Excellencies,you are the United Nations. (46) The staff who were killed and injured in theattack on our Baghdad headquarter were your staff. You had given them a mandateto assist the suffering Iragi people, and to help Irag recover its national sovereignty. In future, notonly in Iraq but also wherever the United Nations is engaged, we must take moreeffective measures to protect the security of our staff. I count on your fullsupport-legal, political and financial. (47)Meanwhile, let me reaffirm the great importance attach to a successful outcome in Irag.Whatever view each of us may take of the events of recent months. it is vital forall of us that the outcome is a stable and democratic Irag, at peace with itself and withits neighbors, and contributing to stability in the region. In that context Ideplore-as I am sure you all do-the brutal attempt on the life of Dr. Akilaal-Hashemi, a member of the Governing Council, and I pray for her full recovery, too. Subject tosecurity considerations, the United Nations system is prepared to play its fullpart in working for a satisfactory outcome in Irag, and to do so as part of an effort bythe whole international community, pulling together on the basis of a sound andviable policy. (48) If it takes extra time and patience to make a policy that iscollective, coherent and workable, then I for one would regard that time as well spent.Indeed, this is how we must approach all the many pressing crises that confront ustoday. Excellencies,three years ago, when you came here for the Millennium Summit, we had a sharedvision of global solidarity and collective security, expressed in the MillenniumDeclaration. Butrecent events have called that consensus in question. (49) All of us know there are newthreats that must be faced, perhaps, old threats in new and dangerouscombinations: new forms of terrorism, and the proliferation of weapons of massdestruction. But,while some consider these threats as self-evidently the main challenge to world peace andsecurity, others feel more immediately threatened by small arms employed incivil conflict, or by so-called "soft threats"such as the persistenceof extreme poverty,the disparity of income between and within societies, the spread of infectious diseases,or climate change and environmental degradation. But, while someconsider these threats as self-evidently the main challenge to world peace andsecurity, others feel more immediately threatened by small arms employed incivil conflict, or by so-called"soft threats" such as the persistenceof extreme poverty,the disparity of income between and within societies, the spread of infectiousdiseases, or climate change and environmental degradation. Intruth, we do not have to choose. The United Nations must confront all these threats andchallenges-new and old, "hardand "soft". It must be fullyengaged in the struggle for development and poverty eradication, startingwith the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals in the struggle to protectour common environment; and in the struggle for human rights, democracy andgood governance.(50) In fact, all these struggles are linked. We now see, with chilling clarity, that aworld where many millions of people endure brutal oppression and extreme miserywill never be fully secure, even for its most privileged inhabitants. Yetthe "hard"threats, such as terrorism and weapons of mass destruction,are real, and cannotbe ignored.
