GENERAL SECURITY «ifll SWKB ^KJft^//JW ^ October 197^ COUNCIL -aORIGINAL™ : ENGLISH/FRENCH/ SPANISH LETTER DATED 20 SEPTEMBER 1971* FROM THE SECRETARY-GENERAL TO GOVERNMENTS' CONTAINING A FURTHER APPEAL FOR VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS FOR THE FINANCING OF THE UNITED NATIONS PEACE-KEEPING FORCE IN CYPRUS I/ I have the honour to refer to my letter of 12 July 197^ in which I addressed an appeal to your Government for a voluntary contribution to meet the cost of the United Nations Peace-keeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP). Costs at that time were estimated at not less than $6.6 million for the maintenance of the Force throughout the six-month period 16 June 197^-15 December 197^, authorized by the Security Council in its resolution 3^9 (197^) of 29 May 197^. My letter also referred to the accumulated deficit of $19.9 million from earlier years of the Cyprus operation which the Organization has hot to date been able to meet because of lack of funds. As Your Excellency knows, recent events in Cyprus have necessitated the substantial reinforcement of UHFICYP. From 2,363 all ranks on 15 July the strength of the Force has had to be increased to a total of h,k02 all ranks as of 12 September, and I take this opportunity to pay tribute to the troop contributing countries for their prompt response to my request for reinforcements. In the extremely difficult situation that has prevailed in the island, the increased strength has been fully utilized by UNFICYP in its efforts to maintain the cease-fire, to prevent a recurrence of intercommunal strife and to protect and bring relief to the civilian population in danger of such strife. UNFICYP facilities and resources are being used on a large scale in connexion with the programme of United Nations humanitarian assistance that is being co-ordinated by the High Commissioner for Refugees. A consequence of the strengthening of UNFICYP will be a substantial increase in costs to the United Nations, over and above previously reported estimates of $6.6 million for the period to 15 December 197^« The size of the Force has been almost doubled and it has been necessary also to incur additional expenses for vehicles and equipment required by the augmented Force due to the greatly stepped-up tempo of its activity during the recent critical weeks. The rate of utilization of its consumable stores and supplies has also increased greatly due . 17 Addressed to all States Members of the United Nations and members of the specialized agencies. 7^-26610 S/11528 English Page 2 not only to its greater activity but also to relief and humanitarian aid which it has been called upon to provide in the performance of its duties . The need for additional funds to maintain UNFICYP is urgent. My tentative estimate is that the costs of maintaining this larger Force in Cyprus will be not less than double the previous cost, which means that the Organization will require contributions in the amount of $13-1^- million for every six-month period during which the Force remains at its present level. It is my earnest hope that your Government will take into special consideration this greatly increased need in determining its response to my appeal for voluntary contributions to liquidate the accumulated deficit and to maintain the Force through 15 December (Signed) Kurt WALDHEIM Secretary-General C t c C SY8£ MOST IMBED NICOSIA 8:17 20 13362 = UHATIOHS MOST IJ1MED NICOSIA £17 SO 1S362 a trt '.

Mi 1 i tary . sjL tua fcioft, ; Since the entry into force of the current cease-fire on 16 August 1974, the situation has improved and the cease-fire has generally been holding. But persistent problems and incidents in certain areas: ~"~" (a) Forward movement of Turkish forces into areas which they had not previously occupied, but which the Turkish authorities have considered to be within the lines determined by them as the limits of their advance. (Chiefly in Famagusta district. ) (b) In Nicosia, there have been minor encroachments along the Green Line, looting, setting of fires in houses on Greek side of the line. 3. In all the areas of confrontation, UNFICYP has made _ strenuous efforts to assist as far as possible in maintaining the cease-fire and has protested violations by either side. 4. Atrocitier s and mass murders; This is a tragic problem. *SEaJ.5.«fssaftsi>- !saffl5! Complaints have been made by both sides. A few days ago in the village of Maratha, a large number of bodies, apparently J Sis^..ai^Kl>tK^'^l^ff^n^i^i<rSi^-Jv^af ' *• •*• •* of Turkish Cypriots, were found, and as of last night at least 84 had been exhumed. 2.

UNFICYP has strongly protested this violation of the cease-fire. -— """-"•°* - 2 - 5. UNFICYP has faced difficulties in investigating allega- tions of atrocitie^s particularly in the area under Turkish control. Tne^SGovemment now takes the position that UNFICYP may investigate atrocities in Greek controlled areas provided it can do the same in areas occupied by Turkish troops.

  • United Nations Force Headquarters Handbook
    United Nations Force Headquarters Handbook UNITED NATIONS FORCE HEADQUARTERS HANDBOOK November 2014 United Nations Force Headquarters Handbook Foreword The United Nations Force Headquarters Handbook aims at providing information that will contribute to the understanding of the functioning of the Force HQ in a United Nations field mission to include organization, management and working of Military Component activities in the field. The information contained in this Handbook will be of particular interest to the Head of Military Component I Force Commander, Deputy Force Commander and Force Chief of Staff. The information, however, would also be of value to all military staff in the Force Headquarters as well as providing greater awareness to the Mission Leadership Team on the organization, role and responsibilities of a Force Headquarters. Furthermore, it will facilitate systematic military planning and appropriate selection of the commanders and staff by the Department of Peacekeeping Operations. Since the launching of the first United Nations peacekeeping operations, we have collectively and systematically gained peacekeeping expertise through lessons learnt and best practices of our peacekeepers. It is important that these experiences are harnessed for the benefit of current and future generation of peacekeepers in providing appropriate and clear guidance for effective conduct of peacekeeping operations. Peacekeeping operations have evolved to adapt and adjust to hostile environments, emergence of asymmetric threats and complex operational challenges that require a concerted multidimensional approach and credible response mechanisms to keep the peace process on track. The Military Component, as a main stay of a United Nations peacekeeping mission plays a vital and pivotal role in protecting, preserving and facilitating a safe, secure and stable environment for all other components and stakeholders to function effectively.

  • Summary of AG-011 United Nations Executive Office of the Secretary-General (EOSG) (1946-Present)
    Summary of AG-011 United Nations Executive Office of the Secretary-General (EOSG) (1946-present) Title United Nations Executive Office of the Secretary-General (EOSG) (1946-present) Active Dates 1919-2014 Administrative History The Executive Office of the Secretary-General (EOSG) was established initially in 1946 to assist the Secretary-General with relations with members and organs of the United Nations, and with specialized agencies and non-governmental organizations, as well as to assist with policy and coordination of the Secretariat. It was established shortly after the first Secretary-General of the United Nations took office following appointment by the General Assembly on 1 February 1946. The Executive Office of the Secretary-General "assists the Secretary-General in the performance of those functions which he does not delegate to the departments and for which he retains personal responsibility. These functions include consultation with governments and the heads of the specialized agencies and the supervision of special projects" (YUN, 1947-1948) It also aids in policy creation and implementation, coordinates the activities of the departments, publications and correspondence, and advises on UN protocol. The following Secretariat bodies reported to the Secretary-General from the beginning: the Department of Security Council Affairs, the Department of Economic Affairs, the Department of Social Affairs, the Department of Trusteeship and Information from Non-Self-Governing Territories, the Department of Public Information, the Department of Legal Affairs, the Department of Conference and General Services, and the Department of Administrative and Financial Services. From 1946 through the 1950s the EOSG was responsible for protocol and liaison with diplomatic representatives, as well as for relationships with non-governmental organizations, communications with member state representatives and related, and for the coordination and support of General Assembly activities.

    Óglaigh na hÉireann MEDALS OF THE IRISH DEFENCE FORCES MEDALS OF THE IRISH DEFENCE FORCES 1st Edition (October 2010) CONTENTS SECTION TITLE PAGE No. Irish Defence Forces Medals 7 - 26 UN Medals 27 - 67 EU Medals 69 - 80 UN Mandated Medals 81 - 90 War of Independence Medals 91 - 96 Wearing of Medals 97 - 105 Index 106 - 107 Acknowledgements and References 108 INTRODUCTION The award of medals for services rendered is generally associated with the military. Military medals are bestowed in recognition of specific acts or service which can vary in significance from routine duty to bravery and valour. Irrespective of their provenance, military medals are highly valued and are regarded as representing all that is best in the field of human endeavour. They are seen as being earned and merited by the recipient and in the Defence Forces this sense of worth is enhanced by the strict conditions attaching to the awards. Medals in the Defence Forces fall into two broad categories: medals awarded by the Minister for Defence on the recommendation of the Chief of Staff and medals awarded to qualifying personnel for service overseas on Government approved missions. The first category comprises the Military Medal for Gallantry and the Distinguished Service Medal, which can be awarded for acts of bravery, gallantry, courage, leadership or devotion to duty and the Military Star, a posthumous decoration awardable to personnel killed as a direct result of hostile action. These medals may only be awarded following rigorous investigation by a board of officers appointed by the Chief of Staff. Also in this category are the Service Medal, which recognises service in the Defence Forces for a minimum fixed period and the United Nations Peacekeepers Medal, which recognises service overseas with a UN mandated mission.
