A/HRC/30/45 coercive measures and it would be very helpful if they could provide to the mandate the requisite information for future reports. 49. To these sanctions and unilateral coercive measures should be added the coercive measures applied by regional organizations on their own members, as referred to in paragraph 15 above. The League of Arab States, the African Union, the Organization of American States and other regional organizations have thus applied coercive measures on several of their member States. The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe also has few such measures applied against the arms trade in relation with NagornoKarabakh38 and a list of Russian individuals targeted.39 50. Apart from criminal entities, the targets of sanctions are States, mostly developing countries whose population has often been adversely affected thereby in the enjoyment of their human rights, and selected individuals within those States. These will constitute the focus of the work of the Special Rapporteur in recognition of the fact that the few more developed countries that are the target of unilateral coercive measures have broader options, including through import substitution or through retaliation, to mitigate the adverse impact of such measures on the enjoyment of human rights by their population.40 51. The aforementioned totals do not include unilateral coercive measures resorted to by other individual countries whether or not members of the European Union, including those harsh measures undermining the most basic rights of the Palestinian people. Taking those additional individual measures into account, and even excluding criminal entities rightly targeted, it is likely that there are currently over 75 targets of such measures, but the number of countries targeted are of course less than half this number because western source countries tend to have the same target countries in sight. However, in the absence of centralized data, these figures are at best an estimate. Behind these quantitative data, there are millions of people who are prevented from enjoying their basic human rights. One needs to exclude from this count the drug dealers, terrorists or “kleptocrats” who have also been targeted. 52. The Special Rapporteur will undertake a broad-based fact-finding approach towards all stakeholders to establish pragmatically the extent of the adverse impact of unilateral coercive measures, while trying to ascertain the nature of the human rights at jeopardy, whether civil and political or the right to development or cultural or social rights. He will then promote a United Nations-wide rule-based response that can prevent, minimize and redress the adverse impact of unilateral coercive measures on human rights. C. Drafting of guidelines and formulation of recommendations 53. The elaboration of draft guidelines on ways and means to prevent, minimize and redress the adverse impact of unilateral coercive measures on human rights will be an 38 39 40 See Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Decisions based on the Interim Report on Nagorno-Karabakh, Committee of Senior Officials, Journal No. 2, Annex 1, Seventh Committee on Senior Officials meeting, Prague, 27 and 28 February 1992 See OSCE, Monaco Declaration and resolutions adopted by the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly at the twenty-first annual session, 2012, resolution on the rule of law in the Russian Federation: case of Sergei Magnitsky, available from www.oscepa.org/meetings/annual-sessions/2012-monaco-annualsession/2012-monaco-final-declaration/1676-07. For example. the Russian Federation has recently decided to halt the import of agricultural goods, and in particular of pork meat, from the European Union as a result of its sanctions.
