Statement by the Deputy Permanent Representative of Cuba, H.E. Mrs. Ana Silvia Rodríguez Abascal, at the Debate on the Plan of Action to Prevent Violent Extremism. New York, 12 February 2016.
Mr. President,
We resolutely support United Nations collective efforts in its struggle against terrorism. United Nations Global Strategy against Terrorism is a landmark in the international confrontation of this scourge, and bestows the General Assembly with the core role in these efforts, as it should be. Any effort in this matter should be under the pillars of the Strategy.
We take note of the Secretary General’s initiative contained in document A/70/674 and his effort to draft a Plan of Action to prevent Violent Extremism.
Mr. President,
