Ms. Lassen S/PV.10006 Sept. 26, 2025

Let me also start by welcoming the representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran to this meeting. Iran has been in non-compliance with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action since 2019, and the expiration date of the agreement has been known to all of us for the past decade. The activation of the …

Ms. Lassen S/PV.10005 Sept. 24, 2025

First, let me thank the Secretary-General for his remarks, as well as the two briefers, Professor Bengio and Professor Choi, for sharing their insights with us. I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to the Republic of Korea for convening us today and for its tireless efforts in the do…

Mr. Rasmussen S/PV.10003 Sept. 23, 2025

At the outset, I want to thank Mr. Cho Hyun, Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea, for convening this meeting. I also want to thank the Secretary-General for his very insightful briefing. Through the chaos of this abhorrent war, he has consistently raised his voice and that of the U…

Mr. Rasmussen S/PV.10004 Sept. 23, 2025

I thank the Republic of Korea for convening this meeting, and I thank the Secretary-General for his briefing. I warmly welcome the participation of President Zelenskyy and his important statement today. With no quick military victory, Russia’s leaders switched tactics to terrorize Ukraine into subm…

Mr. Rasmussen S/PV.10002 Sept. 22, 2025

First of all, I would like to thank Assistant Secretary-General Jenča for his informative briefing. Ten days ago, in this Chamber, Denmark’s representative expressed our condemnation of the violations of Poland’s airspace by Russian military drones (see S/PV.9995), and within four days, another Rus…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.10001 Sept. 19, 2025

At the outset, let me thank the presidency for presenting this draft resolution (S/2025/561) in line with the procedures described in resolution 2231 (2015). I also wish to welcome the participation of the Permanent Representative of Iran in this meeting. Ten years ago, a landmark diplomatic achiev…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.10000 Sept. 18, 2025

I take the floor to respond to the comments made by the representative of Israel. This draft resolution (S/2025/583) was drafted by the 10 elected members of the Security Council (E10), coordinated by Denmark as the E10 coordinator. With all due respect, we do not recognize the process that was des…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.10000 Sept. 18, 2025

Denmark voted in favour of the draft resolution (S/2025/583). We did so because we believe that the Council, as the custodian of international peace and security, has the responsibility to act decisively to address the situation in Gaza. We deeply regret that that was not possible today. By voting …

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9999 Sept. 18, 2025

I thank Special Envoy Pedersen and Under-Secretary- General Fletcher for their briefings. Let me also thank Ms. Chourbaji, not only for her statement, but also for her tireless activism and advocacy for women in Syria. I also welcome the participation of the new Permanent Representative of the Syria…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.10000 Sept. 18, 2025

I have the honor to deliver this statement on behalf of the 10 elected members of the Security Council, namely Algeria, Greece, Guyana, Pakistan, Panama, the Republic of Korea, Sierra Leone, Slovenia, Somalia and my own country, Denmark. As elected members, we represent every region of the world. I…

Ms. Landi S/PV.9998 Sept. 17, 2025

I would like to thank Special Representative Otunbayeva for her briefing and her service to the people of Afghanistan as we approach the end of her mandate. I thank Ms. Girowal, for her leadership. Denmark stands with her in her fight for an Afghanistan where all women and girls can live in dignity …

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9996 Sept. 15, 2025

I thank Special Envoy Grundberg and Under-Secretary- General Fletcher for their briefings, and I welcome the participation of the Permanent Representative of Yemen in our meeting today. For the past month, we have seen an alarming escalation in the region and in Yemen, where the Houthis’ actions co…

Ms. Landi S/PV.9994 Sept. 12, 2025

I thank High Representative Nakamitsu for her briefing, and I welcome the representative of the Syrian Arab Republic to our meeting. I know that Ambassador Olabi has worked closely with the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), and we look forward to hearing from him. I would …

Ms. Landi S/PV.9993 Sept. 12, 2025

Let me thank the United States for leading this negotiation. Denmark voted in favour of this resolution (resolution 2791 (2025)). We welcome the extension of the sanctions regime in the Sudan and its alignment with the mandate of the Panel of Experts on the Sudan. For far too long, the people of th…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9995 Sept. 12, 2025

Denmark fully supports Poland in calling for this emergency meeting in response to the serious violations of its airspace by drones launched from Russian and Belarusian territory. We thank the presidency for heeding this call so swiftly, and we thank Under-Secretary-General DiCarlo for her informati…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9991 Sept. 9, 2025

I once again congratulate the Republic of Korea for assuming the presidency of the Council and thank Panama for an excellent presidency in August. One year ago, world leaders convened in New York to adopt the Pact for the Future. It was a moment of hope and determination, driven by a collective rec…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9990 Aug. 29, 2025

I also wish to thank Assistant Secretary-General Jenča for his informative and sobering briefing. Denmark, along with France, Greece, Slovenia and the United Kingdom, supported Ukraine in its call for this urgent meeting. We did so, firm in our conviction that, when faced with a clear and blatant t…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9988 Aug. 28, 2025

Let me also thank the Secretary-General and Executive Director Russell for their briefings. Time and again, they have sounded the alarm and drawn the world’s attention to the dire situation in Haiti. Denmark commends their leadership. I thank Jean Jean Roosevelt for his passionate call for action fo…

Ms. Lassen S/PV.9989 Aug. 28, 2025

I wish to thank and extend my gratitude to the penholder, France, for having conducted these negotiations that led to the unanimous approval of resolution 2790 (2025).

Mr. Bay S/PV.9986 Aug. 26, 2025

I asked for the floor to respond to the comments made by the representative of the Russian Federation. Denmark is very concerned about attacks against critical infrastructure.
