Summary
Reaffirms that the universal realization of the right of all peoples, including those under colonial, foreign and alien domination, to self determination is a fundamental condition for the effective guarantee and observance of human rights; declares its firm opposition to acts of foreign military intervention, aggression and occupation, since these have resulted in the suppression of the right of peoples to self determination and other human rights in certain parts of the world; calls upon those States responsible to cease immediately their military intervention in and occupation of foreign countries and territories; deplores the plight of millions of refugees and displaced persons who have been uprooted as a result of the aforementioned acts, and reaffirms their right to return to their homes voluntarily in safety and honour; requests the Commission on Human Rights to continue to give special attention to the violation of human rights, especially the right to self determination, resulting from foreign military intervention, aggression or occupation; requests the Secretary General to report on the question to the General Assembly at its 61st session under the item entitled "Right of peoples to self determination".
