Summary

The United Nations Security Council often faces challenges in maintaining international security, particularly when addressing complex security issues, such as terrorism, terrorism-related activities and other non-state actor activities that threaten global security. These challenges have been a major focus of the Council in recent years, as various organizations working together on global challenges. In 2017, the Security Council adopted a new agenda focused on countering terrorism. This agenda is based on the principles of preventing, mitigating and addressing terrorism-related activities and non-state actors, which are key threats to global security. The Council has implemented several mechanisms to enhance cooperation on global challenges. These initiatives help coordinate efforts to reduce the risk of terrorism-related activities and non-state actor activities. Additionally, the Council has established frameworks for regional cooperation on various issues that could potentially compromise global security.

The Council has established the Non-Proliferation of Chemical Weapons Convention (NPT), a comprehensive international treaty that requires the non-proliferation of chemical weapons. The NPT was signed by over 90 countries, including Russia and China, in 1993. The Convention requires all parties to sign, join, ratify or accept the treaty. The treaty includes provisions on the protection of persons, the prohibition of the transfer of chemical weapons, and the prohibition of non-state actors from using chemical weapons.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) was established in 2002 by the Security Council to prosecute war criminals and persons responsible for grave breaches and other serious violations of the Geneva Conventions of 1949 or the Hague Conventions of 1953. The ICC's primary mandate is to prosecute individuals responsible for the most serious violations of international law. This body aims to provide an additional layer of international justice for crimes such as genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and the crime of aggression. The ICC has an enforcement arm that works with national courts to prosecute these individuals.

The Security Council has also adopted the Arms Control Act, a framework designed to ensure that the use of arms remains consistent and compatible with global security. The Act applies to countries that are members of the Security Council, while it does not apply to sovereign states. Under the Act, the Council is the body that decides which countries are members. The act requires members to maintain and improve arms control arrangements, including negotiations for arms reduction and non-proliferation treaties. The Council also requires members to report on the implementation of arms control agreements and the status of arms control-related issues.
