De Mistura added that the results of the embargoes decided until now by the UN haven't been excellent, especially global sanctions, that strengthen the regimes and hit the population hardly. To apply sanctions and embargoes without feeling guilty, De Mistura has suggested: 1) that sanctions should be decided by the Security Council, 2) that they concern weapons and other specific products, with precise and official objectives and duration, 3) that every time there's a fund for aids to the civilians, and 4) that they are accompanied by aonitoring of the effects on the population and by the introduction of the International Tribunal. P.S.: Sorry for my mistakes in the translation. I hope you can understand the meaning of it anyway. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a discussion list run by the Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq.
