United Nations Disarmament Commission holds annual session
The United Nations Disarmament Commission closed its three week long 2009 substantive session on 1 May.
Although the Disarmament Commission had
not been able to agree on elements of a draft declaration of the 2010s
as the fourth disarmament decade - the Commission’s main task this
year - a good basis for next year’s deliberations had been achieved,
Commission Chairman Andrzej Towpik (Poland) told delegates at the
closing of its 2009 substantive session.
Highlighting
some of the Commission’s achievements in his concluding remarks, Mr.
Towpik said agreement had been reached on the agenda for the three-year
cycle, of which 2009 was the first. Working Group I, on
“Recommendations for achieving the objective of nuclear disarmament and
non-proliferation of nuclear weapons”, had conducted very good
discussions. Working Group II, on “Elements of a draft declaration of
the 2010s as the fourth disarmament decade”, also had extensive
discussions which could lead to a way forward next year.
He said a new political development was
emerging, with a growing understanding of the need for global
solutions for many problems. In that context, there was also a need to
review approaches and thinking in disarmament, in order to revitalize
the international disarmament agenda. The Commission had been created
as a deliberative body to recommend aspects of disarmament and must,
therefore, be open to new ideas, for which experts could be invited --
an idea that should be kept in mind for next year.
The Commission also needed some
critical self-assessment and, if necessary, improvement of its methods
of work, he said, and suggested that next year the Commission might
devote some meetings to those issues. He hoped the Commission would
become a real centre of reflection on disarmament issues.
The Commission adopted by consensus its
report, containing the reports of its Working Group I and Working
Group II, which were introduced by their Chairpersons: Paulo Cuculi
(Italy) and Johann Paschalis (South Africa), respectively.
The Commission, a specialized,
deliberative body within the United Nations multilateral disarmament
machinery, provides a forum for focused deliberation of two or three
specific items usually including one on nuclear weapons and one on
conventional arms with the goal of achieving consensus to strengthen or
create disarmament norms through the submission of concrete
recommendations to the General Assembly
