UNITED NATIONS, July 22 (Xinhua) — The United Nations Security Council on Tuesday unanimously adopted Resolution 2788, aimed at strengthening mechanisms for the peaceful settlement of international disputes.
The document urges all UN Member States to make effective use of the mechanisms listed in Article 33 of the UN Charter, including negotiation, inquiry, mediation, conciliation, arbitration, judicial settlement, resort to regional organizations or arrangements and other peaceful means at their discretion.
It is noted that the UN Security Council is ready to use the mechanism provided for in Article 34 of the UN Charter, which gives it the authority to investigate any dispute or any situation that could lead to international friction in order to determine whether the continuation of the dispute could threaten international peace and security.
Resolution 2788 reaffirms the role of the UN Security Council in recommending appropriate procedures or methods of settlement for the peaceful settlement of disputes and calls upon Member States to take the necessary measures to effectively implement UN Security Council instruments on the peaceful settlement of disputes.
The UN Secretary-General is called upon to ensure the organization's ability to lead and support mediation and preventive diplomacy efforts, the resolution says. It also calls on the Secretary-General to continue to provide his good offices and on Member States to support and cooperate with the UN chief in this regard.
The Security Council urged regional and subregional organizations to intensify efforts to peacefully resolve disputes in accordance with the UN Charter and relevant Security Council resolutions, and member states to support the role of regional and subregional organizations in this regard. The document calls for strengthening cooperation between the aforementioned organizations and the UN.
Within a year, the UN Secretary-General must present concrete recommendations for further strengthening mechanisms for the peaceful settlement of disputes, the resolution says. –0–
