Summary
Affirms that the international fight against drug trafficking should not in any way justify violation of the principles enshrined in the Charter of UN and international law; requests the UN International Drug Programme in its report to analyse world-wide trends in illicit traffic and transit in narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, including methods and routes used, and to recommend ways and means for improving the capacity of States along those routes to deal with all aspects of the drug problem; calls upon the international community to provide increased economic and technical support to Governments that request it in support of programmes of alternative development that take fully into account the cultural traditions of peoples; calls for completion of the updated System-Wide Action Plan on Drug Abuse Control in full cooperation with the Administrative Committee on Coordination in time for the review of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs at its 37th session, and for the consideration of the Economic and Social Council at its regular session of 1994 and of the General Assembly at its 49th session; requests that the System-Wide Action Plan be reviewed and updated on a biennial basis; urges all Governments to provide the fullest possible support to the UN Internationlal Drug Programme, in particular by increasing voluntary contributions to it.
