UN General Assembly
1965

51. The agenda for the present session includes, as in previous years, the item "Draft International Convenants on Human Rights". Nothing gives Ecuador more satisfaction than to proclaim its unlimited support for any endeavour to improve international protection for human rights. The most delicate section of the Covenants, that referring to the measures to be adopted for the application of the principles set forth in them, has yet to be approved. The Government of Ecuador reaffirms its support for the adoption of measures to put these instruments into effect, since without them the Covenants will have no practical value and no real effectiveness.
