UN to give more prominence to human rights abuse in Y'slavia
GENEVA. Feb 2 The UN Commission on Human Rights decMed in Geneva February 1 to give more prominence to the question of human rights violations in the former Yugoslavia, reports USIS.
"Any less treatment of this gravest of today's human tragedies would reflect on our credibility as the world's principal body for the protection of human rights," Ambassador Morris Abram, US permanent representative to the United Nations in Geneva, told the opening of the 1993 session of the 53-n»ember com mission.
The situation in the territory of the former Yugoslavia raises a paramount issue on the human rights agenda of mankind," Abram said. He recalled that the gravity of the rights violations had caused the UN Security Council to establish a commission looking Into war crime in Yugoslavia's former republics -- the first since the Nuremberg trials that prosecuted World War Two Nazi war criminals
The Commission on Human Rights decided to examine violations of human rights and other fundamental freedoms in the former Yugoslavia during the second week of Its six-week session. Had it not decided on such an action, the subject of Yugoslavia would have been considered much later in the session, under the general agenda item on human rights violations "in any part of the world."
The whole world knows what 1s happening, and we cannot fall to speak to the horrors” of the siluation tn Yugoslavia, Abram said. "Violations occur every day. even away from the battlefield.
"Hundreds and thousands, even millions, of people are affected. People remain In
detention, or are expelled from their homes by force or psychological pressure Relief supplies are blocked from needy areas. The rights of the majority Albanian population In Kosovo arc repressed by Serbian authorities. Rapes go unpunished, disappear ances unaccounted for."
And "what Is worse." Abram said, "those responsible have shown absolutely no sign of repentance or reform."
He said the nations on the commission - the United Nations’ principal human rights watchdog body — have a “collective responsibility' to protect human rights in the former Yugoslavia, especially os their violation "threatens the peace of Europe and, indeed, perhaps the peace of the world."
The commission has already held two special sessions, In 1992. devoted to viola tlons of human rights in the former Yugoslavia, particular^ tn Bosnia-Herzegovina since that republic voted to
* become independent In February 1992
During the February 1 March 12 session, the commission will also receive a detailed
report by its special rappor teur on violations in the former Yugoslavia. Tadeusz Mazowlecki.
The US delegation to this Ctrs commission will be aded by Ambassador Richard Schifter. Abram Is alternate delegation head jointly with Ambassador J Kenneth Blackwell, US representative to the 1992 commission session
