Other legal questions

The Special Committee on the Charter of the United Nations and on the Strengthening of the Role of the Organization continued in 2002 to consider, among its other standing agenda items, proposals relating to the maintenance of international peace and security in order to strengthen the Organization, and, as a priority, the implementation of Charter provisions on assistance to third States affected by the application of sanctions under Chapter VII. The Special Committee completed its work on the prevention and peaceful settlement of disputes between States, and the General Assembly adopted a resolution on the subject in November.
