Spørgsmål 84
Er ministeren enig i de synspunkter, som Schweiz’ repræsentant til FN giver udtryk
for i FN nyheden “Pointing to “Cycle of Violence”, Senior UN Official Urges Restraint
Following Air Strikes in Yemen” fra 12. januar 2024, hvor der står: “Switzerland’s delegate
recalled that, under the resolution, Member States’ right to defend their vessels is strictly
limited to military measures to intercept attacks against merchant vessels and warships
to protect them and the persons on board. Noting that any military operation that goes
beyond this immediate protection would be disproportionate — and not covered by the
resolution — he voiced concern over the military strikes, jf. https://press.un.org/en/2024/
sc15565.doc.htm.
Spørgsmålet er stillet efter ønske fra Christian Friis Bach (RV).
