[The Argentine Government refers] to the attempt to extend the application of the
Agreement to the Islas Malvinas, Georgias del Sur and Sandwich del Sur on the part
of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland dated 11 March 2010.
The Argentine Government recalls that the Islas Malvinas, Georgias del Sur and Sandwich
del Sur and the surrounding maritime areas are an integral part of the Argentine national
territory and are illegally occupied by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern
Ireland, being the subject of a
sovereignty dispute between both countries which is recognized by several international
organizations.
The General Assembly of the United Nations adopted resolutions 2065 (XX), 316[0] (XXVIII),
31/49, 37/9, 38/12, 39/6, 40/21, 41/40, 42/19 and 43/25, in which the sovereignty
dispute referred to as
the "Question of the Malvinas Islands" is recognized and the Governments of the Argentine
Republic
and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland are urged to resume negotiations
in order
to find as soon as possible a peaceful and lasting solution to the dispute. Concurrently,
the Special
Committee on Decolonization of the United Nations has repeatedly affirmed this view.
Also, the General Assembly of the Organization of American States adopted, on 4 June
2009, a new pronouncement, in similar terms, on the question.
Therefore, the Argentine Government objects and rejects the British attempt to extend
the application of the Agreement on the Privileges and Immunities of the International
Criminal Court to the Islas Malvinas.
The Argentine Government reaffirms its legitimate sovereign rights over the Islas
Malvinas, Georgias del Sur and Sandwich del Sur and the surrounding maritime areas.

The Permanent Mission of Canada to the United Nations presents its compliments to
the Secretary-General of the United Nations and has the honour to refer to the Agreement
on the Privileges and Immunities of the International Criminal Court and the Secretary-General's
communication of 6 January 2015 C.N.12.2015.TREATIES-XVIII.13, relating to that treaty.
The Permanent Mission of Canada notes that this communication was made pursuant to
the Secretary- General's capacity as Depositary for the Agreement on the Privileges
and Immunities of the International Criminal Court. The Permanent Mission of Canada
notes the technical and administrative role of the Depositary, and that it is for
States Parties to a treaty, not the Depositary, to make their own determination with
respect to any legal issues raised by instruments circulated by a depositary.
In that context, the Permanent Mission of Canada notes that 'Palestine' does not meet
the criteria of a state under international law and is not recognized by Canada as
a state. Therefore, in order to avoid confusion, the Permanent Mission of Canada wishes
to note its position that in the context of the purported Palestinian accession to
the Agreement on the Privileges and Immunities of the International Criminal Court,
'Palestine' is not able to accede to this convention, and that the Agreement on the
Privileges and Immunities of the International Criminal Court does not enter into
force, or have an effect on Canada's treaty relations, with respect to the 'State
of Palestine'.

In February 2014 the Russian Federation launched armed aggression against Ukraine
and occupied a part of the territory of Ukraine – the Autonomous Republic of Crimea
and the city of Sevastopol, and today exercises effective control over certain districts
of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts of Ukraine. These actions are in gross violation
of the Charter of the United Nations and constitute a threat to international peace
and security. The Russian Federation, as the Aggressor State and Occupying Power,
bears full responsibility for its actions and their consequences under international
law.
The United Nations General Assembly Resolution A/RES/68/262 of 27 March 2014 confirmed
the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognized
borders. The United Nations also called upon all States, international organizations
and specialized agencies not to recognize any alteration of the status of the Autonomous
Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol.
In this regard, Ukraine states that from 20 February 2014 and for the period of temporary
occupation by the Russian Federation of a part of the territory of Ukraine – the Autonomous
Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol – as a result of the armed aggression
of the Russian Federation committed against Ukraine and until the complete restoration
of the constitutional law and order and effective control by Ukraine over such occupied
territory, as well as over certain districts of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts of
Ukraine, which are temporarily not under control of Ukraine as a result of the aggression
of the Russian Federation, the application and implementation by Ukraine of the obligations
under the above [Convention], as applied to the aforementioned occupied and uncontrolled
territory of Ukraine, is limited and is not guaranteed.
Documents or requests made or issued by the occupying authorities of the Russian Federation,
its officials at any level in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol
and by the illegal authorities in certain districts of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts
of Ukraine, which are temporarily not under control of Ukraine, are null and void
and have no legal effect regardless of whether they are presented directly or indirectly
through the authorities of the Russian Federation.
The provisions of the [Convention] regarding the possibility of direct communication
or interaction do not apply to the territorial organs of Ukraine in the Autonomous
Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol, as well as in certain districts of
the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts of Ukraine, which are temporarily not under control
of Ukraine. The procedure of the relevant communication is determined by the central
authorities of Ukraine in Kyiv.
