  • The United Nations Security Council Resolution 6 is a resolution that the United Nations Security Council voted unanimously on May 17, 1946 in its 42nd session. She dealt with the admission procedure for new members of the United Nations (UN). Specifically, the Security Council named various dates and set up a committee to review the admission candidates.

    content

    The Security Council took note of the content of Article 4 of the Charter of the United Nations, which regulates the admission criteria and the admission procedure for new member states of the UN.

    He also noted that the General Assembly , which accepts new members on the recommendation of the Security Council, planned to meet on September 3, 1946.

    The Security Council decided to deal with applications for membership received by the UN Secretary-General in specially scheduled meetings in August 1946.

    Any motion received by the Secretary-General before July 15 should be reviewed by a committee consisting of one representative from each Security Council member. Its report should be submitted to the Security Council by August 1 at the latest.

    Subsequent change

    On July 24, 1946, at its 51st session, the Security Council decided that all dates in Resolution 6 would be retrospectively changed due to the postponement of the General Assembly meeting. They should be postponed by the exact amount of time that the General Assembly later met.

    consequences

    As planned, the Security Council discussed the admission of various candidates in August 1946. In resolution 8 of August 29, he recommended the admission of Afghanistan , Iceland and Sweden . The recommendation to admit Siam (today's Thailand ) was not made until Resolution 13 of December 12th.
