Switzerland now
190th member of
United Nations
UNITED NATIONS (AP) —
Switzerland became the 19()th
member of the United Nations on
Tuesday, preserving its historic
neutrality but stepping more
actively onto the world stage.
The admission of Switzerland
was one of the first orders of busi
ness at the opening of the new
session of the General Assembly,
the gathering place of the world s
nations. Delegates burst into
applause when the new assembly
president, Czech Foreign
Minister Jan Kavan. declared
Switzerland the 190th member.
French Foreign Minister
Dominique de Villepin, on behalf
of Switzerland’s five neighbors,
recommended its application for
membership after more than 50
years on the sidelines.
‘The role of Switzerland is
now crucial on issues of develop
ment. international law and
human rights.” he said. "The
entry of Switzerland will
strengthen the United Nations.”
noted that
Al-Qaid
De Villepin
Switzerland was the only nation
to decide to join the l nited
Nations after a popular referen
dum. which would strengthen
“the democratic premise of our
organization.”
In a Swiss referendum in
March, 55 percent voted in favor
of U.N. membership, heeding a
government campaign that said
rejection w'ould be disastrous for
the country’s international stand
ing and that neutrality had lost
much of its meaning.
A 1986 vote overwhelmingly
rejected U.N. membership.
At the end of the French min
ister’s speech, Kavan asked
whether the General Assembly
would accept the nxommenda-
