This principle appears to have been reflected in the United Nations resolutions on the decolonisation of Gibraltar in the 1960s, which focused on the "interests" of the Gibraltarians.
Prinsip ini tampaknya terefleksikan dalam resolusi Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa tentang dekolonisasi Gibraltar tahun 1960-an, yang berfokus pada "kepentingan" dan bukan "kemauan" rakyat Gibraltar.
