The situation represents a failure of the international community, he told reporters earlier Monday, before the adoption of the resolution.
He said the resolution, which his country championed, is "definitely a step forward."
Resolution 2427, which won unanimous approval of the 15 members of the council, strongly condemns the recruitment and use of children by parties to armed conflict as well as their re-recruitment, killing and maiming, rape and other forms of sexual violence, and abductions.
It also emphasizes the responsibility of all states to put an end to impunity and to investigate and prosecute those responsible for genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and other egregious crimes perpetrated against children.
The resolution states that children in armed conflict should be treated primarily as victims.
