And we are very fortunate to have with us today the UN Under-Secretary-General Michelle Bachelet, the first head of UN Women. I am delighted by her appointment and very grateful for her commitment and the excellent presentation that she has already delivered. I also want to recognize Special Representative of the Secretary General Wallstrom, who is working very hard and needs the support of all of us to implement Resolution 1888 concerning sexual and gender violence. These women are both dedicated advocates for women's rights and participation. And I also want to thank Under Secretary General Le Roy, whose Department of Peacekeeping Operations has taken groundbreaking steps to implement Resolution 1325. Thank you for increasing protection measures for vulnerable women and children and for integrating gender advisors into all missions.
