UN General Assembly
1956

This interpretation of the Charter by Uruguay is recognized today as irrefutable by the leading authorities in international law, and has been stoutly upheld at this session of the General Assembly by various delegations, including that of Argentina and of States from other continents.

An important step forward was the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which world opinion has taken as an expression of the spirit of the United Nations. We hope that the convention on the rights and the duties of States and the guarantees of the exercise of fundamental rights and freedoms will take shape in the near future.
