Content_paragraphs: My decision to repatriate a military contingent in September 2021 is an 
  
  expression of my zero-tolerance policy and meant to communicate the seriousness 
  
  with which the United Nations takes all allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse. 
  
  I deeply regret the harm caused to victims and reiterate the commitment of the United 
  
  Nations to work with partners to ensure that every victim receives assistance. 
  
  Furthermore, the United Nations will continue to ensure that every allegation is 
  
  thoroughly investigated, and I call upon Member States to work jointly with us to that 
  
  end. I further urge all troop- and police-contributing countries to enact active 
  
  measures to prevent and combat such violations. I reiterate my commitment to 
  
  eradicate sexual exploitation and abuse and reaffirm my instructions to all United 
  
  Nations personnel and those working under the United Nations flag to do the same.
