NEW YORK (IDN) – Die Charta der Vereinten Nationen hat wichtige Normen des Völkerrechts konsolidiert. In ihrer Präambel wird der Beschluss bekräftigt, “die nachfolgenden Generationen vor der Geißel des Krieges zu bewahren, die zweimal zu unseren Lebzeiten unsagbares Leid über die Menschheit gebracht hat”. Zum Zeitpunkt der Verabschiedung der Konvention war die Welt durch zwei aufeinander folgende Kriege, die Europa und andere Regionen direkt betrafen, tief erschüttert.

NEW YORK (IDN) — The Charter of the United Nations consolidated important norms of international law. Its Preamble affirms the decision to “save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind”. At the time of its adoption, the world was deeply shocked by two successive wars that directly involved Europe and other regions. In spite of the lofty purposes expressed in the Charter, several armed conflicts in many parts of the globe have marked the seventy-seven years of the United Nations’ existence.
