"Mr President, as the previous speaker said, this resolution is addressed to the parties to the CITES Convention meeting in Nairobi in April. We are addressing them to try to preserve species under renewed threat, species like the Asian pangolin, the gorillas of the Congo, the elephants – through the sale of ivory – and the other species mentioned in the resolution.
I want to refer briefly to three essential measures which ought to be taken in Nairobi in the days ahead. The first is providing information and raising awareness amongst the public, the buyers and sellers. The second is sanction mechanisms against those who have not yet adopted legal measures to stop poachers, in particular, benefiting from impunity. And the third is cooperation with developing countries, because sometimes trafficking and trading in threatened species is the only way to survive in their rural areas."@en1
