U.N. Counter Terrorism Committee

U.N. Counter Terrorism Committee continues to languish from a lack of direction and qualified staff. U.N. Counter Terrorism Committee is a platform for mutual assistance and international cooperation in tracking down and prosecuting terrorists and charged with assisting member countries in drafting new laws and regulations to combat terrorism. U.N. Counter Terrorism Committee efforts were dissipated by an inability to engage countries in any meaningful dialogue concerning their counter-terrorism activities. The U.N. Security Council sought revitalization of U.N. Counter Terrorism Committee with a new mandate in U.N. Security Council Resolution 1566. Even so, U.N. Counter Terrorism Committee continues to languish from a lack of direction and qualified staff.
