"Der Sicherheitsrat bestimmt, dass die Vereinten Nationen ihre vitale Rolle in Irak weiter ausbauen ..."
"The Security Council resolves that the United Nations should strengthen its vital role in Iraq"

... Aber das Kommando bleibt bei den USA. Der Resolutionsentwurf der USA (im Wortlaut)
New US draft resolution (Full text)

Die USA haben auch in ihrem neuen Entwurf für eine Irak-Resolution der UN auf die Festlegung eines genauen Zeitplans für die Übergabe der Macht an die Iraker verzichtet. Dies und die weiterhin mangelnde Beteiligung der Vereinten Nationen an den Entscheidungsprozessen in der "Nachkriegs"-(Un-)Ordnung lassen eine Verabschiedung der von den USA eingebrachten Resolution im UN-Sicherheitsrat unsicher erscheinen. Frankreich und Russland sowie der Generalsekretär Kofi Annan haben sich bisher kritisch zu dem Entwurf geäußert und wesentliche Nachbesseerungen verlangt. Es fragt sich, ob auch dieser Entwurf, so wie sein Vorgänger, der Entwurf vom 4. September, am Widerspruch anderer Veto-Mächte im UN-Sicherheitsrat scheitert.

Im Folgenden dokumentieren wir den neuen Entwurf der US-Regierung im Wortlaut (englisch) und geben zuvor eine Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Passagen in deutsch.


Wortauszüge aus dem US-Resolutionsentwurf

UNO soll "vitale Rolle weiter ausbauen" - "Besetzung nur vorübergehend"


Die USA sprechen dem Irak in ihrem neuen Entwurf für eine UNO-Resolutionsentwurf das Recht auf Souveränität und territoriale Unverletzbarkeit zu und versichern, dass die Besetzung des Landes nur vorübergehend sei. Weiter heißt es in dem neuen Entwurf, der am späten Abend des 1. Oktober (Ortszeit) erstmals im Wortlaut vorlag, wie folgt (Quelle: dpa und APA):

"Der Sicherheitsrat ...

4) bestimmt, dass die Vereinten Nationen ... ihre vitale Rolle im Irak weiter ausbauen, humanitäre Hilfe leisten und die wirtschaftliche sowie ... politische Wiederherstellung des Irak unterstützen bis das irakische Volk eine international anerkannte, repräsentative Regierung eingerichtet und ihr die Aufgaben der Kolationsmächte übertragen hat. ...

8) versichert, dass die Verwaltung des Irak mehr und mehr von den neuen Einheiten der irakischen Interimsverwaltung ausgeführt wird. Der Sicherheitsrat erwartet von der Koalition, wichtige Aufgaben weiterhin so schnell wie praktisch möglich zu übertragen. ...

9) bittet den Provisorischen Regierungsrat, in Zusammenarbeit mit der Koalition und dem UN-Sonderbeauftragten einen Zeitplan und ein Programm für die neue Verfassung des Irak und für demokratische Wahlen nach dieser Verfassung zu erarbeiten. ...

11) bittet den UN-Generalsekretär, Mittel der Vereinten Nationen und angegliederter Organisationen bei Bedarf für die Wahl verfügbar zu machen. ...

13) stellt fest, dass Sicherheit und Stabilität entscheidend für den Erfolg des politischen Prozesses sind ... und autorisiert eine multinationale Truppe unter einem Kommando mit dem Ziel, für die Sicherheit und Stabilität im Irak zu sorgen und für die Bedingungen, die das Einhalten des Zeitplans ermöglichen. ...

14) drängt die UN-Mitgliedstaaten, die Aufgaben unter diesem UN- Mandat zu unterstützen und militärische Hilfe für die oben erwähnte multinationale Truppe zu leisten ...

15) beschließt, die Erforderlichkeit und Aufgabe der multinationalen Truppe zu überprüfen..., wenn die Iraker eine international anerkannte und repräsentative Regierung eingesetzt haben ..."

New US draft resolution

The following is the full text of a new draft resolution on Iraq drawn up by the United States. (Source: Reuters news agency.)

The Security Council:

reaffirming its previous resolutions on Iraq, including resolution 1483 (2003) of 22 May 2003 and 1500 (2003) of 14 August 2003, and on threats to peace and security caused by terrorist acts, including resolution 1373 (2001) of 28 September 2001, and other relevant resolutions,

affirming that the terrorist bombings of the Embassy of Jordan on 7 August 2003, of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad on 19 August 2003, and of the Imam Ali Mosque in Najaf on 29 August 2003, are attacks on the people of Iraq, the United Nations, and the international community,

recalling and reaffirming the Statement of its President of 20 August 2003 (S/PRST/2003/13) and resolution 1502 (2003) of 26 August 2003,

underscoring that the sovereignty of Iraq resides in the state of Iraq, reaffirming the right of the Iraqi people freely to determine their own political future and control their own natural resources, reiterating its resolve that the day when Iraqis govern themselves must come quickly, and recognising the importance of international support, particularly that of countries in the region, Iraq's neighbours, and regional organisations, in taking forward this process expeditiously,

recognising that international support for restoration of conditions of stability and security is essential to the well-being of the people of Iraq as well as to the ability of all concerned to carry out their work on behalf of the people of Iraq, and welcoming Member State contributions in this regard under resolution 1483 (2003),

welcoming the decision of the Governing Council of Iraq to form a preparatory constitutional committee to prepare for a constitutional conference that will draft a constitution to embody the aspirations of the Iraqi people, and urging it to complete this process quickly,

determining that the situation in Iraq, although improved, continues to constitute a threat to international peace and security,

acting under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations,
  1. Expresses deep sympathy and condolences for the personal losses suffered by the Iraqi people and by the United Nations and the families of those United Nations personnel and other innocent victims who were killed or injured in these tragic attacks;
  2. Unequivocally condemns the terrorist bombings of the Embassy of Jordan on 7 August 2003, of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad on 19 August 2003, and of the Imam Ali Mosque in Najaf on 29 August 2003, and emphasises that those responsible must be brought to justice;

  4. Resolves that the United Nations, acting through the Secretary General, his Special Representative, and the United Nations Assistance Mission in Iraq, should strengthen its vital role in Iraq, including by providing humanitarian relief, promoting the economic reconstruction of and conditions for sustainable development in Iraq, and advancing efforts to restore and establish national and local institutions for representative government, as set out in relevant paragraphs of resolutions 1483 (2003) and 1500 (2003), and for this purpose encourages the Secretary General to pursue the course of action outlined in paragraphs 98 and 99 of the Report of the Secretary General of 17 July 2003 (S/2003/715);
  5. Reaffirms the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Iraq, and underscores, in that context, the temporary nature of the exercise by the Coalition Provisional Authority (Authority) of the specific responsibilities, authorities, and obligations under applicable international law recognised and set forth in resolution 1483 (2003), until an internationally recognised, representative government is established by the people of Iraq and assumes the responsibilities of the Authority;
  6. Welcomes the positive response of the international community, in particular by the Arab League on 9 September 2003, to the establishment of the broadly representative Governing Council as an important step towards an internationally recognized, representative government;

  11. Requests the Secretary General to ensure that the resources of the United Nations and associated organisations are available, if requested by the Iraqi Governing Council, to help establish an electoral process in Iraq in furtherance of the programme provided by the Governing Council in paragraph nine above, and encourages other organisations with expertise in this area to support the Iraqi Governing Council, if requested;
  12. Requests the Secretary General to report to the Security Council on the work of the Special Representative with respect to his responsibilities under this resolution, including the development of a timetable and programme under paragraph nine, and the implementation thereof;
  13. Determines that the provision of security and stability is essential to the successful completion of the political process as outlined in paragraph nine above and to the ability of the United Nations to contribute effectively to that process and the implementation of resolution 1483 (2003), and authorises a multinational force under unified command to take all necessary measures to contribute to the maintenance of security and stability in Iraq, including for the purpose of ensuring necessary conditions for the implementation of the timetable and programme as well as to contribute to the security of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq, the Governing Council of Iraq and other institutions of the Iraqi interim administration, and key humanitarian and economic infrastructure;

  17. Appeals to Member States and the international financial institutions to strengthen their efforts to assist the people of Iraq in the reconstruction and development of their economy, and urges those institutions to take immediate steps to provide their full range of loans and other financial assistance to Iraq, working with the Governing Council as the principal body of the Iraqi interim administration, and appropriate Iraqi ministries;
  18. Urges Member States and international and regional organisations to support the Iraq reconstruction effort initiated at the 24 June 2003 United Nations Technical Consultations, including through substantial pledges at the 23-24 October 2003 International Donors Conference in Madrid;
  19. Calls upon Member States and concerned organisations to help meet the needs of the Iraqi people by providing resources necessary for the rehabilitation and reconstruction of Iraq's economic infrastructure;
  20.

  21. Requests that the United States, on behalf of the multinational force as outlined in paragraph 13 above, report to the Security Council on the efforts and progress of this force as appropriate and not less than every six months;
