Summary of work
Background (source: A/80/100)
At its sixty-first session, the General Assembly, under the item entitled “Report of the International Law Commission on the work of its fifty-eighth session”, took note of the draft articles on diplomatic protection adopted by the International Law Commission, and decided to include in the provisional agenda of its sixty-second session an item entitled “Diplomatic protection” (resolution 61/35).
At its seventy-seventh session, the Assembly decided to include in the provisional agenda of its eightieth session the item entitled “Diplomatic protection” and, taking into account the written comments submitted to the Secretary-General, as well as the views expressed in the debates held at the sixty-second, sixty-fifth, sixty-eighth, seventy-first, seventy-fourth and seventy-seventh sessions of the Assembly, to continue to examine the question of a convention on diplomatic protection, or any other appropriate action, on the basis of the articles on diplomatic protection, with a view to identifying any difference of opinion on the articles (resolution 77/105).
