A/HRC/13/47
89.
The Special Rapporteur invites the international community:
(a)
To emphasize the need for an integrated approach that includes the
prevention of violations, effective protection of human rights, provision of care and
assistance in an accessible and accountable manner, participation of the people in the
enjoyment of their rights and freedoms and ensuring the country’s development path
in a democratic setting;
(b)
To advocate strongly for the responsibility of the authorities to protect
the people of the country, taking on that responsibility should the national authorities
fail to do so, and to call for a “people first” rather than the current “military first”
policy, complemented by an equitable development process, food aid and food
security, with due respect for the principle of “no access, no food”, coupled with
adequate monitoring;
(c)
To respect the rights of refugees, particularly the principle of nonrefoulement, and the human rights of migrants, and to mitigate the strictures of
national immigration laws that might otherwise lead to the detention or forced return
of refugees or asylum-seekers;
(d)
To maximize dialogue with the Government of the Democratic People’s
Republic of Korea to promote dispute resolution and to enlarge the space for human
rights discourse and action, offering relevant incentives and graduated measures,
possibly linked with security guarantees, as appropriate;
(e)
To address impunity from different viewpoints, whether in terms of
State responsibility and/or individual criminal responsibility, and to enable the
totality of the United Nations system, especially the Security Council, and its affiliates,
such as the International Criminal Court, to take measures to prevent egregious
violations, protect people from victimization and provide effective redress.
