Violence against Peacekeepers no more? 

2/6/2016

0 Comments

 
After intense discussions yesterday and brief overviews today, the Human Rights council signed its culmination with the acceptance of a new resolution on the topic Violence against Peacekeepers which was completed without as much clashing and burning unlike the previous resolution during which new amendments were discussed, dismantled and reconstructed repeatedly. 
The new resolution compiles the following articles: definition of immunity falling on the members of the peacekeeping operations as being insusceptible to to legal prosecution from acts performed by them within their official functions; a list of actions to be taken to reduce the misconduct of the peacekeepers such as promoting adequate training to the area they will be deployed in and would include language, culture and knowledge of the conflict; provision of interpreters to soften the language barrier; an article of ten subpoints was added describing the correct and acceptable  behaviour of a peacekeeper such as displaying dignity, respect, care, maturity and consideration to everyone and everything in their surroundings; no indulgence in any types of abuse imaginable against the population; respect the human rights of all; no excessive consumption of alcohol and trafficking in drugs; expelled peacekeepers would not have the possibility of returning to the cause; the countries are encouraged to promote the psychological preparation of officials, defense of gender equality and the promotion of female leaders; crimes committed by peacekeepers will face more severe legal actions than regular civilians; creation of a High Commission for the Surveillance of Peaceekeping Missions that would apply legal measures where they are necessary; promotion of education and information among civilians in order to acquaint them with the peacekeeping forces; a reminder of the importance of executing legal action towards prosecuted peacekeepers; fight against corruption; endorsement of the China-UN Peace and Development Fund aimed at supporting the UN's work and further actions to maximise security. 
The countries presenting the resolution were the United States of America, Russia and India – the final draft of the agreement was accepted and received intense support by all the countries in the room.
