and attack helicopters.

He also endorsed other international treaties that would help address
security issues such as the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty
(CTBT), which would ban all nuclear tests in all environments, for
military or civilian purposes, and called on the international
community to reach an agreement on a comprehensive convention on
international terrorism.

"Terrorism continues to remain one of the most serious threats to
peace and security. It plays a key role in many conflicts. A majority
of its victims are civilians," he said. "We can find a solution
through our joint efforts only, under the UN's auspices."

In addition, Mr. Gašparovic emphasized that security sector reform is
a key component in post-conflict development and in strengthening the
rule of law, and reiterated Slovakia's commitment to work with the UN
to build the Organization's capacities in this regard.

"If we cannot give people security, safety, education and jobs, they
will be quick to draw guns again in desperation," he said. "There can
be no peace without economic stability and prosperity."

To prevent further conflicts, countries must ensure sustainable
development and social stability, two topics which will be addressed
during this session of the General Assembly. This has enormous
potential to be effective if countries work together, he said, adding
that: "Slovakia wants to actively participate in the preparation of
development goals beyond 2015 and is getting ready for a new stage in
development cooperation."Sep 24 2013 6:00PM
