Argentinië

26-11-1984

[...] the Argentine Republic rejects the extension of the application of the Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, adopted in Paris on 16 November 1972 by the General Conference of UNESCO, to the Malvinas Islands, South Georgia and South Sandwich, of which the Director General of UNESCO was notified by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on 29 May 1984, and reaffirms its rights of sovereignty over the Malvinas Islands, South Georgia and South Sandwich, which form an integral part of its national territory. The United Nations General Assembly has adopted resolutions 2065 (XX), 3160 (XXVIII), 31/49, 37/9 and 38/12, in which it recognizes the existence of a sovereignty dispute relating to the question of the Malvinas Islands and urges the Argentine Republic and the United Kingdom to conduct negotiations in order to find as soon as possible a peaceful and lasting solution to the dispute through the good offices of the Secretary-General of the United Nations who should inform the General Assembly of the progress achieved. As a result of this declaration, the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland indicated that they have no doubt as to their right, by notification to the Depositary under the relevant provisions of the treaty in question, to extend its application to the Falkland Islands and to the Falklands Islands Dependencies. The Government of the United Kingdom are therefore unable to regard the Argentine communication referred to above as having any legal effect.

Israël

22-03-1982

The instrument deposited by the Government of Oman contains a declaration of a political character in respect to Israel.

Bezwaar Israël, 22-03-1982

The instrument deposited by the Government of Oman contains a declaration of a political character in respect to Israel.

Syrië

13-08-1975

The accession of the Syrian Arab Republic to the Convention adopted by the General Conference of UNESCO at its seventeenth session on 16 November 1972 and its ratification by the Syrian Arab Government do not mean in any way its recognition of Israel and cannot result in the establishment of a direct contact with it that might be stipulated by the said Convention.
The Government of the Syrian Arab Republic views that the obligation emanated in Article 4 covers the occupied Arab territories and consequently, the Israeli occupation authorities are under obligation to preserve the cultural and natural heritage existing in the occupied territories in view of the fact that occupation does not eliminate sovereignty and that the occupation authorities are considered internationally responsible for any attenuation of the cultural and natural heritage even if Israel has not acceded to the Convention.
The Government of the Syrian Arab Republic views that paragraph 3 of Article 6 binds in its obligations therein contained the authorities occupying territories by force.The Government of the Syrian Arab Republic views that the international cooperation system stipulated in Article 7 binds the Member States to exert all possible aid to the State whose part of its territories is occupied for the sake of preserving the natural and cultural heritage in the occupied territories against the aggressions of the occupying authorities.
