Upholding+the+Statutes+of+Prisoners+of+War+according+to+the+Third+Geneva+Convention

Policy Statement It is our utmost concern to uphold this issue of the disarmament commission. Not only do we have the highest belief in the fact that there is no price that could be placed on human life, and that human rights are to be preserved no matter the circumstance. The Iraqi delegation recognizes, and points out that we do have a history in this issue; the largest and most scandalous on the part of the United States is that of the Abou Ghraib prison. However the US did acknowledge the atrocities, and reprimanded those responsible. We ask why is not possible to prevent his from happening in the first place? Why must governments be faced with the reality of inhumanity before they act? Thus we express our full support for a resolution on this issue, as we see it of the utmost importance.
