RESOLUTION ADOPTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
[on the report of the Special Political and Decolonization Committee
(Fourth Committee) (A/49/630)]
49/43.
The situation in the occupied territories of Croatia
The General Assembly,
Reaffirming the relevant principles of the Charter of the United Nations
and, in particular, the principle of inadmissibility of the acquisition of
territory through the use of force,
Stressing the importance of efforts to restore peace in the entire
territory of the Republic of Croatia as well as to preserve its territorial
integrity within the internationally recognized borders, and emphasizing in
this regard that the territories comprising the United Nations Protected Areas
are integral parts of the territory of the Republic of Croatia,
Alarmed and concerned by the fact that the ongoing situation in the
Serbian-controlled parts of Croatia is de facto allowing and promoting a state
of occupation of parts of the sovereign Croatian territory, and thus seriously
jeopardizing the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of
Croatia,
Rejecting the odious policies and practices of ethnic cleansing and
their consequences, and all other violations of international humanitarian
law,
Emphasizing that the Serbian-controlled territories of Croatia must be
peacefully reintegrated into the rest of the country, under the close
supervision of the international community,
