UN General Assembly
1992

Europe, submitted, in his capacity as Special Rapporteur of the Commission on Human Rights, a report containing a number of proposals, which should be implemented as quickly as possible. I am thinking of the immediate necessity to disarm irregular armed forces and civilians, and the expansion of the mandate of the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR) to the whole of Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to be able to collect information on human rights violations and to deal with them. Another of Mr. Mazowiecki's important ideas is the creation of an investigative commission to determine the fate of the thousands of missing persons. At this point, let me express my firm conviction that ordinary people, both Serbs and Montenegrins, want prosperity and, first and foremost, peace. The abhorrent acts carried out under "ethnic cleansing", the torturing of innocent men and women in camps, the shelling of defenceless citizens: all these crimes are being ordered and carried out by individuals who cannot claim to act in the name of their people. Appropriate machinery must be established
