Congress welcomed an International Court of Justice ruling on UN peacekeeping expenses. The Court said Middle East and Congo operation costs count as UN 'expenses of the Organization.' This makes those costs binding assessments that all UN members must pay.
The Congress expresses its satisfaction that the International Court of Justice has decided that the expenditures authorized in resolutions of the United Nations General Assembly relating to operations in the Middle East and in the Congo are “expenses of the Organization” within the meaning of the United Nations Charter, thereby providing a sound basis for obtaining prompt payment of assessments for such expenditures by making them obligations of all members of the United Nations.
